*The OMS density of MOFs was calculated based on the crystal information files.

Data for FJI-H8 at 308 K.

The value of C2H2 uptake by OMS is larger than the sum value maybe because of the interaction between open Mg(II) sites and acetylene molecules are so weak that open Mg(II) sites cannot be fully loaded.
