Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="toc"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <graphic position="anchor" id="ga" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgj2qrm4zr0" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" />An interesting Co-based 3D framework exhibits a rare example where [Co(H₂O)₆]²⁺ and H₃O⁺ ions not only act as counterions to balance the negatively charged structure, but also may serve as templates in the assembly of the anionic framework with open hydrophilic channels.</p> </abstract>
