N2 - Reaction of cerium ammonium nitrate and tetrafluoroterephthalic acid in water afforded two new metal-organic frameworks with UiO-66 [F4-UiO-66(Ce)] and MIL-140 [F4-MIL-140A(Ce)] topologies. The two compounds can be obtained in the same experimental conditions, just by varying the amount of acetic acid used as crystallization modulator in the synthesis. Both F4-UiO-66(Ce) and F4-MIL-140A(Ce) feature pores with size <8 Å, which classifies them as ultramicroporous. Combination of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and magnetic susceptibility measurements revealed that both compounds contain a small amount of Ce(III), which is preferentially accumulated near the surface of the crystallites. The CO 2 sorption properties of F4-UiO-66(Ce) and F4-MIL-140A(Ce) were investigated, finding that they perform better than their Zr-based analogues. F4-MIL-140A(Ce) displays an unusual S-shaped isotherm with steep uptake increase at pressure <0.2 bar at 298 K. This makes F4-MIL-140A(Ce) exceptionally selective for CO 2 over N 2 : the calculated selectivity, according to the ideal adsorbed solution theory for a 0.15:0.85 mixture at 1 bar and 293 K, is higher than 1900, among the highest ever reported for metal-organic frameworks. The calculated isosteric heat of CO 2 adsorption is in the range of 38-40 kJ mol -1 , indicating a strong physisorptive character.
