Abstract

Abstract : A microporous Zn‐based anionic metal–organic framework (MOF) was synthesized with triangular 4, 4′, 4′′‐(pyridine‐2, 4, 6‐triyl)tribenzoic acid. The anionic MOF material featuring open channels proved to be a good capturing agent for the cationic dye methylene blue. In addition, the Zn‐MOF demonstrated excellent catalytic activity for CO2 fixation by cycloaddition reaction with epoxides for the generation of cyclic carbonates.
