Two novel Co-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) were synthesised and characterised using an asymmetrically binding ligand, 4-(4%26apos;-carboxyphenyl)-1,2,4 triazole (Hcpt). The isolated [Co-3(II)(mu(3)-O)(OH)-(cpt)(3)(H2O)(2)](n)center dot xH(2)O center dot yDMF, Co-MOF1, exhibits a rhombohedral crystal structure (space group, P6(3)/mc), with a trinuclear cobalt core that resembles the MIL88 series. This MOF shows paramagnetic behaviour down to 2 K with no saturation of magnetisation up to 7 T. This is presumably due to a geometrically frustrated triangular arrangement of Co spins. The two-dimensional complex, [Co-II(cpt)(N-3)](n), Co-MOF2, crystallises in a monoclinic crystal system (space group, C2/m). The magnetic measurements reveal metamagnetic behaviour for this complex with a critical field in the range of 700-1000 Oe.
