Synthesis and Hydrogen Sorption Properties of Carborane Based Metal−Organic Framework Materials

The synthesis and hydrogen uptake properties of metal−organic framework (MOFs) materials based on carboranes have been investigated. These are the first MOFs to make use of boro...

An Example of Node-Based Postassembly Elaboration of a Hydrogen-Sorbing, Metal−Organic Framework Material

A robust, noncatenated, and permanently microporous metal-organic framework (MOF) material has been synthesized by combining a new nonplanar ligand, 4,4',4'',4'''-benzene-1,2,4,...

Metal–organic framework materials as catalysts

A critical review of the emerging field of MOF-based catalysis is presented. Discussed are examples of: (a) opportunistic catalysis with metal nodes, (b) designed catalysis with...

De novo synthesis of a metal–organic framework material featuring ultrahigh surface area and gas storage capacities

Control over Catenation in Metal−Organic Frameworks via Rational Design of the Organic Building Block

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a hybrid class of materials comprising inorganic nodes and organic struts, have potential application in many areas due to their high surface ar...

Computational screening of metal‐organic frameworks for xenon/krypton separation

Abstract A variety of metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) with varying linkers, topologies, pore sizes, and metal atoms were screened for xenon/krypton separation using grand canoni...

A Zn-based, pillared paddlewheel MOF containing free carboxylic acids via covalent post-synthesis elaboration

A Zn-based, mixed-ligand (pillared paddlewheel), metal-organic framework (MOF) has been covalently and quantitatively decorated with free carboxylic acids to demonstrate the uti...
