This work presents a novel synthetic approach to multicomponent MOFs by “standing on the shoulder of” a well-established one based on our new understanding on the self-assembly process. By making use of various chemical interactions during the self-assembly process, we could modulate the structural transformation from 3D ternary structures to 2D Quaternary structure.
