Lauren K. Macreadie received her BBiomedSc/BSc(Hons) in 2011 from Monash University and then completed her PhD at the CSIRO and Monash University in 2016. Following her PhD, she worked at Trinity College Dublin in Ireland on water splitting MOF systems, and then in 2017 she moved to the CSIRO in Melbourne as a research scientist working on MOFs as adsorbents for respiratory canisters with the Defence Science and Technology Group. Lauren then transitioned to post-doctoral research at the CSIRO, followed by a move to Massey University in New Zealand as a chemistry lecturer in mid-2019. In mid-2020, Lauren moved to the University of Sydney as a post-doctoral researcher and soon after was awarded an Australian Research Council DECRA Fellowship where she investigates functional MOF materials. |

Abstract
Lightweight metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with large volume storage capabilities are highly sought after as solid adsorbents in gas storage applications. This is particularly important for hydrogen gas adsorbents and can be explored through constructing MOFs from magnesium, which is a light metal and can readily form lightweight frameworks. Recently, the use of bulky, 3D aliphatic linkers in MOF synthesis has resulted in materials with higher gas adsorption enthalpies at lower pressures. Here, we employ both aliphatic linkers and magnesium clusters to produce lightweight, aliphatic frameworks with potential use for gas adsorption applications. Two magnesium MOFs were synthesised, 3DL-MOF-2 and 3DL-MOF-3 (3DL = 3DLinker), and structurally investigated using single crystal X-ray diffraction. While these MOFs do not have any accessible void spaces and therefore cannot be used for gas adsorption, they create a platform for future magnesium aliphatic MOF research to form open frameworks.
Keywords: metal–organic framework, crystallography, materials characterisation, cubane-1,4-dicarboxylic acid, porous coordination polymer, single crystal X-ray diffraction, magnesium MOF, hydrogen storage.
