Synthesis and structural characterisation of the copper MOF : STAM-NMe2
Abstract
Here we demonstrate the synthesis and structural characterisation of a novel copper MOF: STAM-NMe2, developed using the linker 5-dimethylamino isophthalic acid. The material is a member of the STAM series of MOFs, with a Kagome lattice structure and contains two types of pore system. The structure was investigated using single crystal X-ray diffraction, variable temperature powder X-ray diffraction was used to determine the thermal stability of the MOF, and nitrogen BET adsorption was employed to determine the porosity of the material.
