a Reflux synthesis procedure for Zn-Bipy. b Large-scale production of Zn-Bipy within a single reaction vessel, yielding approximately 10 g of Zn-Bipy product. c PXRD patterns of Zn-Bipy subjected to various treatments: thermal treatment at 200 °C, immersion in boiling water for 24 hours, and synthesized via a scaled-up reflux method. Note that small variations in the relative intensities of diffraction peaks occur due to the effect of crystal orientation. d One-dimensional porous channels of Zn-Bipy as observed along the c-axis. e CO2 adsorption isotherm of Zn-Bipy at 195 K. Insert: pore size distribution plot calculated by NLDFT.
