Motivated by recently searching for topological states in organic materials as well as successful experimental synthesis of a graphitelike metal-organic framework Ni-3(C18H12N6)(2) [Sheberla et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 136, 8859 (2014)], we systematically investigated the electronic and topological properties of the Ni-3(C18H12N6)(2) monolayer using an ab initio method combined with a tight-binding model. Our calculations demonstrate that the material can be in a quantum spin Hall or Z(2) metallic state in different electron-doped concentrations, which are experimentally accessible with currently electrostatic gating technologies. The tight-binding model also shows that the real next-nearest-neighbor interaction is essential to drive the Z(2) metallic phase in Ni-3(C18H12N6)(2)-type lattices.
