A novel cationic metal-organic framework, FJI-Y6, was designed and constructed by combining [In3O(COO)6(H2O)3]+ with cationic linkers. FJI-Y6 exhibits highly efficient anion exchangeability. For example, Acid orange 7, with a single negative charge and which cannot be adsorbed effectively by previously reported MOFs, is captured and released rapidly by FJI-Y6.
