Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure describe metal-organic framework compositions comprising a pillar characterized by the formula (MbF5(O/H2O)), where Mb is selected from periodic groups IIIA, IIIB, IVB, VB, VIB, and VIII; and a square grid characterized by the formula (Ma(ligand)x), where Ma is selected from periodic groups IB, IIA, IIB, IIIA, IVA, IVB, VIB, VIIB, and VIII, ligand is a polyfunctional organic ligand, and x is 1 or more; wherein the pillaring of the square grid with the pillars forms the metal-organic framework.
