Abstract

A (3,24)-connected rht-type metal organic framework (MOF Cu-UBTA) containing a urea group was readily prepared by the solvothermal reaction between a hexacarboxylate ligand and Cu(NO3)2. Gas sorption investigations demonstrated its high porosity and high uptake capacities for CO2 and H2. Moreover, the MOF can act as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for Friedel–Crafts alkylation of N-methyl pyrrole or indole with nitroalkenes.
