  Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are coordination compounds that exhibit a very high crystallinity and porosity. The structure is built using cationic metal clusters as cornerstones, and organic ligands (often dicarboxylic acids) bridging the cornerstones together, commonly referred to as inorganic clusters and organic linkers respectively. MOFs have been investigated for their potential in e.g. gas storage, gas adsorption, gas separation and heterogeneous catalysis.[1] The research on metal-organic frameworks has grown exponentially during the last couple of decades. The University of Oslo (UiO) has been participating actively in the research, and has since 2008 developed its own successful series of zirconium-based MOFs, namely UiO-66, UiO-67 (figure shown below) and UiO-68. The success behind the UiO MOF-series is based on their unprecedented stability to thermal, chemical and physical decomposition.[2] 3,3’-dialkoxy-1,1’-biphenyl-4,4’-dicarboxylic acids have the potential for being interesting UiO-67 linkers with their excellent tunability of hydrophobicity and steric bulk. This is made possible by adjusting the length of the alkyl chain. Three biphenyl linkers designed for UiO-67 metal-organic frameworks, two which are previously unreported, have been synthesized and fully characterized.
