Nitrogen-rich metal–organic framework: Dye adsorptions and electrochemical performance

Abstract Developing novel metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) as electrode materials and exploring their electrochemical performance in detail are crucial for extending the application of MOFs. Herein, we prepared a MOF, that is, {[Ni(bcpt)(bimb) 3/2 (H 2 O) 2 ]·H 2 O} n ( 1 ) (H 2 bcpt = 3,5-bis(3-carboxyphenyl)-1,2,4-triazole, bimb = 4,4′-bis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)biphenyl) via a hydrothermal method, and explored its dye adsorptions and electrochemical performance.
