KAR-F37 MOF-801
Structure & Hydrostability

The SBU of MOF-801 is a zirconium oxide [Zr6(μ3–O)4(μ3–OH)4] octahedral cluster in which six Zr cations reside at the six polyhedron vertices of the octahedron are held together by eight μ3‑oxygen atoms. The eight equivalent equilateral faces are alternately capped by four μ3-OH and four μ3-O groups. The SBUs are connected to each other by ligands forming a net topology of ‘fcu’ type where each SBU is connected to twelve carboxylate groups from twelve ligands. It is a highly hydrostable MOF due to the strong bonding of zirconium with the oxygen atom of the carboxylate, acting as hard acid and base, respectively.
