General description

Basolite®F300 (Fe-BTC) is a porous metal organic framework (MOF) that is used as a highly active catalyst for Lewis acid reactions such as acetalization of aldehydes and aldol condensation. It has a hybrid supertetrahedral build up from oxocentered trimmers of iron(III) octahedron that are connected by trimesate anions.
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product has been enhanced for energy efficiency. Find details here.

Application

Fe-BTC based MOF can be used in greener applications such as energy storage through lithium ion batteries. It can also be used in the supercritical adsorption of CO2.
