Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main" xml:lang="en"> <title>Abstract</title> <p>A novel Zr‐chain based MOF, namely MIL‐163, was designed and successfully synthesized using a bis‐1, 2, 3‐trioxobenzene ligand. Endowed with large square‐shaped channels of 12 Å width, it shows remarkable water uptake (ca. 0.6 cm³ g⁻¹ at saturating vapor pressure) and a remarkable stability in simulated physiological media, where archetypical Zr carboxylate MOFs readily degrade.</p> </abstract>
