Abstract
The introduction of hydrophobic groups (e.g. methyl) at the most adjacent sites of each and every coordinating nitrogen atom of the bipyridine pillar linker in a carboxylate-based bridging MOF could shield the metal ions from attack by water molecules, and thus enhance the water resistance of the MOF structure significantly.
