Here, we describe the synthesis of BCN-348, a new high-connected Zr-MOF built from an 8-connected (8-c) cubic Zroxocluster and an 8-c organic linker. BCN-348 contains a minimal edge-transitive 3,4,8-c eps net, and combines mesoporosity with thermal and hydrolytic stability. Encouraging results from preliminary studies on its use as a catalyst for hydrolysis of a nerve-agent simulant suggest its potential as an agent for detoxification of chemical weapons and other pernicious compounds.}, organization = {European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme, under grant agreement No 101019003}, organization = {Catalan AGAUR (project 2021 SGR 00458)}, organization = {the CERCA Programme/Generalitat de Catalunya, and the Spanish MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 (Project PID2020-113608RB-I00}, organization = {ICN2 is supported by the Severo Ochoa Centres of Excellence programme}, organization = {Grant CEX2021- 001214-S, funded by MCIN/AEI/10.13039.501100011033}, publisher = {Royal Society of Chemstry}, title = {A mesoporous Zr-based metal–organic framework driven by the assembly of an octatopic linker}, doi = {10.1039/d3cc01831h}, author = {Ortín Rubio, Borja and Carmona Fernández, Francisco Jesús}, }
