Wall decoration: Coordinatively unsaturated metal centers (CuII, CoII, and NiII) can be embedded in the pore wall of a microporous coordination polymer containing Schiff base type metalloligands [M(salphdc)]2− (H4salphdc=N,N′-o-phenylenebis(salicylideneimine-5,5′-dicarboxylic acid)). These polymers possess large 1D channels with dimensions approximately 14×14 Å2 (see structure).
