S.E.A would like to thank the Royal Society and Wolfson Foundation for a merit award.Polymorphs of Zn(2-nIm)2 (compound 1 ) and Co(2-nIm)2 (compounds 2 and 3 ) (2-nIm = 2-nitroimidazole) have been prepared by two routes: solvothermal synthesis and recrystallisation of ZIF-65(Zn/Co). Compounds 1 and 2 are isostructural, with a tetrahedrally-connected framework topology related to, but different from, that of tridymite (lonsdaleite). Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis showed that in compound 1 (Pccn, Z = 8; a = 8.462(8) Å, b = 14.549(15) Å, c = 18.799(18) Å, V = 2314(4) Å3) there is rotational disorder for two of the three crystallographically-distinct linker types, which has been investigated computationally and by solid-state NMR spectroscopy. Detailed adsorption studies on a sample of 1 prepared by recrystallisation show 1.1 mmol g-1 uptake of CO2 at 0.1 bar (25 °C) with high affinity for CO2 over CH4 and N2 (adsorption enthalpies of 39.5, 26.0 and 18.5 kJ mol-1, respectively). A cobalt analogue (compound 2 ) with improved water stability (but lower porosity) has also been prepared. Changing the conditions of synthesis and recrystallisation gives rise to a cobalt 2-nitroimidazolate (Co(2-nIm)2, compound 3 ), which has a layered structure (I41/amd, a = 6.025(18) Å, c = 26.95(8) Å, V = 978.3(5) Å3) containing sheets of tetrahedrally-connected Co2+ cations composed of four membered rings, without porosity.PostprintPostprintPeer reviewe
