Confinement of Cd(II) by 2,2′ -Bipyridyl: Control of Structural Transformations and Porosity in Perfluorinated Biphenyldicarboxylate MOFs

Cadmium(II) can form complexes with coordination numbers 6 and 7, which makes them labile, especially with relatively weak ligands like perfluorinated carboxylates. Confining the coordination environment with chelating ligands such...
