Abstract
Aqueous zinc-based batteries (AZBs) are promising energy storage solutions with remarkable safety, abundant Zn reserve, cost-effectiveness, and relatively high energy density. However, AZBs still face challenges such as anode dendrite formation that reduces cycling stability and limited cathode capacity. Recently, low-dimensional metal-organic frameworks (LD MOFs) and their derivatives have emerged as promising candidates for improving the electrochemical performance of AZBs owing to their unique morphologies, high structure tunability, high surface areas, and high porosity. However, clear guidelines for developing LD MOF-based materials for high-performance AZBs are scarce. In this review, the recent progress of LD MOF-based materials for AZBs is critically examined. The typical synthesis methods and structural design strategies for improving the electrochemical performance of LD MOF-based materials for AZBs are first introduced. The recent noteworthy research achievements are systematically discussed and categorized based on their applications in different AZB components, including cathodes, anodes, separators, and electrolytes. Finally, the limitations are addressed and the future perspectives are outlined for LD MOFs and their derivatives in AZB applications. This review provides clear guidance for designing high-performance LD MOF-based materials for advanced AZBs.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive physisorbents that undergo reversible structural transformations induced by external stimuli (e.g. light, guests, or heat) offer the promise of utility in gas storage and separation. Whereas reports on guest or light-responsive sorbents have increased in recent years, we are unaware of reports on sorbents that exhibit both light and guest-induced structural transformations. Herein, we report that the square lattice, sql, topology coordination network Zn(fba)(bis) ⋅ 2DMF (sql-5,6-Zn-α, 5=trans-4,4'-bis(1-imidazolyl)stilbene=bis, 6=2,2-bis(4-carboxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane=H2fba) underwent single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation (SCSC) upon activation, affording nonporous sql-5,6-Zn-β. Parallel alignment at 3.23 Å of olefinic moieties on adjacent bis ligands in sql-5,6-Zn-α enabled SCSC [2+2] photocycloaddition upon exposure to UV light (365 nm) or sunlight. sql-5,6-Zn-α thereby transformed to mot-5,6-Zn-α, which was subsequently activated to the narrow pore phase mot-5,6-Zn-β. sql-5,6-Zn-β and mot-5,6-Zn-β both exhibited S-shaped adsorption isotherms characteristic of guest-induced structural changes when exposed to CO2 at 195 K (type-F-IV and type F-I, respectively). Cycling experiments conducted upon sql-5,6-Zn-β reduced particle size after cycle 1 and induced transformation into a rare example of a shape memory coordination network, sql-5,6-Zn-γ. Insight into this smorgasbord of SCSC phase changes was gained from in situ PXRD, single crystal XRD and 1H NMR spectroscopy experiments.

Abstract
Network interpenetration plays a crucial role in functionalizing porous framework materials. However, controlling the degree of interpenetration in covalent organic frameworks (COFs) to influence their pore sizes, shapes, and functionalities still remains a significant challenge. Here, we demonstrate a steric tuning strategy to control the degree of COF interpenetration and modulate their physicochemical properties. By imine condensations of 1,1'-bi-2-naphthol-derived tetraaldehydes bearing different alkyl substituents with the monomer tetra(p-aminophenyl)-methane, we synthesized and characterized a family of two-component and three-component chiral COFs with different interpenetrated dia networks. The alkyl groups are periodically appended on the pore walls, and their types/contents that can be synthetically tuned control the interpenetration degree of COFs by minimizing repulsive interactions between the alkyl groups. Specifically, the COF with -OH groups adopts an interpenetrated dia-c5 topology, those with -OMe/-OEt groups take an interpenetrated dia-c4 topology, whereas those with the bulky -OnPr/-OnBu groups exhibit a noninterpenetrated dia-c1 topology. The multivariate COFs with both -OH and -OnBu groups display either a noninterpenetrated or dia-c5 topology, depending on the proportion of -OnBu groups. The extent of interpenetration in COFs significantly affects their porosity, thermal stability, and chemical stability, resulting in varying selective performances in the adsorption and separation of dyes and asymmetric catalysis. This work highlights the potential of using steric hindrance to tune and control interpenetration, porosity, stability, and functionalities of COFs materials, broadening the range of their applications.

Abstract
The pursuit of a straightforward method to recycle organic dyes from effluents and repurpose them into valuable materials represents a highly sought-after yet huge challenge within the realms of chemistry, environment, and materials science. In this context, we employ a host-guest strategy that leverages the recycling of the rhodamine B molecule within the porous structure of a metal-organic framework to facilitate photothermal conversion. This achievement is realized through the electrostatic interaction, which then gives rise to remarkable selectivity and unparalleled uptake capacity for the cationic rhodamine B molecule. Capitalizing on this approach, the application of a columnar device and membrane technology for efficiently trapping rhodamine B molecules becomes feasible. On account of the aggregation effect resulting from the confined pore structure of the host matrix, the fluorescence emission of the encapsulated RhB molecules is significantly reduced, which consequently enhances the photothermal performance of the hybrid material through nonradiative transition. Moreover, the photothermal conversion achieved showcases a myriad of high-performance applications, including bacterial inhibition against Escherichia coli and seawater desalination.

Abstract
Flexible metal-organic materials (FMOMs) with stepped isotherms can offer enhanced working capacity in storage applications such as adsorbed natural gas (ANG) storage. Unfortunately, whereas >1000 FMOMs are known, only a handful exhibit methane uptake of >150 cm3/cm3 at 65 atm and 298 K, conditions relevant to ANG. Here, we report a double-walled 2-fold interpenetrated diamondoid (dia) network, X-dia-6-Ni, [Ni2L4(μ-H2O)]n, comprising a new azo linker ligand, L- (L- = (E)-3-(pyridin-4-yldiazenyl)benzoate) and 8-connected dinuclear molecular building blocks. X-dia-6-Ni exhibited gas (CO2, N2, CH4) and liquid (C8 hydrocarbons)-induced reversible transformations between its activated narrow-pore β phase and γ, a large-pore phase with ca. 33% increase in unit cell volume. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) studies of the as-synthesized phase α, β, and γ revealed that structural transformations were enabled by twisting of the azo moiety and/or deformation of the MBB. Further insight into these transformations was gained from variable temperature powder XRD and in situ variable pressure powder XRD. Low-temperature N2 and CO2 sorption revealed stepped Type F-II isotherms with saturation uptakes of 422 and 401 cm3/g, respectively. X-dia-6-Ni exhibited uptake of 200 cm3/cm3 (65 atm, 298 K) and a high CH4 working capacity of 166 cm3/cm3 (5-65 bar, 298 K, 33 cycles), the third highest value yet reported for an FMOM and the highest value for an FMOM with a Type F-II isotherm.

Abstract
Visible-light-driven conversion of carbon dioxide to valuable compounds and fuels is an important but challenging task due to the inherent stability of the CO2 molecules. Herein, we report a series of cobalt-based polymerized porphyrinic network (PPN) photocatalysts for CO2 reduction with high activity. The introduction of organic groups results in the addition of more conjugated electrons to the networks, thereby altering the molecular orbital levels within the networks. This integration of functional groups effectively adjusts the levels of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) and the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO). The PPN(Co)-NO2 exhibits outstanding performance, with a CO evolution rate of 12 268 μmol/g/h and 85.8% selectivity, surpassing most similar photocatalyst systems. The performance of PPN(Co)-NO2 is also excellent in terms of apparent quantum yield (AQY) for CO production (5.7% at 420 nm). Density functional theory (DFT) calculations, time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL), and electrochemical tests reveal that the introduction of methyl and nitro groups leads to a narrower energy gap, facilitating a faster charge transfer. The coupling reaction in this study enables the formation of stable C-C bonds, enhancing the structural regulation, active site diversity, and stability of the catalysts for photocatalytic CO2 reduction. This work offers a facile strategy to develop reliable catalysts for efficient CO2 conversion.

Abstract
Coordination networks (CNs) that undergo guest-induced structural transformations are of topical interest thanks to their potential utility in separations and storage applications. Herein, we report a double diamondoid (ddi) topology CN, [Ni2(bimpz)2(bdc)2(H2O)] n or X-ddi-2-Ni (H2bdc = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid, bimpz = 3,6-bis(imidazol-1-yl)pyridazine), that undergoes structural transformations induced by C8 isomers, i.e., xylenes (o-xylene, OX; m-xylene, MX; p-xylene, PX) and ethylbenzene (EB). X-ddi-2-Ni was characterized by single-crystal to single-crystal transformations from a nonporous phase, X-ddi-2-Ni-β, to isostructural C8-loaded phases, namely X-ddi-2-Ni-OX, X-ddi-2-Ni-MX, X-ddi-2-Ni-PX and X-ddi-2-Ni-EB. X-ddi-2-Ni accommodates two C8 isomers per Ni unit, resulting in relatively high uptake (ca. 50 wt %), but with low selectivity toward C8 isomers as found using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and gas chromatography (GC). In addition, a narrow range of gate-opening pressures for each isomer was determined from dynamic vapor sorption, consistent with the nonadaptable nature of the C8-loaded phase determined crystallographically, also supported by modeling.

Abstract
Guest-induced (crystal-to-crystal) transformation, i.e., periodic flexibility, is a typical feature of molecule-based crystalline porous materials, but its role for adsorptive separation is controversial. On the other hand, aperiodic flexibility is rarely studied. This work reports a pair of isomeric Cu(I) triazolate frameworks, namely, α-[Cu(fetz)] (MAF-2Fa) and β-[Cu(fetz)] (MAF-2Fb), which show typical periodic and aperiodic flexibility for CO chemical adsorption, respectively. Quantitative mixture breakthrough experiments show that, while MAF-2Fa exhibits high adsorption capacity at high pressures but negligible adsorption below the threshold pressure and with leakage concentrations of 3-8%, MAF-2Fb exhibits relatively low adsorption capacity at high pressures but no leakage (residual CO concentration <1 ppb). Tandem connection of MAF-2Fa and MAF-2Fb can combine their advantages of high CO adsorption capacities at high and low pressures, respectively. MAF-2Fa and MAF-2Fb can both keep the separation performances unchanged at high relative humidities, but only MAF-2Fb shows a unique coadsorption behavior at a relative humidity of 82%, which can be used to improve purification performances.

Abstract
JUK-8 ([Zn(oba)(pip)]n, oba2- = 4,4'-oxybis(benzenedicarboxylate), pip = 4-pyridyl-functionalized benzene-1,3-dicarbohydrazide) is a hydrolytically stable flexible metal-organic framework. Owing to its unusual adsorptive properties, JUK-8 can be considered as a promising sensing material for construction of detectors of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in air. Quasi-equilibrated temperature-programmed desorption and adsorption (QE-TPDA) is a versatile method dedicated to characterization of porous materials. In this work, QE-TPDA was employed to study co-adsorption of water and selected alcohols in JUK-8. For the first time an infrared detector sensitive to organic compounds was used in the QE-TPDA measurements, allowing the study of the influence of water vapor on sorption of VOCs. The QE-TPDA profiles of the studied alcohols, exhibiting two desorption maxima and two adsorption minima, are consistent with the standard sorption isotherms, revealing a two-step adsorption-desorption mechanism. The profiles recorded in the presence of water are noticeably changed in different ways for different alcohols. While at low relative humidity (RH) (ca. 20%) the low temperature adsorption states of ethanol and 1-propanol were only slightly destabilized, for 2-propanol almost complete suppression of adsorption was observed. The results found for moderate RH levels (ca. 50%) indicated that the opening of the JUK-8 structure, responsible for its breathing behavior, was followed by the filling of the just generated pores with a water-alcohol mixture.

Abstract
Multi-interpenetrated metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have exhibited excellent performance in selective adsorption due to the variable post-interspersed flexibility, but the design and control remain challenging. Herein, two anthracene-based ligands, 4,4'-(anthracene-9,10-diyl)dibenzoic acid (H2L1) and 9,10-di(pyridin-4-yl)anthracene (L2), are used to construct a new three-dimensional 6-fold interpenetrated MOF [Zn(L1)(L2)]n (NBU-X1), which exhibits multiple C-H···π interactions that enhance the structural rigidity, thereby entangling with a C2H2/C2H4 separation performance. In this material, the incorporation of abundant anthracene rings within the framework not only partitions and restricts the pore window size to a quasi-double pore but also stabilizes it through host-host interactions. The structural stability upon heating or guest displacement/removal has been investigated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and in situ variable-temperature powder X-ray diffraction, in contrast to the extreme flexibility of most multi-interpenetrated MOFs. The performance of purifying C2H4 from C2H2/C2H4 mixtures has been proved by dynamic breakthrough tests.

Abstract
The stimulus-responsive behavior of coordination networks (CNs), which switch between closed (nonporous) and open (porous) phases, is of interest because of its potential utility in gas storage and separation. Herein, we report two polymorphs of a new square-lattice (sql) topology CN, X-sql-1-Cu, of formula [Cu(Imibz)2]n (HImibz = {[4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenylimino]methyl}benzoic acid), isolated from the as-synthesized CN X-sql-1-Cu-(MeOH)2·2MeOH, which subsequently transformed to a narrow pore solvate, X-sql-1-Cu-A·MeOH, upon mild activation (drying in air or heating at 333 K under nitrogen). X-sql-1-Cu-A·MeOH contains MeOH in cavities, which was removed through exposure to vacuum for 2 h, yielding the nonporous (closed) phase X-sql-1-Cu-A. In contrast, a more dense polymorph, X-sql-1-Cu-B, was obtained by exposing X-sql-1-Cu-(MeOH)2·2MeOH directly to vacuum for 2 h. Gas sorption studies conducted on X-sql-1-Cu-A and X-sql-1-Cu-B revealed different switching behaviors to two open phases (X-sql-1-Cu·CO2 and X-sql-1-Cu·C2H2), with different gate-opening threshold pressures for CO2 at 195 K and C2H2 at 278 K. Coincident CO2 sorption and in situ powder X-ray diffraction studies at 195 K revealed that X-sql-1-Cu-A transformed to X-sql-1-Cu-B after the first sorption cycle and that the CO2-induced switching transformation was thereafter reversible. The results presented herein provide insights into the relationship between two polymorphs of a CN and the effect of polymorphism upon gas sorption properties. To the best of our knowledge, whereas sql networks such as X-sql-1-Cu are widely studied in terms of their structural and sorption properties, this study represents only the second example of an in-depth study of the sorption properties of polymorphic sql networks.

Abstract
Inducing, understanding, and controlling the flexibility in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are of utmost interest due to the potential applications of dynamic materials in gas-related technologies. Herein, we report the synthesis of two isostructural two-dimensional (2D) interweaving zinc(II) MOFs, TMU-27 [Zn(bpipa)(bdc)] and TMU-27-NH2 [Zn(bpipa)(NH2-bdc)], based on N,N'-bis-4-pyridyl-isophthalamide (bpipa) and 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate (bdc) or 2-amino-1,4-benzenedicarboxylate (NH2-bdc), respectively. These frameworks differ only by the substitution at the meta-position of their respective bdc groups: an H atom in TMU-27 vs an NH2 group in TMU-27-NH2. This difference strongly influences their respective responses to external stimuli, since we observed that the structure of TMU-27 changed due to desolvation and adsorption, whereas TMU-27-NH2 remained rigid. Using single-crystal X-ray diffraction and CO2-sorption measurements, we discovered that upon CO2 sorption, TMU-27 undergoes a transition from a closed-pore phase to an open-pore phase. In contrast, we attributed the rigidification in TMU-27-NH2 to intermolecular hydrogen bonding between interweaving layers, namely, between the H atoms from the bdc-amino groups and the O atoms from the bpipa-amide groups within these layers. Additionally, by using scanning electron microscopy to monitor the CO2 adsorption and desorption in TMU-27, we were able to establish a correlation between the crystal size of this MOF and its transformation pressure.

Abstract
Porous coordination networks (PCNs) sustained by inorganic anions that serve as linker ligands can offer high selectivity toward specific gases or vapors in gas mixtures. Such inorganic anions are best exemplified by electron-rich fluorinated anions, e.g., SiF62-, TiF62-, and NbOF52-, although sulfate anions have recently been highlighted as inexpensive and earth-friendly alternatives. Herein, we report the use of a rare copper sulfate dimer molecular building block to generate two square lattice, sql, coordination networks which can be prepared via solvent layering or slurrying, CuSO4(1,4-bib)1.5, 1, (1,4-bib = 1,4-bisimidazole benzene) and CuSO4(1,4-bin)1.5, 2, (1,4-bin = 1,4-bisimidazole naphthalene). Variable-temperature SCXRD and PXRD experiments revealed that both sql networks underwent reversible structural transformations due to linker rotations or internetwork displacements. Gas sorption studies conducted upon the narrow-pore phase of CuSO4(1,4-bin)1.5, 2np, found a high calculated 1:99 selectivity for C2H2 over C2H4 (33.01) and CO2 (15.18), as well as strong breakthrough performance. Across-the-board, C3H4 selectivity vs C3H6, CO2, and C3H8 was also observed. Sulfate-based PCNs, although still understudied, appear increasingly likely to offer utility in gas and vapor separations.

Abstract
Separating ethane (C2H6) from ethylene (C2H4) is an essential and energy-intensive process in the chemical industry. Here, we report two flexible diamondoid coordination networks, X-dia-1-Ni and X-dia-1-Ni0.89Co0.11, that exhibit gate-opening between narrow-pore (NP) and large-pore (LP) phases for C2H6, but not for C2H4. X-dia-1-Ni0.89Co0.11 thereby exhibited a type F-IV isotherm at 273 K with no C2H6 uptake and a high uptake (111 cm3 g-1, 1 atm) for the NP and LP phases, respectively. Conversely, the LP phase exhibited a low uptake of C2H4 (12.2 cm3 g-1). This C2H6/C2H4 uptake ratio of 9.1 for X-dia-1-Ni0.89Co0.11 far surpassed those of previously reported physisorbents, many of which are C2H4-selective. In situ variable-pressure X-ray diffraction and modeling studies provided insight into the abrupt C2H6-induced structural NP to LP transformation. The promise of pure gas isotherms and, more generally, flexible coordination networks for gas separations was validated by dynamic breakthrough studies, which afforded high-purity (99.9%) C2H4 in one step.

Abstract
One-step purification of ethylene (C2H4) from ternary C2 hydrocarbon mixtures is a crucial task and an enduring challenge because of their similar molecular size and physical properties. Owing to their intriguing structural dynamics, flexible MOFs have attracted more attention for gas adsorption and separation. Herein, we report a flexible MOF FJI-W-66 that exhibits rarely seen "breathing" behaviors for C2 hydrocarbons. Upon activation, the channels of guest-free FJI-W-66a significantly contract to a nearly closed-pore state. FJI-W-66a shows the stepwise adsorption isotherms for C2 hydrocarbons, which suggests the occurrence of structural transformation between less open and more open phases. Breakthrough experiments provide evidence that FJI-W-66a can selectively separate C2H4 from C2H2/C2H4/C2H6 mixtures with different ratios under ambient conditions, realizing the one-step acquisition of C2H4 from ternary C2 hydrocarbons.

Abstract
Switching coordination networks (CNs) that reversibly transform between narrow or closed pore (cp) and large pore (lp) phases, though fewer than their rigid counterparts, offer opportunities for sorption-related applications. However, their structural transformations and switching mechanisms remain underexplored at the molecular level. In this study, we conducted a systematic investigation into a 2D switching CN, [Ni(bpy)2(NCS)2]n, sql-1-Ni-NCS (1 = bpy = 4,4'-bipyridine), using coincident gas sorption and in situ powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) under low-temperature conditions. Gas adsorption measurements revealed that C2H4 (169 K) and C2H6 (185 K) exhibited single-step type F-IVs sorption isotherms with sorption uptakes of around 180-185 cm3 g-1, equivalent to four sorbate molecules per formula unit. Furthermore, parallel in situ PXRD experiments provided insight into sorbate-dependent phase switching during the sorption process. Specifically, CO2 sorption induced single-step phase switching (path I) solely between cp and lp phases consistent with the observed single-step type F-IVs sorption isotherm. By contrast, intermediate pore (ip) phases emerged during C2H4 and C2H6 desorption as well as C3H6 adsorption, although they remained undetectable in the sorption isotherms. To our knowledge, such a cp-lp-ip-cp transformation (path II) induced by C2H4/6 and accompanied by single-step type F-IVs sorption isotherms represents a novel type of phase transition mechanism in switching CNs. By virtue of Rietveld refinements and molecular simulations, we elucidated that the phase transformations are governed by cooperative local and global structural changes involving NCS- ligand reorientation, bpy ligand twist and rotation, cavity edge (Ni-bpy-Ni) deformation, and interlayer expansion and sliding.

Abstract
Single-crystal X-ray diffraction is a powerful characterization technique that enables the determination of atomic arrangements in crystalline materials. Growing or retaining large single crystals amenable to it has, however, remained challenging with covalent organic frameworks (COFs), especially suffering from post-synthetic modifications. Here we show the synthesis of a flexible COF with interpenetrated qtz topology by polymerization of tetra(phenyl)bimesityl-based tetraaldehyde and tetraamine building blocks. The material is shown to be flexible through its large, anisotropic positive thermal expansion along the c axis (αc = +491 × 10-6 K-1), as well as through a structural transformation on the removal of solvent molecules from its pores. The as-synthesized and desolvated materials undergo single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation by reduction and oxidation of its imine linkages to amine and amide ones, respectively. These redox-induced linkage conversions endow the resulting COFs with improved stability towards strong acid; loading of phosphoric acid leads to anhydrous proton conductivity up to ca. 6.0 × 10-2 S cm-1.

Abstract
Separation of the C8 aromatic isomers, xylenes (PX, MX, and OX) and ethylbenzene (EB), is important to the petrochemical industry. Whereas physisorptive separation is an energy-efficient alternative to current processes, such as distillation, physisorbents do not generally exhibit strong C8 selectivity. Herein, we report the mixed-linker square lattice (sql) coordination network [Zn2(sba)2(bis)]n·mDMF (sql-4,5-Zn, H2sba or 4 = 4,4'-sulfonyldibenzoic acid, bis or 5 = trans-4,4'-bis(1-imidazolyl)stilbene) and its C8 sorption properties. sql-4,5-Zn was found to exhibit high uptake capacity for liquid C8 aromatics (∼20.2 wt %), and to the best of our knowledge, it is the first sorbent to exhibit selectivity for PX, EB, and MX over OX for binary, ternary, and quaternary mixtures from gas chromatography. Single-crystal structures of narrow-pore, intermediate-pore, and large-pore phases provided insight into the phase transformations, which were enabled by flexibility of the linker ligands and changes in the square grid geometry and interlayer distances. This work adds to the library of two-dimensional coordination networks that exhibit high uptake, thanks to clay-like expansion, and strong selectivity, thanks to shape-selective binding sites, for C8 isomers.

Abstract
Herein, we introduce a new square lattice topology coordination network, sql-(1,3-bib)(ndc)-Ni, with three types of connection and detail its gas and vapour induced phase transformations. Exposure to humidity resulted in an S-shaped isotherm profile, suggesting potential utility of such materials as desiccants.

Abstract
We report that linker ligand substitution involving just one atom induces a shape-memory effect in a flexible coordination network. Specifically, whereas SIFSIX-23-Cu, [Cu(SiF6 )(L)2 ]n , (L=1,4-bis(1-imidazolyl)benzene, SiF6 2- =SIFSIX) has been previously reported to exhibit reversible switching between closed and open phases, the activated phase of SIFSIX-23-CuN , [Cu(SiF6 )(LN )2 ]n (LN =2,5-bis(1-imidazolyl)pyridine), transformed to a kinetically stable porous phase with strong affinity for CO2 . As-synthesized SIFSIX-23-CuN , α, transformed to less open, γ, and closed, β, phases during activation. β did not adsorb N2 (77 K), rather it reverted to α induced by CO2 at 195, 273 and 298 K. CO2 desorption resulted in α', a shape-memory phase which subsequently exhibited type-I isotherms for N2 (77 K) and CO2 as well as strong performance for separation of CO2 /N2 (15/85) at 298 K and 1 bar driven by strong binding (Qst =45-51 kJ/mol) and excellent CO2 /N2 selectivity (up to 700). Interestingly, α' reverted to β after re-solvation/desolvation. Molecular simulations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations provide insight into the properties of SIFSIX-23-CuN .

Abstract
Chiral metal-organic materials, CMOMs, are of interest as they can offer selective binding sites for chiral guests. Such binding sites can enable CMOMs to serve as chiral crystalline sponges (CCSs) to determine molecular structure and/or purify enantiomers. We recently reported on the chiral recognition properties of a homochiral cationic diamondoid, dia, network {[Ni(S-IDEC)(bipy)(H2O)][NO3]}n (S-IDEC = S-indoline-2-carboxylicate, bipy = 4,4'-bipyridine), CMOM-5[NO3]. The modularity of CMOM-5[NO3] means there are five feasible approaches to fine-tune structures and properties via substitution of one or more of the following components: metal cation (Ni2+); bridging ligand (S-IDEC); linker (bipy); extra-framework anion (NO3-); and terminal ligand (H2O). Herein, we report the effect of anion substitution on the CCS properties of CMOM-5[NO3] by preparing and characterizing {[Ni(S-IDEC)(bipy)(H2O)][BF4]}n, CMOM-5[BF4]. The chiral channels in CMOM-5[BF4] enabled it to function as a CCS for determination of the absolute crystal structures of both enantiomers of three chiral compounds: 1-phenyl-1-butanol (1P1B); methyl mandelate (MM); ethyl mandelate (EM). Chiral resolution experiments revealed CMOM-5[BF4] to be highly selective toward the S-isomers of MM and EM with enantiomeric excess, ee, values of 82.6 and 78.4%, respectively. The ee measured for S-EM surpasses the 64.3% exhibited by [DyNaL(H2O)4] 6H2O and far exceeds that of CMOM-5[NO3] (6.0%). Structural studies of the binding sites in CMOM-5[BF4] provide insight into their high enantioselectivity.

Abstract
Gas or vapor-induced phase transformations in flexible coordination networks (CNs) offer the potential to exceed the performance of their rigid counterparts for separation and storage applications. However, whereas ligand modification has been used to alter the properties of such stimulus-responsive materials, they remain understudied compared with their rigid counterparts. Here, we report that a family of Zn2+ CNs with square lattice (sql) topology, differing only through the substituents attached to a linker, exhibit variable flexibility. Structural and CO2 sorption studies on the sql networks, [Zn(5-Ria)(bphy)]n, ia = isophthalic acid, bphy = 1,2-bis(pyridin-4-yl)hydrazine, R = -CH3, -OCH3, -C(CH3)3, -N=N-Ph, and -N=N-Ph(CH3)2, 2-6, respectively, revealed that the substituent moieties influenced both structural and gas sorption properties. Whereas 2-3 exhibited rigidity, 4, 5, and 6 exhibited reversible transformation from small pore to large pore phases. Overall, the insight into the profound effect of pendent moieties of linkers upon phase transformations in this family of layered CNs should be transferable to other CN classes.

Abstract
Considering the significant application of acetylene (C2 H2 ) in the manufacturing and petrochemical industries, the selective capture of impurity carbon dioxide (CO2 ) is a crucial task and an enduring challenge. Here, a flexible metal-organic framework (Zn-DPNA) accompanied by a conformation change of the Me2 NH2 + ions in the framework is reported. The solvate-free framework provides a stepped adsorption isotherm and large hysteresis for C2 H2 , but type-I adsorption for CO2 . Owing to their uptakes difference before gate-opening pressure, Zn-DPNA demonstrated favorable inverse CO2 /C2 H2 separation. According to molecular simulation, the higher adsorption enthalpy of CO2 (43.1 kJ mol-1 ) is due to strong electrostatic interactions with Me2 NH2 + ions, which lock the hydrogen-bond network and narrow pores. Furthermore, the density contours and electrostatic potential verifies the middle of the cage in the large pore favors C2 H2 and repels CO2 , leading to the expansion of the narrow pore and further diffusion of C2 H2 . These results provide a new strategy that optimizes the desired dynamic behavior for one-step purification of C2 H2 .

Abstract
Bifunctional N-donor carboxylate linkers generally afford dia and sql topology coordination networks of general formula ML2 that are based upon the MN2(CO2)2 molecular building block (MBB). Herein, we report on a new N-donor carboxylate linker, β-(3,4-pyridinedicarboximido)propionate (PyImPr), which afforded Cd(PyImPr)2via reaction of PyImPrH with Cd(acetate)2·2H2O. We observed that, depending upon whether Cd(PyImPr)2 was prepared by layering or solvothermal methods, 2D or 3D supramolecular isomers, respectively, of Cd(PyImPr)2 were isolated. Single crystal X-ray diffraction studies revealed that both supramolecular isomers are comprised of the same carboxylate bridged rod building block, RBB. We were interested to determine if the ethylene moiety of PyImPr could enable structural flexibility. Indeed, open-to-closed structural transformations occurred upon solvent removal for both phases, but they were found to be irreversible. A survey of the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) was conducted to analyse the relative frequency of RBB topologies in related ML2 coordination networks in order to provide insight from a crystal engineering perspective.

Abstract
Ultramicroporous materials can be highly effective at trace gas separations when they offer a high density of selective binding sites. Herein, we report that sql-NbOFFIVE-bpe-Cu, a new variant of a previously reported ultramicroporous square lattice, sql, topology material, sql-SIFSIX-bpe-Zn, can exist in two polymorphs. These polymorphs, sql-NbOFFIVE-bpe-Cu-AA (AA) and sql-NbOFFIVE-bpe-Cu-AB (AB), exhibit AAAA and ABAB packing of the sql layers, respectively. Whereas NbOFFIVE-bpe-Cu-AA (AA) is isostructural with sql-SIFSIX-bpe-Zn, each exhibiting intrinsic 1D channels, sql-NbOFFIVE-bpe-Cu-AB (AB) has two types of channels, the intrinsic channels and extrinsic channels between the sql networks. Gas and temperature induced transformations of the two polymorphs of sql-NbOFFIVE-bpe-Cu were investigated by pure gas sorption, single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD), variable temperature powder X-ray diffraction (VT-PXRD), and synchrotron PXRD. We observed that the extrinsic pore structure of AB resulted in properties with potential for selective C3H4/C3H6 separation. Subsequent dynamic gas breakthrough measurements revealed exceptional experimental C3H4/C3H6 selectivity (270) and a new benchmark for productivity (118 mmol g-1) of polymer grade C3H6 (purity >99.99%) from a 1:99 C3H4/C3H6 mixture. Structural analysis, gas sorption studies, and gas adsorption kinetics enabled us to determine that a binding "sweet spot" for C3H4 in the extrinsic pores is behind the benchmark separation performance. Density-functional theory (DFT) calculations and Canonical Monte Carlo (CMC) simulations provided further insight into the binding sites of C3H4 and C3H6 molecules within these two hybrid ultramicroporous materials, HUMs. These results highlight, to our knowledge for the first time, how pore engineering through the study of packing polymorphism in layered materials can dramatically change the separation performance of a physisorbent.

Control over Phase Transformations in a Family of Flexible Double Diamondoid Coordination Networks through Linker Ligand Substitution.

[PMID: 37181677 PMCID: PMC10173379 DOI: 10.1021/acs.chemmater.3c00334] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2023] [Revised: 04/13/2023] [Indexed: 05/16/2023]
Abstract
In this work, we present the first metal-organic framework (MOF) platform with a self-penetrated double diamondoid (ddi) topology that exhibits switching between closed (nonporous) and open (porous) phases induced by exposure to gases. A crystal engineering strategy, linker ligand substitution, was used to control gas sorption properties for CO2 and C3 gases. Specifically, bimbz (1,4-bis(imidazol-1-yl)benzene) in the coordination network X-ddi-1-Ni ([Ni2(bimbz)2(bdc)2(H2O)]n, H2bdc = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid) was replaced by bimpz (3,6-bis(imidazol-1-yl)pyridazine) in X-ddi-2-Ni ([Ni2(bimpz)2(bdc)2(H2O)]n). In addition, the 1:1 mixed crystal X-ddi-1,2-Ni ([Ni2(bimbz)(bimpz)(bdc)2(H2O)]n) was prepared and studied. All three variants form isostructural closed (β) phases upon activation which each exhibited different reversible properties upon exposure to CO2 at 195 K and C3 gases at 273 K. For CO2, X-ddi-1-Ni revealed incomplete gate-opening, X-ddi-2-Ni exhibited a stepped isotherm with saturation uptake of 3.92 mol·mol-1, and X-ddi-1,2-Ni achieved up to 62% more gas uptake and a distinct isotherm shape vs the parent materials. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) and in situ powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) experiments provided insight into the mechanisms of phase transformation and revealed that the β phases are nonporous with unit cell volumes 39.9, 40.8, and 41.0% lower than the corresponding as-synthesized α phases, X-ddi-1-Ni-α, X-ddi-2-Ni-α, and X-ddi-1,2-Ni-α, respectively. The results presented herein represent the first report of reversible switching between closed and open phases in ddi topology coordination networks and further highlight how ligand substitution can profoundly impact the gas sorption properties of switching sorbents.

Abstract
Adsorbed natural gas (ANG) systems involve using porous materials to increase the working capacity and/or reduce the storage pressure compared to compressed natural gas (CNG). Flexible metal-organic materials (FMOMs) are particularly interesting in this context since their stepped isotherms can afford increased working capacity if the adsorption/desorption steps occur within the proper pressure range. We report herein that metal doping in a family of isostructural FMOMs, ML2 (M=Co, Ni or Nix Co1-x , L=4-(4-pyridyl)-biphenyl-4-carboxylic acid), enables control over the gate opening between non-porous (closed) and porous (open) phases at pressures relevant to methane storage. Specifically, methane-induced phase transformations can be fine-tuned by using different Ni/Co ratios to enhance methane working capacity. The optimal working capacity from 5 to 35 bar at 298 K (153 cm3 cm-3 ) was found for Ni0.89 Co0.11 L2 (X-dia-1-Ni0.89 Co0.11 ), which is greater than that of benchmark rigid MOFs.

Abstract
In this work, we report the synthesis, structural characterisation and sorption properties of an 8-fold interpenetrated diamondoid (dia) metal-organic framework (MOF) that is sustained by a new extended linker ligand, [Cd(Imibz)2], X-dia-2-Cd, HImibz or 2 = 4-((4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenylimino)methyl)benzoic acid. X-dia-2-Cd was found to exhibit reversible single-crystal-to-single-crystal (SC-SC) transformations between four distinct phases: an as-synthesised (from N,N-dimethylformamide) wide-pore phase, X-dia-2-Cd-α; a narrow-pore phase, X-dia-2-Cd-β, formed upon exposure to water; a narrow-pore phase obtained by activation, X-dia-2-Cd-γ; a medium-pore CO2-loaded phase X-dia-2-Cd-δ. While the space group remained constant in the four phases, the cell volumes and calculated void space ranged from 4988.7 Å3 and 47% (X-dia-2-Cd-α), respectively, to 3200.8 Å3 and 9.1% (X-dia-2-Cd-γ), respectively. X-dia-2-Cd-γ also exhibited a water vapour-induced structural transformation to the water-loaded X-dia-2-Cd-β phase, resulting in an S-shaped sorption isotherm. The inflection point occurred at 18% RH with negligible hysteresis on the desorption profile. Water vapour temperature-humidity swing cycling (60% RH, 300 K to 0% RH, 333 K) indicated hydrolytic stability of X-dia-2-Cd and working capacity was retained after 128 cycles of sorbent regeneration. CO2 (at 195 K) was also observed to induce a structural transformation in X-dia-2-Cd-γ and in situ PXRD studies at 1 bar of CO2, 195 K revealed the formation of X-dia-2-Cd-δ, which exhibited 31% larger unit cell volume than X-dia-2-Cd-γ.

Abstract
Shape-memory polymers and alloys are adaptable materials capable of reversing from a deformed, metastable phase to an energetically favored original phase in response to external stimuli. In the context of metal-organic frameworks, the term shape-memory is defined as the property of a switchable framework to stabilize the reopened pore phase after the first switching transition. Herein we describe a novel flexible terpyridine MOF which, upon desolvation, transforms into a nonporous structure that reopens into a shape-memory phase when exposed to CO2 at 195 K. Based on comprehensive in situ experimental studies (SC-XRD and PXRD) and DFT energetic considerations combined with literature reports, we recommend dividing shape-memory MOFs into two categories, viz responsive and nonresponsive, depending on the transformability of the gas-free reopened pore phase into the collapsed phase. Furthermore, considering the methodological gap in discovering and understanding shape-memory porous materials, we emphasize the importance of multicycle physisorption experiments for dynamic open framework materials, including metal-organic and covalent organic frameworks.

Abstract
Flexible metal-organic materials that exhibit stimulus-responsive switching between closed (non-porous) and open (porous) structures induced by gas molecules are of potential utility in gas storage and separation. Such behaviour is currently limited to a few dozen physisorbents that typically switch through a breathing mechanism requiring structural contortions. Here we show a clathrate (non-porous) coordination network that undergoes gas-induced switching between multiple non-porous phases through transient porosity, which involves the diffusion of guests between discrete voids through intra-network distortions. This material is synthesized as a clathrate phase with solvent-filled cavities; evacuation affords a single-crystal to single-crystal transformation to a phase with smaller cavities. At 298 K, carbon dioxide, acetylene, ethylene and ethane induce reversible switching between guest-free and gas-loaded clathrate phases. For carbon dioxide and acetylene at cryogenic temperatures, phases showing progressively higher loadings were observed and characterized using in situ X-ray diffraction, and the mechanism of diffusion was computationally elucidated.

Abstract
Using petrol to supply energy for a car or burning coal to heat a building generates plenty of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, including carbon dioxide (CO2 ), water vapor (H2 O), methane (CH4 ), nitrous oxide (N2 O), ozone (O3 ), fluorinated gases. These up-and-coming metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are structurally endowed with rigid inorganic nodes and versatile organic linkers, which have been extensively used in the GHG-related applications to improve the lives and protect the environment. Porous MOF materials and their derivatives have been demonstrated to be competitive and promising candidates for GHG separation, storage and conversions as they shows facile preparation, large porosity, adjustable nanostructure, abundant topology, and tunable physicochemical property. Enormous progress has been made in GHG storage and separation intrinsically stemmed from the different interaction between guest molecule and host framework from MOF itself in the recent five years. Meanwhile, the use of porous MOF materials to transform GHG and the influence of external conditions on the adsorption performance of MOFs for GHG are also enclosed. In this review, it is also highlighted that the existing challenges and future directions are discussed and envisioned in the rational design, facile synthesis and comprehensive utilization of MOFs and their derivatives for practical applications.

Abstract
Pore environment modulation with high-density polarizing groups in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can effectively accomplish selective and multicyclic carbon dioxide (CO2) adsorption, whereas the incorporation of task-specific organic sites inside these porous vessels promise to evade self-quenching, solubility, and recyclability issues in hydrogen-bond donating (HBD) catalysis. However, concurrent amalgamation of both these attributes over a single platform is rare but extremely demanding in view of sustainable applications. We designed a robust diamondoid framework CSMCRI-17 (CSMCRI = Central Salt and Marine Chemicals Research Institute) from the mixed-ligand assembly of azo group-containing dicarboxylate ligand, urea-functionalized pyridyl linker, and Zn(II) nodes with specific divergent coordination. Seven-fold interpenetration to the microporous structure largely augments N-rich functionality that facilitates high CO2 uptake in the activated form (17a) with good CO2 selectivity over N2 and CH4 that outperform many reported materials. The framework displays very strong CO2 affinity and no reduction in adsorption capacity over multiple uptake-release cycles. Benefitting from the pore-wall decoration with urea functionality from the pillaring strut, 17a further demonstrates hydrogen-bond-mediated Friedel-Crafts alkylation of indole with β-nitrostyrene under mild conditions, with multicyclic usability and excellent reactivity toward wide ranges of substituted nucleophiles and electrophiles. Interestingly, interpenetration-generated optimum-sized pores induce poor conversion to sterically encumbered substrate via molecular dimension-mediated size selectivity that is alternatively ascribed from additional control experiments and support the occurrence of HBD reaction within the MOF cavity. The catalytic path is detailed in light of the change of emission intensity of the framework by the electrophile as well as the judicious choice of the substrate, which authenticates the prime role of urea moiety-governed two-point hydrogen bonding.

Abstract
Switching coordination networks (CNs) featuring stepped sorption isotherms that are accompanied by phase changes offer promise for gas storage and separation applications. However, their responsiveness to different adsorbates remains largely understudied. Herein, we report the variable switching behaviour of a previously known square lattice (sql) topology CN, [Ni(4,4'-bipyridine)2(NCS)2] (sql-1-Ni-NCS), with respect to nine gaseous adsorbates.

Soft porous crystals, which are responsive to external stimuli such as temperature, pressure, or gas adsorption, are being extensively investigated for various technological applications. However, while substantial research has been devoted to stimuli-responsive metal-organic frameworks, structural flexibility in 3D covalent organic frameworks (COFs) remains ill-understood, and is almost exclusively found in COFs exhibiting the diamondoid (dia) topology. Herein, we systemically investigate how the structural decoration of these 3D dia COFs-their specific building blocks and degree of interpenetration-as well as external triggers such as temperature and guest adsorption may promote or suppress their phase transformations, as captured by a collection of 2D free energy landscapes. Together, these provide a comprehensive understanding of the necessary conditions to design flexible diamondoid COFs. This study reveals how their flexibility originates from the balance between steric hindrance and dispersive interactions of the structural decoration, thereby providing insight into how new flexible 3D COFs can be designed.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks have been investigated in Fenton-like catalysis for tetracycline hydrochloride degradation, a widely used antibiotic which threatens the growth and health of creatures. However, powder phase and absence of large pores limit the materials' degradation performance and application. In this work, a hierarchical macro-meso-microporous composite melamine sponge@MIL-101-Fe-NH2 was firstly designed and constructed. While the micropores provided plenty of active sites to generate reactive oxygen species, the macropores and mesopores accelerated mass transfer. Besides, MIL-101-Fe-NH2 particles dispersed on melamine sponge individually, exposing more catalytic sites and avoiding inactivation caused by aggregation compared to powder catalysts. Its catalysis performance for tetracycline hydrochloride degradation was evaluated through changing various influence factors like H2O2 concentration, catalyst amount, pH and coexisting ions. Different from the preference of homogenous Fenton catalysts for pH 2-4, the composite displayed the most effective degradation at a subacid environment closer to nature with 77.24% in 30 min. Owing to the synergistic effect of hierarchical porous structure and monodispersed nanoparticles, the composite exhibited faster reaction rate and longer persistence compared to powder MIL-101-Fe-NH2. Easy recycling and less ion leaching made it advantages for practical application. •OH, •O2- and 1O2 active species contributed together to the degradation and two main possible degradation pathways were put forward based on 35 detected intermediates.

Abstract
We present an autonomous, chemical logic gate based on a switchable metal-organic framework (MOF) composite, containing carbon nanoparticles and a Pt catalyst. The switchable MOF composite performs as AND logic gate. Hydrogen and oxygen gas streams serve as binary inputs. Catalytically formed water induces a structural transition (crystal volume expansion) of the MOF, and as a consequence, a detectable drop in conductance of the composite as a 'true' output only if both gases come in contact with the composite.

Abstract
The relatively stable MOFs Alfum, MIL-160, DUT-4, DUT-5, MIL-53-TDC, MIL-53, UiO-66, UiO-66-NH2, UiO-66(F)4, UiO-67, DUT-67, NH2-MIL-125, MIL-125, MIL-101(Cr), ZIF-8, ZIF-11 and ZIF-7 were studied for their C6 sorption properties. An understanding of the uptake of the larger C6 molecules cannot simply be achieved with surface area and pore volume (from N2 sorption) but involves the complex micropore structure of the MOF. The maximum adsorption capacity at p p0-1 = 0.9 was shown by DUT-4 for benzene, MIL-101(Cr) for cyclohexane and DUT-5 for n-hexane. In the low-pressure range from p p0-1 = 0.1 down to 0.05 the highest benzene uptake is given by DUT-5, DUT-67/UiO-67 and MIL-101(Cr), for cyclohexane and n-hexane by DUT-5, UiO-67 and MIL-101(Cr). The highest uptake capacity at p p0-1 = 0.02 was seen with MIL-53 for benzene, MIL-125 for cyclohexane and DUT-5 for n-hexane. DUT-5 and MIL-101(Cr) are the MOFs with the widest pore window openings/cross sections but the low-pressure uptake seems to be controlled by a complex combination of ligand and pore-size effect. IAST selectivities between the three binary mixtures show a finely tuned and difficult to predict interplay of pore window size with (critical) adsorptive size and possibly a role of electrostatics through functional groups such as NH2.

Abstract
Thermal stability and thermodynamic properties of aluminum(III)-1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate (Al-BTC) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), including MIL-96, MIL-100, and MIL-110, have been investigated through a suite of calorimetric and X-ray techniques. In situ high-temperature X-ray diffraction (HT-XRD) and thermogravimetric analysis coupled with differential scanning calorimetry (TGA-DSC) revealed that these MOFs undergo thermal amorphization prior to ligand combustion. Thermal stabilities of Al-BTC MOFs follow the increasing order MIL-110 < MIL-96 < MIL-100, based on estimated amorphization temperatures. Their thermodynamic stabilities were directly measured by high-temperature drop combustion calorimetry. Normalized (per mole of Al) enthalpies of formation (ΔH*f) of MIL-96, MIL-100, and MIL-110 from Al2O3, H3BTC, and H2O (only Al2O3 and H3BTC for MIL-100) were determined to be -56.9 ± 13.7, -36.2 ± 17.9, and 62.8 ± 11.6 kJ/mol·Al, respectively. Our results demonstrate that MIL-96 and MIL-100 are thermodynamically favorable, while MIL-110 is metastable, in agreement with thermal and hydrothermal stability trends. The enthalpic preferences of MIL-96 and MIL-100 may be attributed to their shared trinuclear μ3-oxo-bridged (Al3(μ3-O)) secondary building units (SBUs) promoting stabilization of Al polyhedra by the ligands within these frameworks, in comparison to the sterically strained Al8 octamer cluster cores formed in MIL-110. Furthermore, similar ΔH*f of MIL-96 and MIL-100 explain their concurrent formation as physical mixtures often encountered during synthesis, implying the importance of kinetic factors that may facilitate the formation of Al-BTC framework isomers. More importantly, the normalized formation enthalpies of Al-BTC MOF isomers follow a negative correlation with the ratio of charged coordinated substituents to linkers (normalized per mole of Al within the MOF formula unit), with enthalpic preference given to systems with smaller (O2- + OH-)/ligand ratios. This trend has been successfully extended to the previously measured ΔH*f of several Zn4O-based frameworks (e.g., MOF-5, MOF-5(DEF), MOF-177, UMCM-1), all of which have been found to be metastable with respect to their dense phases (ZnO, H2O, and ligands). The result suggests that carboxylate MOFs with higher metal coordination environments attain more enthalpic stabilization from the coordinated ligands. Thus, the formation of some lanthanide/actinide, transition metal, and main group carboxylate frameworks may be energetically more favored, which, however, requires further studies.

Abstract
That physisorbents can reduce the energy footprint of water vapor capture and release has attracted interest because of potential applications such as moisture harvesting, dehumidification, and heat pumps. In this context, sorbents exhibiting an S-shaped single-step water sorption isotherm are desirable, most of which are structurally rigid sorbents that undergo pore-filling at low relative humidity (RH), ideally below 30% RH. Here, we report that a new flexible one-dimensional (1D) coordination network, [Cu(HQS)(TMBP)] (H2HQS = 8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfonic acid and TMBP = 4,4'-trimethylenedipyridine), exhibits at least five phases: two as-synthesized open phases, α ⊃ H2O and β ⊃ MeOH; an activated closed phase (γ); CO2 (δ ⊃ CO2) and C2H2 (ϵ ⊃ C2H2) loaded phases. The γ phase underwent a reversible structural transformation to α ⊃ H2O with a stepped sorption profile (Type F-IV) when exposed to water vapor at <30% RH at 300 K. The hydrolytic stability of [Cu(HQS)(TMBP)] was confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) after immersion in boiling water for 6 months. Temperature-humidity swing cycling measurements demonstrated that working capacity is retained for >100 cycles and only mild heating (<323 K) is required for regeneration. Unexpectedly, the kinetics of loading and unloading of [Cu(HQS)(TMBP)] compares favorably with well-studied rigid water sorbents such as Al-fumarate, MOF-303, and CAU-10-H. Furthermore, a polymer composite of [Cu(HQS)(TMBP)] was prepared and its water sorption retained its stepped profile and uptake capacity over multiple cycles.

Abstract
Methane, as the main component of natural gas, shale gas, and marsh gas, is regarded as an ideal clean energy to replace traditional fossil fuels and reduce carbon emissions. Porous materials with superior methane storage capacities are the key to the wide application of adsorbed natural gas technology in vehicle transportation. In this work, we applied a ligand tailoring strategy to a metal-organic framework (NOTT-101) to fine-tune its pore geometry, which was well characterized by gas and dye sorption measurements. High-pressure methane sorption isotherms revealed that the methane storage performance of the modified NOTT-101 can be effectively improved by decreasing the unusable uptake at 5 bar and increasing the total uptake under high pressures, achieving a substantially high volumetric methane storage working capacity of 190 cm3 (STP) cm-3 at 298 K and 5-80 bar.

Abstract
Metal-organic framework (MOF) glasses are a fascinating new class of materials, yet their prosperity has been impeded by the scarcity of known examples and limited vitrification methods. In the work described in this report, we applied synergistic stimuli of vapor hydration and thermal dehydration to introduce structural disorders in interpenetrated dia-net MOF, which facilitate the formation of stable super-cooled liquid and quenched glass. The material after stimulus has a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 560 K, far below the decomposition temperature of 695 K. When heated, the perturbed MOF enters a super-cooled liquid phase that is stable for a long period of time (>104 s), across a broad temperature range (26 K), and has a large fragility index of 83. Quenching the super-cooled liquid gives rise to porous MOF glass with maintained framework connectivity, confirmed by EXAFS and PDF analysis. This method provides a fundamentally new route to obtain glassy materials from MOFs that cannot be melted without causing decomposition.

Abstract
Organic framework materials, particularly metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), graphene-organic frameworks (GOFs), and covalent organic frameworks (COFs), have led to the revolution across fields including catalysts, sensors, gas capture, and biology mainly owing to their ultra-high surface area-to-volume ratio, on-demand tunable crystal structures, and unique surface properties. While the wet chemistry routes have been the predominant synthesis approach, the crystal phase, morphological parameters, and physicochemical properties of organic framework materials are largely affected by various synthesis parameters and precursors. In this work, we specifically review the influences of synthesis parameters towards crystal structures and chemical compositions of organic framework materials, including selected ligand types and lengths, reaction temperature/solvent/reactant compositions, as well as post-synthesis modification approaches. More importantly, the subsequent impacts on the general electronic, mechanical, surface chemical, and thermal properties as well as the consequent variation in performances towards catalytic, desalination, gas sensing, and gas storage applications are critically discussed. Finally, the current challenges and prospects of organic framework materials are provided.

Abstract
Separation of xenon/krypton gas mixtures is one of the valuable but challenging processes in the gas industries due to their close molecular size and similar physical properties. Here, we report a novel ultramicroporous hydrogen-bonded organic framework (termed as HOF-40) constructed from a cyano-based organic building unit of 1,2,4,5-tetrakis(4-cyanophenyl)benzene (TCPB), exhibiting superior separation performance for Xe/Kr mixtures, as clearly demonstrated by dynamic breakthrough curves. GCMC simulation results indicate that the pore confinement effect and abundant accessible binding sites play a synergistic role in this challenging gas separation. Furthermore, this cyano-based HOF displays excellent chemical stability from 12 M HCl to 20 M NaOH aqueous solutions.

Abstract
We report that the previously reported square lattice coordination network [Ni(4,4'-bipyridine)2(NCS)2]n, sql-1-Ni-NCS, undergoes acetylene induced switching between closed (nonporous) and open (porous) phases. The resulting stepped sorption isotherms exhibit temperature controlled steps, consistent high uptake and benchmark working capacity (185 cm-3 g-1 or 189 cm-3, 1-3.2 bar, 288 K) for acetylene storage.
