In the version of this article originally published, the powder X-ray diffraction pattern of MOF-808-CuNi after reaction in Supplementary Fig. 26 was erroneously presented as a duplicate of MOF-808-CuNi before reaction. In Supplementary Fig. 32c, the fourth curve (violet) from the top was redundant with the third curve (pink) in the FT-IR spectra of MOF-808-Ni. These mistakes do not influence the conclusions of this paper. The errors have now been corrected in a revised Supplementary Information file accompanying the article.
