Popis: Three new water-stable In(III)-based metal–organic frameworks, namely, [In3(TTTA)2(OH)3(H2O)]·(DMA)3 (BUT-70, DMA = N,N-dimethylacetamide), [In3(TTTA)2(CH3O)3] (BUT-70A), and [In3(TTTA)2(OH)3] (BUT-70B), with rod-shaped secondary building units (SBUs) and an new acrylate-based ligand, (2E,2′E,2″E)-3,3′,3″-(2,4,6-trimethylbenzene-1,3,5-triyl)-triacrylate (TTTA3–) were obtained and structurally characterized. BUT-70A and -70B were generated in a single-crystal to single-crystal transformation fashion from BUT-70 through guest exchange followed by their removal. The solvents used for guest exchange were methanol and dichloromethane, respectively. Single-crystal structure analyses show that the guest exchange and removal process is accompanied by the substitution of coordinated water molecules of In(III) centers with uncoordinated carboxylate O atoms of TTTA3– ligands. Moreover, hydroxyl groups bridging two In(III) centers are also replaced by methoxyl groups in the transformation from BUT-70 to -70A. Overall...
