Several new heterometallic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) based on tris (dipyrrinato) metalloligands and Ag+ salts are reported. MOFs were prepared systematically to examine the effects of the core metal ion, counteranion, and ligand structure on the topology of the resultant network. The effect of the metal ion (Fe3+ vs Co3+) on MOF structure was generally found to be negligible, thereby permitting the facile synthesis of trimetallic Fe/Co/Ag ...
