Single crystal X-ray analysis
The single crystals of investigated compounds DUT-40–44 were
placed inside the 0.3 mm capillary with small amount of the
mother liquor. The datasets were collected at Helmholtz-
Zentrum Berlin for Materials and Energy on beamline
BESSY-MX BL14.2, equipped with MAR225 CCD area detec-
tor and 1-circle goniometer. The monochromated radiation with
λ = 0.88561 Å was used for all experiments. The images were
collected using ϕ-scan technique with scan step Δϕ = 1°. The
indexing, integration and scaling were performed using XDS
program.17 Due to low absorption coefficients, absorption cor-
rections were not performed. The structures were solved by
direct methods and refined in anisotropic approximation for all
non-hydrogen atoms by full matrix least-square on F2 using
SHELX.18 Hydrogen atoms are placed in calculated positions
according to the geometry of parent atoms and refined using
“riding model” with Uiso(H) = 1.5Uiso(C) for CH3 groups and
Uiso(H) = 1.2Uiso(C) for all other atoms. Due to the high
amount of disordered solvent molecules in all investigated struc-
tures, the SQUEEZE routine of PLATON was applied to all data-
sets to modify reflections intensities and to exclude the electron
density of disordered solvent molecules.19 The full data for crys-
tallographic experiments are given in Table S2, ESI.†. CCDC
reference numbers 850713–850717 contain the full information
for crystal structures DUT-40–44.† The topology of the networks
was analysed using program package TOPOS.20
Physisorption experiments
Nitrogen physisorption isotherms were measured at 77 K up to
1 bar using a Quadrasorb apparatus (Quantachrome Co.). Prior to
all adsorption measurements, the samples were activated using
supercritical CO2.
The BET surface area was also geometrically calculated
according to a published procedure.15
Liquid phase adsorption experiments: 1 mmol L−1 solutions
of Isatin, Brilliant green, Nile red, Nile blue, Methylene blue,
Fluorescein, Disperse red 1, Disperse red 13, Food red No. 2 and
Brilliant yellow in DMF (DUT-40 and 42) or DEF (DUT-43 and
44), were prepared. The crystals of investigated compounds were
placed into corresponding dye-containing solution. After three
days, the Dye@MOF crystals were investigated under the
microscope.
For resolvation experiments from the liquid phase, the crystals
of activated compounds were soaked in DMF or DEF for three
days. For resolvation experiments from the vapour, the samples
were stored in a saturated vapour atmosphere of DMF for 7 days.

Notes and references
‡The compositions of DUT-40, DUT-42, DUT-43, and DUT-44 were
derived from TG and elemental analysis data. The composition of
DUT-41 is based on the single crystallographic X-ray analysis and does
not include the solvent guest molecules.
