Interlayer Adaptive Crystal Enables Selective CO₂ and Benzene Recognition

Caption

A perfluorinated Zn(II) coordination sheet forms an interlayer adaptive crystal in which tiny ultramicropores trigger guest-induced expansion. Electrostatic interactions enable selective CO₂ uptake over N₂ and CH₄ and preferential benzene inclusion.
