Abstract
Introducing 2,3-dimethyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium iodide (Dmim) as a monodentate ligand during the preparation of ZIF-8 yields ZIF-8 + (50) and ZIF-8 + (38) with cationic ‘missing linker’ defects. ZIF-8 + (38) adsorbs 125I2 and the resulting radioactive host-guest complex exhibits in vitro cytotoxicity comparable to that of Na125I against colon cancer cell line CT26.
