Abstract

The mesoporous framework [Cu(3)(L)(H(2)O)(3)]·(DMF)(35)·(H(2)O)(35) (NOTT-119) shows on desolvation a BET surface area of 4118(200) m(2) g(-1), a pore volume of 2.35 cm(3) g(-1), a total H(2) uptake of 101 mg g(-1) at 60 bar, 77 K and a total CH(4) uptake of 327 mg g(-1) at 80 bar, 298 K.
