A Pillared-Layer Coordination Polymer Network Displaying Hysteretic Sorption: Cu2(pzdc)2(dpyg)n (pzdc= Pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylate; dpyg=1,2-Di(4-pyridyl)glycol)

A hysteretic adsorption and desorption profile (right) accompanied by a transformation of the crystal structure is observed for the title coordination polymer, which possesses a pillared-layer structure (left), on exposure to H2O or MeOH vapor under pressure.
