[Display omitted] •A defect-engineering strategy to construct the intrinsic defects in metal-organic frameworks was proposed.•The accurate chemical formulas of defective MOF were obtained by simply characterization techniques.•The intrinsic deficiency activates the inert framework to trigger their c...
