Abstract

A process for preparing an organometallic framework material comprising reacting at least one metal salt with at least one at least bidentate compound capable of coordination to the metal ion of said metal salt, in the presence of an aqueous solvent system and at least one base wherein at least one bidentate compound comprises at least carboxy group and at least one further group which is not a carboxy group and which is capable of forming a hydrogen bridge linkage.
