Abstract

The first example of a planar-chiral building block being used for chiral metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is presented. The porous MOF structure combined with the chiral properties of the planar linker allows a selective adsorption, demonstrated for a nonpolar terpene limonene in thin surface-mounted MOF films.
