[Y2(H2O)(BDC)3(DMF)]·(DMF)3: A rare 2-D (42.6)(45.6)2(48.62)(49.65.8) net with multi-helical-array and opened windows

In this work, we present a rare earth metal–organic framework, Y2(H2O)(BDC)3(DMF)]·(DMF)3 (BDC = 1,3-benzenedicarboxylate) 1, with a rare 2D (42.6)(45.6)2(48.62)(49.65.8) net, helical tubes with opposite chirality interweaving of triple-helical chains, opened windows and high thermal stability.
