    Abstract:
    Three metal-oxide organic frameworks have been synthesized and characterized: vanadium 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate, V2O2F0.6(OH)1.4(BDC).0.4H 2O (1); indium 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate, In 2F2.2(OH)1.8(BDC).1.6H2O (2); and aluminum 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate Al2F3(OH)(BDC) (3). The three-dimensional structures of 1, 2, and 3 have the same framework topology as the previously reported vanadium (III) 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate, VIII2(OH)2F2(BDC). The frameworks consist of inorganic layers constructed from corner sharing ML 6 octahedra (M=V, In, Al and L=OH, F) linked by BDC ligands. The structures are related to a general class of perovskite-related layer structures with composition MM'X4. The layers show characteristic distortions that can be related to tilting of the ML 6 octahedra. In particular the structure of 1 consists of O-V distances that strongly alternate along the b axis. The electronic consequences of this distortion then create a tilting of the 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate ligand about the a axis.
