Abstract
Efficient capture and storage of radioactive I2 is a prerequisite for developing nuclear power but remains a challenge. Here, two flexible Ag-MOFs (FJI-H39 and 40) with similar active sites but different pore sizes and flexibility are prepared; both of them can capture I2 with excellent removal efficiencies and high adsorption capacities. Due to the more flexible pores, FJI-H39 not only possesses the record-high I2 storage density among all the reported MOFs but also displays a very fast adsorption kinetic (124 times faster than FJI-H40), while their desorption kinetics are comparable. Mechanistic studies show that FJI-H39 can undergo induced-fit transformations continuously (first contraction then expansion), making the adsorbed iodine species enrich near the Ag(I) nodes quickly and orderly, from discrete I- anion to the dense packing of various iodine species, achieving the very fast adsorption kinetic and the record-high storage density simultaneously. However, no significant structural transformations caused by the adsorbed iodine are observed in FJI-H40. In addition, FJI-H39 has excellent stability/recyclability/obtainability, making it a practical adsorbent for radioactive I2. This work provides a useful method for synthesizing practical radioactive I2 adsorbents.

Abstract
Ti-based MOFs exhibit ultra-high stability in radioactive waste gases containing nitrogen oxides (NOX) and are effective in capturing radioactive iodine. In this study, NH2-MIL-125 was synthesized via a one-pot solvothermal method and its adsorption performance for iodine was investigated using batch adsorption experiments, the stability of materials was tested by simulating post-processing conditions. The results indicated that NH2-MIL-125 had a maximum iodine adsorption capacity of 1.61 g/g at 75 ℃ and reached adsorption equilibrium within 60 min, and the adsorption capacity of methyl iodine reached 776.9 mg/g. The material also exhibited excellent stability and iodine adsorption performance in the presence of NOX. After soaking in NO2 for 24 h, its structure remained stable and the adsorption capacity for iodine remained at 231.5 mg/g. The excellent co-adsorption performance of NH2-MIL-125 on iodine and NOX was attributed to the synergistic effects of Ti-OH groups and amino functional groups. These findings provide a reference for the capture of radioactive iodine and also demonstrate the potential of NH2-MIL-125 for iodine capture during spent fuel reprocessing.

Abstract
Two titanium-based MOFs MIL-125 and MIL-125_NH2 are synthesized and characterized using high-temperature powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), N2 sorption, Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). Stable up to 300 °C, both compounds exhibited similar specific surface areas (SSA) values (1207 and 1099 m2 g-1 for MIL-125 and MIL-125_NH2, respectively). EPR signals of Ti3+ are observed in both, whith MIL-125_NH2 also showing ─NH2 ●+ signatures. Both MOFs efficiently adsorbed iodine in continuous gas flow over five days, with MIL-125 trapping 1.9 g.g-1 and MIL-125_NH2 trapping 1.6 g.g-1. MIL-125_NH2 exhibited faster adsorption kinetics due to its smaller band gap (2.5 against 3.6 eV). In situ Raman spectroscopy conducted during iodine adsorption revealed signal evolution from "free" I2 to "perturbed" I2, and I3 -. TGA and in situ Raman desorption experiments showed that ─NH2 groups improved the stabilization of I3 - due to an electrostatic interaction with NH2 ●+BDC radicals. The Albery model indicated longer lifetimes for iodine desorption in I2@MIL-125_NH2, attributed to a rate-limiting step due to stronger interaction between the anionic iodine species and the ─NH2 ●+ radicals. This study underscores how MOFs with efficient charge separation and hole-stabilizer functional groups enhance iodine stability at higher temperatures.

Abstract
Adsorption is considered to be one of the most effective methods to remove radioiodine from the solution. However, developing highly efficient adsorbents and the rapid recovery of the used adsorbents is still a challenge. Here, a series of Cu/Fe3O4 bimetallic mutual-doping magnetic aerogels (Cu/Fe3O4-BMMA) were synthesized. Based on the in-situ bimetallic co-gelation process, the high dispersion of Cu in the aerogel was realized, providing conditions for the efficient elimination of I2. The Fe3+ in the initial gel was reduced to magnetic Fe3O4 during the preparation process, allowing for the quick recovery of the adsorbent through the application of a magnetic field. The adsorption experiments showed that Cu/Fe3O4-BMMA has good I2 adsorption capacity (631.3 mg/g) and fast capture kinetics (equilibrium time < 30 min). In addition, Cu/Fe3O4-BMMA was able to effectively remove trace I2 in the solution from ppm level (1.0 ppm) down to ppb level (≤30 ppb). The adsorbed I2 was converted into stable CuI, avoiding secondary pollution due to desorption. Overall, this study provides a potentially efficient iodine capture material for long-term decay storage of radioactive iodine.

Abstract
Porous covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have been widely used for the efficient removal of iodine from solution due to their abundance of electron-rich sites. In this study, two kinds of ketoenamine-based COFs, TpBD-(OMe)2 and TpBD-Me2, are successfully synthesized via Schiff base reaction under solvothermal conditions using 1, 3, 5-triformylphoroglucinol as aldehyde monomer, o-tolidine and o-dianisidine as amino monomers. The ability of TpBD-(OMe)2 and TpBD-Me2 to adsorb iodine in cyclohexane or aqueous solutions has been quantitatively analyzed and interpreted in terms of adsorption sites. TpBD-Me2 possesses two adsorption sites, -NH- and -C=O, and exhibits an adsorption capacity of 681.67 mg/g in cyclohexane, with an initial adsorption rate of 0.6 g/mol/min with respect to COF unit cell. The adsorption capacity of TpBD-(OMe)2 can be as high as 728.77 mg/g, and the initial adsorption rate of TpBD-(OMe)2 can reach 1.2 g/mol/min in the presence of oxygen atoms between the methyl group and the benzene ring. Compared with TpBD-Me2, the higher adsorption capacity and adsorption rate of TpBD-(OMe)2 towards iodine are not only reflected in organic solvents, but also in aqueous solutions. It is proven through X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy that iodine exists in the form of I2, I3-, and I5- within TpBD-(OMe)2 and TpBD-Me2 after adsorption. This work not only expands the application of COFs in the field of iodine adsorption, but also provides research ideas and important an experimental basis for the optimization of iodine adsorption sites.

Abstract
There is a strong and urgent need for efficient materials that can capture radioactive iodine atoms from nuclear waste. This work presents a novel strategy to develop porous materials for iodine capture by employing halogen bonding, mechanochemistry and crystal engineering. 3D halogen-bonded organic frameworks (XOFs) with guest-accessible permanent pores are exciting targets in crystal engineering for developing functional materials, and this work reports the first example of such a structure. The new-found XOF, namely TIEPE-DABCO, exhibits enhanced emission in the solid state and turn-off emission sensing of acid vapors and explosives like picric acid in nanomolar quantity. TIEPE-DABCO captures iodine from the gas phase (3.23 g g-1 at 75 °C and 1.40 g g-1 at rt), organic solvents (2.1 g g-1 ), and aqueous solutions (1.8 g g-1 in the pH range of 3-8); the latter with fast kinetics. The captured iodine can be retained for more than 7 days without any leaching, but readily released using methanol, when required. TIEPE-DABCO can be recycled for iodine capture several times without any loss of storage capacity. The results presented in this work demonstrate the potential of mechanochemical cocrystal engineering with halogen bonding as an approach to develop porous materials for iodine capture and sensing.

Abstract
Its high coordination number and tendency to cluster make Th4+ suitable for constructing metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with novel topologies. In this work, two novel thorium-based heterometallic MOF isomers (IHEP-17 and IHEP-18) were assembled from a Th6 cluster, a multifunctional organic ligand [4-(1H-pyrazol-4-yl)benzoic acid (HPyba)], and Cu2+/Ni2+ cations via the one-pot solvothermal synthesis strategy. The framework features a 6,12-connected new topology net and contains two kinds of supramolecular cage structures, Th36M4 and Th24M2, suitable for guest exchange. Both MOF materials can efficiently adsorb I2. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction indicate that the adsorbed iodine is uniformly distributed within the Th36M4 cage but not the Th24M2 cage in the form of I3-.

Abstract
The integration of radionuclide iodine molecules in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for organic synthesis is attracting considerable research attention due to their specific catalytic performance. However, understanding the comprehensive catalytic behaviors of different types of molecular iodine encapsulated in MOFs for a sequential organic transformation is a great challenge. To address this issue, we have designed two triethylenediamine-functionalized MOFs assembled from 1,3,5-tricarboxyphenyl-2-(triethylenediaminemethyl)benzene-linker and {Cd(COO)3N} or {Cu4(u3-OH)2(COO)6N} clusters. Both MOFs show good stability and adsorption of I2 in the solution and vapor phases. Catalysts obtained after treatment with ethyl acetate present efficient catalytic activity in hydrolysis/alkylation tandem reactions in water. The mechanistic investigations disclose a sequential catalytic process comprising a "hidden" Brønsted acid catalytic hydrolysis of acetals to aldehydes followed by the I2-bonding Lewis acid catalytic alkylation of aldehydes to 3,3'-disubstituted 1H-indoles.

Abstract
Actinide-bearing metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) encompass intriguing structures and properties, but the radioactivity of actinide cripples their applications. Herein, we have constructed a new thorium-based MOF (Th-BDAT) as a bifunctional platform for the adsorption and detection of radioiodine, a more radioactive fission product that can readily spread through the atmosphere in its molecular form or via solution as anionic species. The iodine capture within the framework of Th-BDAT from both the vapor phase and the cyclohexane solution has been verified, showing that Th-BDAT features maximum I2 adsorption capacities (Qmax) of 959 and 1046 mg/g, respectively. Notably, the Qmax of Th-BDAT toward I2 from cyclohexane solution ranks among the highest value for Th-MOFs reported to date. Furthermore, incorporating highly extended and π-electron-rich BDAT4- ligands renders Th-BDAT as a luminescent chemosensor whose emission can be selectively quenched by iodate with a detection limit of 1.367 μM. Our findings thus foreshadow promising directions that might unlock the full potential of actinide-based MOFs from the point of view of practical application.

[PMID: 37033815 PMCID: PMC10077452 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.2c08274] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2022] [Accepted: 03/08/2023] [Indexed: 06/19/2023]
Abstract
A simple solvothermal method was used to synthesize a metal-organic framework (MOF) with an Al metal entity, viz., CAU-1 NH2. The synthesized MOF was characterized using different techniques like X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), field emission SEM (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy, small-angle X-ray scattering, positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The radiation stability was evaluated by irradiating the material up to a cumulative dose of 2 MGy using 60Co for the first time. The studies showed a remarkable gamma irradiation stability of the material up to 1 MGy. The porosity and surface area of the synthesized MOF were determined by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller, which showed a high specific surface area of 550 m2/g. The pH dependence study of Th uptake from an aqueous solution was performed from pH 2-8, followed by adsorption isotherm and adsorption kinetics studies. These results revealed that the Langmuir and pseudo-second-order kinetic models can be well adapted for understanding the Th uptake and kinetics, respectively. The synthesized MOF exhibited an ∼404 mg/g thorium adsorption capacity. Selectivity studies of adsorption of Th w.r.t. to U and different metal ions such as Cu, Co, Ni, and Fe showed that Th gets adsorbed preferentially as compared to other metal ions. In addition, the MOF could be used multiple times without much deterioration.

Abstract
The capture of radioactive iodine is an inevitable requirement in nuclear industry for environmental protection. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a new generation of sorbents that have wide applications for iodine adsorption and recovery. Although the loading of MOFs on wood can avoid the drawbacks of the powder form of MOFs in implementation, the dense structure of wood results in the lower loading, even after delignification, which limits the adsorption capacity. Herein, a hierarchically porous UiO-66-NH2 @WCA composite was fabricated by in-situ synthesis of UiO-66-NH2 in wood-derived cellulose aerogel (WCA) that was further removed hemicellulose from delignified wood. UiO-66-NH2 @WCA exhibited a high loading (36 wt%) of UiO-66-NH2 crystals and a high adsorption capacity of 704 mg/g for iodine vapor and 248 mg/g for iodine aqueous solution. The adsorption behavior in iodine aqueous solution was well predicted by the Freundlich isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The adsorption capacity of UiO-66-NH2 @WCA was highest in solution when the pH was 6, while the ionic strength had little effect. The hydroxyl groups on the WCA matrix had a charge transfer effect with iodine, providing additional sites for iodine capture. Furthermore, a packed column system was applied to demonstrate the excellent recyclability and potential for practical application.

Abstract
Simple synthetic modulation based on thorium nitrate and tris((4-carboxyl)phenylduryl)amine (H3TCBPA) gives rise to a new thorium-based metal-organic framework, Th-TCBPA, which features excellent hydrolytic and thermal stabilities. Incorporating electron-rich TCBPA3- linkers not only endows Th-TCBPA with high adsorption capacity toward radioiodine vapor, but also makes it a luminescence sensor for the highly sensitive and selective detection of Cr(VI) anions.

Abstract
The treatment of radioactive iodine in nuclear waste has always been a critical issue of social concern. The rational design of targeted and efficient capture materials is of great significance to the sustainable development of the ecological environment. In recent decades, crystalline materials have served as a molecular platform to study the binding process and capture mechanism of iodine molecules, enabling people to understand the interaction between radioactive iodine guests and pores intuitively. Cluster-based crystalline materials, including molecular clusters and cluster-based metal-organic frameworks, are emerging candidates for iodine capture due to their aggregative binding sites, precise structural information, tunable pores/packing patterns, and abundant modifications. Herein, recent progress of different types of cluster materials and cluster-dominated metal-organic porous materials for iodine capture is reviewed. Research prospects, design strategies to improve the affinity for iodine and possible capture mechanisms are discussed.

Abstract
Effective capture of radioactive iodine is highly desirable for decontamination purposes in spent fuel reprocessing. Cu-based adsorbents with a low cost and high chemical affinity for I2 molecules act as a decent candidate for iodine elimination, but the low utilization and stability remain a significant challenge. Herein, a facile in situ confined synthesis strategy is developed to design and synthesize a copper-encapsulated flaky silicalite-1 (Cu@FSL-1) zeolite with a thickness of ≤300 nm. The maximum iodine uptake capacity of Cu@FSL-1 can reach 625 mg g-1 within 45 min, which is 2 times higher than that of a commercial silver-exchanged zeolite even after nitric acid and NOX treatment. The Cu nanoparticles (NPs) confined within the zeolite exert superior iodine adsorption and immobilization properties as well as high stability and fast adsorption kinetics endowed by the all-silica zeolite matrix. This study provides new insight into the design and controlled synthesis of zeolite-confined metal adsorbents for efficient iodine capture from gaseous radioactive streams.

Abstract
The development of effective radioactive iodine adsorption materials from nuclear waste remains a significant challenge due to the drawbacks of the previous technologies such as complex synthesis process, high cost, and low stability. In this work, a Metal Oxidation-Carbon (MOC) composite material was designed and synthesized to solve this problem. The structure, composition, and physicochemical properties of this MOC were characterized to reveal its mesoporous material properties. Experiment results showed that this MOC material contain great physical and chemical adsorption efficiency towards iodine vapor, the adsorption capacity could up to 2647.54 mg/g. And the average desorption rate of 86.57% (in absolute ethanol) further proved its advanced recyclability. Moreover, this mesoporous material has great prospects in industrialization due to its simple one-step synthesis method, well-defined adsorption mechanism, and competitive application property.

Abstract
Radioactive iodine (129I and 131I), produced or released from nuclear-related activities, posed severe effects on both human health and environment. The efficient removal of radioiodine from aqueous medium and vapor phase is of paramount importance for the sustainable development of nuclear energy. Herein, a metal-organic framework (MOF) nanosheet with a positive charge was constructed for the capture of iodine for the first time. The as-synthesized ultrathin nanosheets, with a thickness of 4.4 ± 0.1 nm, showed a record-high iodine adsorption capacity (3704.08 mg g-1) from aqueous solution, which is even higher than that from the vapor phase (3510.05 mg g-1). It can be ascribed to the fully interactions between the extensive accessible active sites on the largely exposed surface of 2D MOF nanosheets and the target pollutants, which also gave rise to fast adsorption kinetics with relative high removal efficiencies in the low concentrations, even in seawater. Moreover, a facile recyclability with fast desorption kinetics can also be achieved for the MOF nanosheets. The excellent iodine removal performance in aqueous solution demonstrated that the electrostatic attraction between MOF nanosheets with a positive charge and the negatively charged triiodide (I3-, the dominant form of iodine in aqueous solution) is the driving force in adsorption, which endows the adsorbents with the characteristics of fast adsorption and desorption kinetics. The adsorption mechanism was systematically verified by the studies of ζ potential, Fourier transform infrared, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Raman spectra.

Abstract
We report the synthesis, characterization, and iodine capture application of a novel thorium-organic nanotube, TSN-626, [Th6O4(OH)4(C6H4NO2)7(CHO2)5(H2O)3]·3H2O. The classification as a metal-organic nanotube (MONT) distinguishes it as a rare and reduced dimensionality subset of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs); the structure is additionally hallmarked by low node connectivity. TSN-626 is composed of hexameric thorium secondary building units and mixed O/N-donor isonicotinate ligands that demonstrate selective ditopicity, yielding both terminating and bridging moieties. Because hard Lewis acid tetravalent metals have a propensity to bind with electron donors of rival hardness (e.g., carboxylate groups), such Th-N coordination in a MOF is uncommon. However, the formation of key structural Th-N bonds in TSN-626 cap some of the square antiprismatic metal centers, a position usually occupied by terminal water ligands. TSN-626 was characterized by using complementary analytical and computational techniques: X-ray diffraction, vibrational spectroscopy, N2 physisorption isotherms, and density functional theory. TSN-626 satisfies design aspects for the chemisorption of iodine. The synergy between accessibility through pores, vacancies at the metal-oxo nodes, and pendent N-donor sites allowed a saturated iodine loading of 955 mg g-1 by vapor methods. The crystallization of TSN-626 diversifies actinide-MOF linker selection to include soft electron donors, and these Th-N linkages can be leveraged for the investigation of metal-to-ligand bonding and unconventional topological expressions.

Abstract
The capture of radioactive iodine has recently attracted much attention due to the release of radioactive iodine during nuclear waste disposal and disasters. Exploring highly efficient, sustainable, and eco-friendly materials for capturing radioactive iodine has great significance in developing safe nuclear energy. We reported highly efficient, natural, lignin-based, electrospun nanofibers (LNFs) for reversible radioiodine capture. Abundant iodine adsorption sites, such as functional groups and the interaction between the intermolecular forces exist in LNFs. The capacity of the LNFs for the saturated adsorption of iodine was found to be 220 mg·g-1, which is higher than that of the majority of bio-based adsorbents studied. Moreover, the LNFs exhibited an excellent recycling behavior, and their absorption capacity remained at 84.72% after 10 recycles. Therefore, the results imply that the lignin-based nanofibers can act as a natural, sustainable and eco-friendly packed material for the purification columns in industrial applications. The results demonstrate that the novel, nanostructured, natural biomass, as an ideal candidate has the potential for practical nuclear wastewater purification.

Abstract
This perspective highlights the recent advances in the structural and practical aspects of thorium-based metal-organic frameworks (Th-MOFs) and molecular clusters. Thorium, as an underexplored actinide, features surprisingly rich coordination geometries and accessibility of the 5f orbital. These features lead to a myriad of topologies and electronic structures, many of which are undocumented for other tetravalent metal-containing MOFs or clusters. Moreover, Th-MOFs inherit the modularity, structural tunability, porosity, and versatile functionality of the state-of-the-art MOFs. Recognizing the radioactive nature of these thorium-bearing materials that may limit their practical uses, Th-MOFs and Th-clusters still have great potential for various applications, including radionuclide sequestration, hydrocarbon storage/separation, radiation detection, photoswitch, CO2 conversion, photocatalysis, and electrocatalysis. The objective of this updated perspective is to propose pathways for the renaissance of interest in thorium-based materials.

Abstract
Recently, the development of porous absorbents for efficient CO2 and I2 capture has attracted considerable attention because of severe global climate change and environmental issues with the nuclear energy. Hence, a unique porous metal-organic framework (MOF), {[Co(L)]·DMF·2H2O}n (1, DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide) with uncoordinated N atoms was rationally constructed via using a heterofunctional 4,6-bis(4'-carboxyphenyl)pyrimidine (H2L) linker. Interestingly, 1 exhibits exceptional properties for I2 sorption, CO2 capture, and catalytic conversion. Particularly, I2 can be efficiently removed in both vapor and solution forms, and the adsorption amount can reach 676.25 and 345.28 mg g-1, respectively. Furthermore, complex 1 displays high adsorption capacity for CO2 (53.78 cm3 g-1, 273 K). Consequently, 1 is expected to be a promising and practical material for environmental purification due to its excellent adsorption properties.

Abstract
Eight cationic, two‐dimensional metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) were synthesized in reactions of the group 13 metal halides AlBr3, AlI3, GaBr3, InBr3 and InI3 with the dipyridyl ligands 1,2‐di(4‐pyridyl)ethylene (bpe), 1,2‐di(4‐pyridyl)ethane (bpa) and 4,4’‐bipyridine (bipy). Seven of them follow the general formula 2∞[MX2(L)2]A, M=Al, In, X=Br, I, A−=[MX4]−, I−, I3−, L=bipy, bpa, bpe. Thereby, the porosity of the cationic frameworks can be utilized to take up the heavy molecule iodine in gas‐phase chemisorption vital for the capture of iodine radioisotopes. This is achieved by switching between I− and the polyiodide I3− in the cavities at room temperature, including single‐crystal‐to‐single‐crystal transformation. The MOFs are 2D networks that exhibit (4,4)‐topology in general or (6,3)‐topology for 2∞[(GaBr2)2(bpa)5][GaBr4]2⋅bpa. The two‐dimensional networks can either be arranged to an inclined interpenetration of the cationic two‐dimensional networks, or to stacked networks without interpenetration. Interpenetration is accompanied by polycatenation. Due to the cationic character, the MOFs require the counter ions [MX4]−, I− or I3− counter ions in their pores. Whereas the [MX4]−, ions are immobile, iodide allows for chemisorption. Furthermore, eight additional coordination polymers and complexes were identified and isolated that elaborate the reaction space of the herein reported syntheses.

Abstract
Nuclear power will continue to provide energy for the foreseeable future, but it can pose significant challenges in terms of the disposal of waste and potential release of untreated radioactive substances. Iodine is a volatile product from uranium fission and is particularly problematic due to its solubility. Different isotopes of iodine present different issues for people and the environment. 129I has an extremely long half-life of 1.57 × 107 years and poses a long-term environmental risk due to bioaccumulation. In contrast, 131I has a shorter half-life of 8.02 days and poses a significant risk to human health. There is, therefore, an urgent need to develop secure, efficient and economic stores to capture and sequester ionic and neutral iodine residues. Metal-organic framework (MOF) materials are a new generation of solid sorbents that have wide potential applicability for gas adsorption and substrate binding, and recently there is emerging research on their use for the selective adsorptive removal of iodine. Herein, we review the state-of-the-art performance of MOFs for iodine adsorption and their host-guest chemistry. Various aspects are discussed, including establishing structure-property relationships between the functionality of the MOF host and iodine binding. The techniques and methodologies used for the characterisation of iodine adsorption and of iodine-loaded MOFs are also discussed together with strategies for designing new MOFs that show improved performance for iodine adsorption.

Abstract
The controllable design, synthesis and functional properties of a series of triazine tetratopic carboxylic MOFs have always been hotspots and challenges for research. Based on the characterization of the C-Cl bond on the triazine skeleton being easily substituted by some functional groups, we designed and synthesized a series of triazine tetratopic carboxylic Cu(II) and Zn(II) MOFs via the reaction of Cu(NO3)2·2.5H2O and ZnSO4·7H2O, as well as triazine tetratopic carboxylic H4TDBA-Cl (H4TBDA-Cl = 5,5'-((6-chloro-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diyl)bis(azanediyl))diisophthalic acid) under hydrothermal conditions. During the process of synthesizing, the C-Cl bond on the triazine skeleton of the ligand was substituted with different groups, which formed the complexes ([Cu2(TBDA-Cl)(H2O)·10DMF·30H2O]n) (DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide) (1), N(Me)2 -[(CH3)2NH2]4·[Zn3(HTBDA-N)2(SO4)2]n (2) and H ([Cu2(TBDA-H)(H2O)]n) (3), respectively. It is worth noting that the in situ substitution reaction occurred for complexes 2 and 3 during the process of synthesis. Also, the structural analysis showed that the molecules in complexes 1-3 were connected with different building blocks to form different three-dimensional structures. We performed iodine adsorption experiments on the three complexes and found that there was a significant relationship between the structural configuration and adsorption behaviour. The results showed that the complex 1 with the Cl atom on the triazine skeleton could have a boosting effect on adsorption with iodine. It displayed a remarkable adsorption effect for iodine (in the solution of water: 7.6 g g-1 and in the solution of cyclohexane: 548.2 mg g-1). In addition, it also displayed the adsorption effect for JGB dye (204.9 mg g-1). For complex 2, it displayed an uptake effect for iodine in the solution of cyclohexane (529 mg g-1). The possible adsorption mechanism was also investigated. By comparison, we found that chlorine atoms could play an important role in the adsorption processes. The adsorption capacity of complex 1 (containing the chlorine atom in the structure) was much higher than that for complex 3.

Abstract
In this work, we selected terephthalic acid or 2-amino-terephthalic acid as ligand, transition metal manganese salt as metal source under the solvothermal conditions to successfully construct two kinds of manganese-based metal-organic frameworks (Mn-MOFs): Mn3(BDC)3(H2O)2 (1) and Mn3(NH2-BDC)3(DMF)4 (2) (H2BDC = terephthalic acid; NH2-BDC = 2-amino terephthalic acid; DMF = N, N-dimethyl formamide). It was characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectrum, thermogravimetric analysis (TG), X-ray powder diffraction (PXRD) and UV-vis absorption spectrum. It was found that the packing structures of compounds 1 and 2 were constructed by the trinuclear Mn3O16 building block and exhibited different spatial structure: compound 1 was a three-dimensional structure, and 2 was a two-dimensional network structure. The iodine adsorption in cyclohexane solution properties of compounds 1 and 2 were investigated. Research results showed that the uncoordinated amino group in the structure of framework compounds has a great influence on the iodine adsorption capacity and compound 2 had good adsorption property and reusability.

Abstract
A brand-new application of thorium-bearing clusters in the field of ionizing radiation detection is exemplified by two novel hexanuclear thorium clusters, Th-bppCOO-1 and Th-bppCOO-2, which incorporate carboxylate-functionalized 2,6-di(pyrazol-1-yl)pyridine ligands. Notably, Th-bppCOO-1 is composed of an unprecedented [Th6(OH)4O4(H2O)5]12+ secondary building unit, the Th6 core of which is decorated by five H2O molecules. Furthermore, selective photoluminescence quenching responses of Th-bppCOO-1 and Th-bppCOO-2 toward X-ray over UV radiation have been demonstrated for the first time.

Abstract
Single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation of metal-organic frameworks has been met with great interest, as it allows for the creation of new materials in a stepwise manner and direct visualization of structural transitions when subjected to external stimuli. However, it remains a peculiarity among numerous metal-organic frameworks, particularly for the ones constructed from tetravalent metal cations. Herein, we present a cationic thorium-organic framework displaying unprecedented triple single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformations in organic solvents, water, and NaIO3 solution. Notably, both the interpenetration conversion and topological change driven by the SC-SC transformation have remained elusive for thorium-organic frameworks. Moreover, the single-crystal-to-single-crystal transition in NaIO3 solution can efficiently and selectively turn the ligand-based emission off, leading to the lowest limit of detection (0.107 μg kg-1) of iodate, one of the primary species of long-lived fission product 129I in aqueous medium, among all luminescent sensors.

Unveiling the Unique Roles of Metal Coordination and Modulator in the Polymorphism Control of Metal-Organic Frameworks. Chemistry 2021; 27:17586-17594. [PMID: 34734437 DOI: 10.1002/chem.202103062] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2021] [Indexed: 11/12/2022]
Abstract
Polymorphism control of metal-organic frameworks is highly desired for elucidating structure-property relationships, but remains an empirical process and is usually done in a trial-and-error approach. We adopted the rarely used actinide cation Th4+ and a ditopic linker to construct a series of thorium-organic frameworks (TOFs) with a range of polymorphs. The extraordinary coordination versatility of Th4+ cations and clusters, coupled with synthetic modulation, gives five distinct phases, wherein the highest degree of interpenetration (threefold) and porosity (75.9 %) of TOFs have been achieved. Notably, the O atom on the capping site of the nine-coordinated Th4+ cation can function as a bridging unit to interconnect neighboring secondary building units (SBUs), affording topologies that are undocumented for other tetravalent-metal-containing MOFs. Furthermore, for the first time HCOOH has been demonstrated as a bridging unit of SBUs to further induce structural complexity. The resulting TOFs exhibit considerably different adsorption behaviors toward organic dyes, thus suggesting that TOFs represent an exceptional and promising platform for structure-property relationship study.

Abstract
The safe and effective capture and storage of iodine from nuclear waste is of great significance in industry. This article reports the preparation of a series of millimeter-sized ZIF-8@polyacrylonitrile composite beads with high specific surface area and porosity by the phase inversion method for iodine capture. The composite beads showed a higher capture capacity (4150 mg g−1) under excess iodine vapor. The amount of iodine adsorbed in the organic solution is also as high as 643 mg g−1, and the adsorption conforms to the Freundlich isotherm and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Moreover, composite beads also exhibit higher thermal stability (310 °C). Therefore, ZIF-8@polyacrylonitrile composite beads show great potential as a material for capturing and temporarily storing radioactive iodine.

Abstract
Developing an efficient and cheap iodine sorbent is of great practical significance in the modern nuclear industry. In this work, novel bismuth and silver functionalized Ni foam composites as iodine sorption materials (Bi-Ni foam and Ag-Ni foam) were successfully prepared via a simple solvothermal method. Through a series of iodine sorption experiments and characterization methods, iodine capture properties and corresponding sorption mechanism were comprehensively compared and thoroughly revealed. The results show that the core-sheath structure formed by the solvothermal reaction can supply more active sites (Bi0 or Ag0 particles) for the contact of radioactive iodine gas, thereby improving the sorption capacity of sorbents. Compared with Ag-Ni foam (456 mg/g), Bi-Ni foam exhibits a higher iodine capture capacity (658 mg/g), whereas silver-based material has a faster sorption kinetics. Such excellent sorption performances were attributed to the chemical reaction between Bi0/Ag0 particles and iodine gas, generating stable BiI3/AgI. In addition, this type of sorbents inherits the external structure of the Ni foam skeleton, decreasing the physically sorbed iodine, and can be prepared in different shapes and sizes, which is of great practical significance.

Abstract
The rational design and synthesis of metal-organic frameworks with well-controlled interpenetration have been active research areas of inquiry, particularly for porosity-related applications. Herein, we extend the use of the ligand steric modulation strategy to initiate the first study of the interpenetration control of thorium-based MOFs. The approximate "hardness" of the Th4+ cation, which was conjugated with aromatic substitutions and delicately modified synthetic conditions, allows for the crystallization of single crystals of seven new Th-MOFs with five distinct topologies. Solvothermal reactions of Th(NO3)4 with the triphenyl H2TPDC ligand under variable conditions exclusively gave rise to an interpenetrated Th-MOF with a hex topology, namely Th-SINAP-16. Modifications of the ligand sterics with two pendant methyl groups to 2',5'-Me2TPDC2- and 2,2″-Me2TPDC2- afforded two noninterpenetrated UiO-68-type Th-MOFs (Th-SINAP-17 and Th-SINAP-20, respectively) with record-high pore volumes (74.8% and 75.3%, respectively) among all the thorium MOFs. Moreover, another four Th-MOFs Th-SINAP-n (n = 18, 19, 21, and 22) with three different topologies were obtained by a simple synthetic modulation. Notably, Th-SINAP-16 and Th-SINAP-21 represent the second rare examples of interpenetrated Th-MOFs reported to date. These findings revealed the unprecedented structural complexity and synthetic accessibility of Th-MOFs among all tetravalent metal containing MOFs. Such features make Th-MOFs as an ideal platform to elucidate the structure-property relationship for various applications, e.g. iodine adsorption.

Abstract
Rational design and synthesis of new photochromic sensors have been active research areas of inquiry, particularly on how to predict and tailor their properties and functionalities. Herein, two thulium 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine-4'-carboxylate (TPC)-functionalized metal-organic hybrids, Tm(TPC)2(HCOO)(H2O) (TmTPC-1) and Tm(TPC)(HCOO)2 (TmTPC-2) with different photochromic response behaviors, have been successfully prepared, allowing for straightforward investigations of the structure-property correlation. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction and electron paramagnetic resonance analyses revealed that the incorporation of a unique dangling decorating TPC unit in TmTPC-1 offers a shorter and more accessible π-π interaction pathway between the adjacent TPC moieties than that in TmTPC-2. Such a structural feature leads to the production of radical species via a photoinduced intermolecular electron-transfer (IeMCT) process upon UV or X-ray irradiation, which ultimately endows TmTPC-1 with a rather unusual UV and X-ray dual photochromism. A linear relationship between the change of UV-vis absorbance intensity and X-ray dose was established, making TmTPC-1 a promising dosimeter for X-ray radiation with an extremely high energy threshold (30 kGy). To advance the development for real-world application, we have fabricated polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes incorporating TmTPC-1 for functioning either as a UV imager or as an X-ray radiation indicator. Lastly, TmTPC-1 exhibits high thermal stability (up to 400 °C) and radioresistance (at least 900 kGy), and also excellent reversibility of photochromic transformation (at least 5 cycles).
