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
Thermocatalysis of CO2 into high valuable products is an efficient and green method for mitigating global warming and other environmental problems, of which Noble-metal-free metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are one of the most promising heterogeneous catalysts for CO2 thermocatalysis, and many excellent researches have been published. Hence, this review focuses on the valuable products obtained from various CO2 conversion reactions catalyzed by noble-metal-free MOFs, such as cyclic carbonates, oxazolidinones, carboxylic acids, N-phenylformamide, methanol, ethanol, and methane. We classified these published references according to the types of products, and analyzed the methods for improving the catalytic efficiency of MOFs in CO2 reaction. The advantages of using noble-metal-free MOF catalysts for CO2 conversion were also discussed along the text. This review concludes with future perspectives on the challenges to be addressed and potential research directions. We believe that this review will be helpful to readers and attract more scientists to join the topic of CO2 conversion.

Abstract
Located at the foot of the periodic table, uranium is a relatively underexplored element possessing rich chemistry. In addition to its high relevance to nuclear power, uranium shows promise for small molecule activation and photocatalysis, among many other powerful functions. Researchers have used metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to harness uranium's properties, and in their quest to do so, have discovered remarkable structures and unique properties unobserved in traditional transition metal MOFs. More recently, (e.g. the last 8-10 years), theoretical calculations of framework energetics have supplemented structure-property studies in uranium MOFs (U-MOFs). In this Perspective, we summarize how these budding energy-structure-property relationships in U-MOFs enable a deeper understanding of chemical phenomena, enlarge chemical space, and elevate the field to targeted, rather than exploratory, discovery. Importantly, this Perspective encourages interdisciplinary connections between experimentalists and theorists by demonstrating how these collaborations have elevated the entire U-MOF field.

[PMID: 36910938 PMCID: PMC9996810 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c00640] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2023] [Accepted: 02/14/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
As an aprotic O-donor ligand, 4,4'-bipyridine N,N'-dioxide (DPO) shows good potential for the preparation of uranyl coordination compounds. In this work, by regulating reactant compositions and synthesis conditions, diverse coordination assembly between uranyl and DPO under different reaction conditions was achieved in the presence of other coexisting O-donors. A total of ten uranyl-DPO compounds, U-DPO-1 to U-DPO-10, have been synthesized by evaporation or hydro/solvothermal treatment, and the possible competition and cooperation of DPO with other O-donors for the formation of these uranyl-DPO compounds are discussed. Starting with an aqueous solution of uranyl nitrate, it is found that an anionic nitrate or hydroxyl group is involved in the coordination sphere of uranyl in U-DPO-1 ((UO2)(NO3)2(H2O)2·(DPO)), U-DPO-2 ((UO2)(NO3)2(DPO)), and U-DPO-3 ((UO2)(DPO)(μ2-OH)2), where DPO takes three different kinds of coordination modes, i.e. uncoordinated, monodentate, and biconnected. The utilization of UO2(CF3SO3)2 in acetonitrile, instead of an aqueous solution of uranyl nitrate, precludes the participation of nitrate and hydroxyl, and ensures the engagement of DPO ligands (4-5 DPO ligands for each uranyl) in a uranyl coordination sphere of U-DPO-4 ([(UO2)(CF3SO3)(DPO)2](CF3SO3)), U-DPO-5 ([UO2(H2O)(DPO)2](CF3SO3)2) and U-DPO-6 ([(UO2)(DPO)2.5](CF3SO3)2). Moreover, when combined with anionic carboxylate ligands, terephthalic acid (H2TPA), isophthalic acid (H2IPA), and succinic acid (H2SA), DPO works well with them to produce four mixed-ligand uranyl compounds with similar structures of two-dimensional (2D) networks or three-dimensional (3D) frameworks, U-DPO-7 ((UO2)(TPA)(DPO)), U-DPO-8 ((UO2)2(DPO)(IPA)2·0.5H2O), U-DPO-9 ((UO2)(SA)(DPO)·H2O), and U-DPO-10 ((UO2)2(μ2-OH)(SA)1.5(DPO)). Density functional theory (DFT) calculations conducted to probe the bonding features between uranyl ions and different O-donor ligands show that the bonding ability of DPO is better than that of anionic CF3SO3 -, nitrate, and a neutral H2O molecule and comparable to that of an anionic carboxylate group. Characterization of physicochemical properties of U-DPO-7 and U-DPO-10 with high phase purity including infrared (IR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and luminescence properties is also provided.

Abstract
Eight new stable porous lanthanide metal-organic frameworks (Ln-OFs), namely, [Ln2(BPTC)2][(CH3)2NH2]2 [Ln = Ho (1), Eu (2), Gd (3), Dy (4), Er (5), Tm (6), Yb (7), Lu (8)], were prepared by 3,3',5,5'-biphenyltetracarboxylic acid (H4BPTC) and lanthanide ions by solvothermal reactions. Complexes 1-8 show a three-dimensional (3D) 6,6-connected network {412·63}·{48·66·8} topology based on binuclear (Ln2) clusters and feature a one-dimensional curving porous channel occupied by exchangeable dimethylamine cations ([(CH3)2NH2]+) in the 3D anionic frameworks. The occupied [(CH3)2NH2]+ in the anionic channels exhibited excellent ion-exchange ability, which is favorable to Pd2+ and cationic dye adsorption. Consequently, 1-8 were used to load Pd nanoparticles to catalyze the reduction of nitrophenols and adsorb and desorb methyl blue (MB). The catalytic reaction efficiencies of Pd@1-8 were higher than that of Pd/C (5 wt %) in the hydrogenation reaction of p-nitrophenol (p-NP). Moreover, Pd@1 exhibited good cycle stability and achieved nearly 100% p-NP conversion after eight cycles. Meanwhile, compound 1 also exhibited a high adsorption ability of MB, possessing an adsorption capacity of 1.41 g·g-1 (second only to 1.49 g·g-1 reported in the literature) selectively over rhodamine B (RhB) and methyl orange (MO) in aqueous solutions. Remarkably, the skeleton of 1 remained stable after four adsorption-desorption cycles of MB in aqueous solution.

Abstract
Designing novel catalysts is essential for the efficient conversion of metal alkylidyne into metal oxo ketene complexes in the presence of CO2, which to some extent resolves the environmental concerns of the ever-increasing carbon emission. In this regard, a series of metal alkylidyne complexes, [b-ONO]M≡CCH3(THF)2 ([b-ONO] = {(C6H4[C(CF3)2O])2N}3-; M = Cr, Mo, W, and U), have been comprehensively studied by relativistic density functional theory calculations. The calculated thermodynamics and kinetics unravel that the tungsten complex is capable of catalyzing the CO2 cleavage reaction, agreeing with the experimental findings for its analogue. Interestingly, the uranium complex shows superior catalytic performance because of the associated considerably lower energy barrier and larger reaction rate constant. The M≡C moiety in the complexes turns out to be the active site for the [2 + 2] cyclic addition. In contrast, complexes of Cr and Mo could not offer good catalytic performance. Along the reaction coordinate, the M-C (M = Cr, Mo, W, and U) bond regularly transforms from triple to double to single bonds; concomitantly, the newly formed M-O in the product is identified to have a triple-bond character. The catalytic reactions have been extensively explained and addressed by geometric/electronic structures and bonding analyses.
