Uses
H
2L can be potentially used in the formation of highly porous nanotubular and ultramicroporous metal organic frameworks (MOFs) for greener applications like hydrogen storage, methane storage and gas separation.
General Description
9,10-Anthracenedicarboxylic acid (H2L) is an anthracene based dicarboxylic compound, which has a larger conjugating π-system that enables the development of fluorescent materials. It has interesting magnetic and luminescent properties. It can be used as a bridging carboxylic acid ligand with a steric bulk due to the presence of its anthracene ring.
