Abstract
We report on the use of a novel tritopic phosphonic linker, 2,4,6-tris[3-(phosphonomethyl)phenyl]-1,3,5-triazine, for the synthesis of a layered zirconium phosphonate, named UPG-2. Comparison with the structure of the permanently porous UPG-1, based on the related linker 2,4,6-tris[4-(phosphonomethy...

| Abstract: |
We report on the use of a novel tritopic phosphonic linker, 2,4,6-tris[3-(phosphonomethyl)phenyl]-1,3,5-triazine, for the synthesis of a layered zirconium phosphonate, named UPG-2. Comparison with the structure of the permanently porous UPG-1, based on the related linker 2,4,6-tris[4-(phosphonomethyl)phenyl]-1,3,5-triazine, reveals that positional isomerism disrupts the porous architecture in UPG-2 by preventing the formation of infinitely extended chains connected through Zr–O–P–O–Zr bonds. The presence of free, acidic P–OH groups and an extended network of hydrogen bonds makes UPG-2 a good proton conductor, reaching values as high as 5.7 × 10−4 S cm−1. |
