Recently developed basophilic method was adopted to synthesize phenolic hydroxyl bridged lanthanide MOFs (Ln-MOFs) 1 and 2, based on a drug ligand of salicylic acid. 1 and 2 have the general formula of [Ln(HL1)L1·H2O]n (H2L1 = salicylic acid, Ln = Tb and Gd), they are characterized by X-ray single c...
