a Schematic illustration of the strategy of side chain induced chirality and the structure of planar HATI ligand and distorted chiral HATI ligand. b Synthesis of chiral HATI ligands and corresponding chiral 2D c-MOFs with different chiral substitutions. Ligand-(S)-Ph denoted by red color, ligand-(R)-Ph denoted by blue color, and ligand-(S)-Na denoted by yellow color.
