Abstract
AbstractWe designed and synthesized A2B2 type tetraphenyl benzene monomers (p‐, m‐, and o‐TetPB) which have the para‐, meta, and ortho‐substituted isomeric structures, for the direct construction of isomeric frameworks. Interestingly, both kagome (kgm) and monoclinic square (sql) framework isomers are produced from either p‐TetPB (C2h symmetry) or m‐TetPB (C2v symmetry) by changing reaction solvents, while their isomeric structures are characterized by X‐ray diffraction, computational simulation, microscopy, and sorption isotherm measurements. Only sql frameworks was formed for o‐TetPB (C2v symmetry), irrespective of reaction solvents. These results disclose a unique feature in the framework structural formation, that is, the geometry of monomers directs and dominates the lattice growth process while the solvent plays a role in the perturbation of chain growth pattern. The isomeric frameworks exhibit highly selective adsorption of vitamin B12 owing to pore shape and size differences.
