Abstract
The combination of compositional versatility and topological diversity for the integration of electroactive species into high-porosity molecular architectures is perhaps one of the main appeals of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in the field of electrocatalysis. This premise has attracted much interest in recent years, and the results generated have also revealed one of the main limitations of molecular materials in this context: low stability under electrocatalytic conditions. Using zirconium MOFs as a starting point, in this work, we use this stability as a variable to discriminate between the most suitable electrocatalytic reaction and specific topologies within this family. Our results revealed that the PCN-224 family is particularly suitable for the electroreduction of molecular nitrogen for the formation of ammonia with faradaic efficiencies above 30% in the presence of Ni2+ sites, an activity that improves most of the catalysts described. We also introduce the fluorination of porphyrin at the meso position as a good alternative to improve both the activity and stability of this material under electrocatalytic conditions.

Water sensitivity of heteroepitaxial Cu-MOF films: dissolution and re-crystallization of 3D-oriented MOF superstructures. Chem Sci 2023; 14:12056-12067. [PMID: 37969597 PMCID: PMC10631222 DOI: 10.1039/d3sc04135b] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2023] [Accepted: 10/12/2023] [Indexed: 11/17/2023] Open
Abstract
3D-oriented metal-organic framework (MOF) films and patterns have recently emerged as promising platforms for sensing and photonic applications. These oriented polycrystalline materials are typically prepared by heteroepitaxial growth from aligned inorganic nanostructures and display anisotropic functional properties, such as guest molecule alignment and polarized fluorescence. However, to identify suitable conditions for the integration of these 3D-oriented MOF superstructures into functional devices, the effect of water (gaseous and liquid) on different frameworks should be determined. We note that the hydrolytic stability of these heteroepitaxially grown MOF films is currently unexplored. In this work, we present an in-depth analysis of the structural evolution of aligned 2D and 3D Cu-based MOFs grown from Cu(OH)2 coatings. Specifically, 3D-oriented Cu2L2 and Cu2L2DABCO films (L = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate, BDC; biphenyl-4,4-dicarboxylate, BPDC; DABCO = 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane) were exposed to 50% relative humidity (RH), 80% RH and liquid water. The combined use of X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy shows that the sensitivity towards humid environments critically depends on the presence of the DABCO pillar ligand. While oriented films of 2D MOF layers stay intact upon exposure to all levels of humidity, hydrolysis of Cu2L2DABCO is observed. In addition, we report that in environments with high water content, 3D-oriented Cu2(BDC)2DABCO recrystallizes as 3D-oriented Cu2(BDC)2. The heteroepitaxial MOF-to-MOF transformation mechanism was studied with in situ synchrotron experiments, time-resolved AFM measurements, and electron diffraction. These findings provide valuable information on the stability of oriented MOF films for their application in functional devices and highlight the potential for the fabrication of 3D-oriented superstructures via MOF-to-MOF transformations.

Abstract
Despite the rapid development of versatile metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), the synthesis of water-stable MOFs remains challenging, which significantly limits their practical applications. Herein, a novel engineering strategy was developed to prepare superhydrophobic MOFs by an in situ fluorinated microporous organic network (FMON) coating. Through controllable modification, the resulting MOF@FMON retained the porosity and crystallinity of the pristine MOFs. Owing to the superhydrophobicity of the FMON and the feasibility of MOF synthesis, the FMON coating could be in situ integrated with various water-sensitive MOFs to provide superhydrophobicity. The coating thickness and hydrophobicity of the MOF@FMON composites were easily regulated by changing the FMON monomer concentration. The MOF@FMON composites exhibited excellent oil/water separation and catalytic activities and enhanced durability in aqueous solutions. This study provides a general approach for the synthesis of superhydrophobic MOFs, expanding the application scope of MOFs.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous hybrid materials with countless potential applications. Most of these rely on their porous structure, tunable composition, and the possibility of incorporating and expanding their functions. Although functionalization of the inner surface of MOF crystals has received considerable attention in recent years, methods to functionalize selectively the outer crystal surface of MOFs are developed to a lesser extent, despite their importance. This article summarizes different types of post-synthetic modifications and possible applications of modified materials such as: catalysis, adsorption, drug delivery, mixed matrix membranes, and stabilization of porous liquids.

Abstract
ConspectusCompositing MOFs with polymers brings out the best properties of both worlds. The solubility and excellent mechanical properties of polymers endow the brittle, powdery MOFs with enhanced processability, thereby enriching their functions as solid sorbents, filters, membranes, catalysts, drug delivery vehicles, and so forth. While most MOF-polymer composites are random mixtures of two materials with little control over their fine structures, MOF@polymer core-shell particles have recently emerged as a new platform for precise composite design. The well-defined polymer coating can keep the rich pore characteristics of the MOF intact while furnishing the MOF with new properties such as improved dispersibility in various media, tunable surface energy, enhanced chemical stability, and regulated guest diffusion. Nevertheless, the structural and chemical complexity of MOFs poses a grand challenge to the development of a generalizable and feasible strategy for constructing MOF@polymer. Examples in the literature that showcase the presence of a well-defined polymer shell on the MOF with fully reserved porosity are rare. Moreover, methods for coating MOFs with condensation polymers (e.g., polyimide, polysulfone) are severely underexplored, despite their clear potential as membrane materials. In this Account, we present our group's effort over the past 4 years on the synthesis and applications of MOF@polymer composites. We first described a highly generalizable surface polymerization method that utilizes the rapid physisorption of a random copolymer (RCP) to carry initiating groups to the MOF surfaces. Subsequent controlled radical polymerization led to the formation of a uniform methacrylate or styrenic polymer on the MOF with tunable thickness and composition. To utilize the properties of condensation polymers, we pioneered the covalent grafting of polyimide (PI) brushes to UiO-66-NH2 surfaces. In addition, to circumvent the need for a covalent anchoring group, we further developed an MOF surface grafting method based on mechanical linkage. Instead of connecting to the ligand, polyimide (PI) oligomer was linked to a functionalized linear polymer physically entangled within an MOF, thus realizing surface grafting with PI. Alternatively, PIs, polysulfone (PSF), and polycarbonate (PC) can also be grafted to various MOF surfaces through a metal-organic nanocapsule (MONC)-mediated method using a combination of electrostatic interaction and coordination bonds. To find a rapid and low-cost surface coating method suitable for commercialization, a new approach called non-solvent-induced surface-aimed deposition (NISAP) was developed. The action of the solvent phase separation drives dianhydrides and polyamines to the MOF surface, thus realizing accelerated polymerization and the rapid formation of a polymer coating on the MOF. Finally, we provided an overview of the unique properties and potential applications of MOF@polymer composites, including improved stability, MMMs, porous liquids (PLs), and immobilizing homogeneous catalysts. We hope that this Account can inspire more researchers to further develop and optimize the synthetic strategies for MOF@polymer and uncover its full application potential.

Abstract
When compared to industrially stable zeolites, the instability of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has been denounced by researchers. Boosting the stability of existing MOFs is highly important for practical applications. In this report, we develop a new strategy to prepare MOFs/poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) composites, which can highly improve the chemical, pressure, and photostabilities of zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF)-8. Composite materials were prepared by a physical blending of ZIF-8 and PTFE emulsion with different ratios and annealing at 370 °C. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies reveal that the nanoparticles of ZIF-8 are coated by PTFE to form the composite materials. Upon mixing with 20 or 50 wt % PTFE, the ZIF-8/PTFE materials show a superhydrophobic property with water contact angles of around 156°. Pristine ZIF-8 is not stable in water with stirring under acidic, basic, and irradiation conditions, while the ZIF-8/PTFE materials are stable under the same conditions. The ZIF-8/PTFE materials can also maintain their crystalline structure after being compressed with a 10 MPa pressure, while pristine ZIF-8 changes to an amorphous solid after the same pressure treatment. Using water as a solvent, ZIF-8/PTFE can be used as a highly efficient and recyclable catalyst for Knoevenagel reaction at room temperature. The successful preparation of stable ZIF-8/PTFE composite materials provides a useful method to enhance the chemical, pressure, and photostabilities of MOFs.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), as a chemical platform, combined with multifunctional polymers are of interest in catalytic applications, which can not only inherit the outstanding properties of the two components but also lead to unique synergistic effects. Nonetheless, most MOFs possess varying degrees of water instability, which limits their real application. Herein, we fabricated highly hydrophobic MOF/polymer composites via a universal post-synthetic polymerization strategy as efficient catalysts. Polyaniline (PANI) was first hybridized with MOFs by vapor deposition polymerization, and then, hydrophobic molecules were grafted to the PANI by a covalent linking process, thereby forming a superhydrophobic MOF/PANI hybrid material (MOF/PANI-shp). The resultant MOF/PANI-shp not only obtains superior moisture/water resistance without significantly disturbing the original features but also exhibits a novel catalytic selectivity in styrene oxidation because of the accessible sites and synergistic effects. Such a synthetic strategy for the MOF/polymer catalyst opens a new avenue for the design of a unique catalyst with outstanding catalytic efficiency, selectivity, and stability.

Abstract
The poor stability and low catalytic activity of NH2-UiO-66 in basic solutions require the reactions to be conducted in acidic solutions, which seriously hinders its potential photocatalytic application. Herein, we report that NH2-UiO-66 coated with two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (COFs) via imine bond connection presents not only high photocatalytic activity but also high stability and adaptability to the solution environment. The NH2-UiO-66/COF hybrid material was fabricated through the Schiff base reaction of NH2-UiO-66 with 4,4',4″-(1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triyl)trianiline (TAPT) and 2,4,6-triformylphloroglucinol (TP). The hybrid material showed high stability in an alkaline environment, with only 4.7% of NH2-UiO-66 decomposed after the photocatalytic reaction. The optimum photocatalytic H2 evolution rate was 8.44 mmol·h-1·g-1 when triethanolamine was used as an electron-donating agent. The results presented here illustrate the possibility for effectively improving both the photocatalytic performance and stability of NH2-UiO-66 by coupling with COFs.

Abstract
Reticular materials are of high interest for diverse applications, ranging from catalysis and separation to gas storage and drug delivery. These open, extended frameworks can be tailored to the intended application through crystal-structure design. Implementing these materials in application settings, however, requires structuring beyond their lattices, to interface the functionality at the molecular level effectively with the macroscopic world. To overcome this barrier, efforts in expressing structural control across molecular, nano-, meso-, and bulk regimes is the essential next step. In this Review, we give an overview of recent advances in using self-assembly as well as externally controlled tools to manufacture reticular materials over all the length scales. We predict that major research advances in deploying these two approaches will facilitate the use of reticular materials in addressing major needs of society.

Abstract
The utilization of polymer/metal organic framework (MOF) nanocomposites in various biomedical applications has been widely studied due to their unique properties that arise from MOFs or hybrid composite systems. This review focuses on the types of polymer/MOF nanocomposites used in drug delivery and imaging applications. Initially, a comprehensive introduction to the synthesis and structure of MOFs and bio-MOFs is presented. Subsequently, the properties and the performance of polymer/MOF nanocomposites used in these applications are examined, in relation to the approach applied for their synthesis: (i) non-covalent attachment, (ii) covalent attachment, (iii) polymer coordination to metal ions, (iv) MOF encapsulation in polymers, and (v) other strategies. A critical comparison and discussion of the effectiveness of polymer/MOF nanocomposites regarding their synthesis methods and their structural characteristics is presented.

Abstract
This review summarizes recent advances in the design and synthesis of stable MOFs and highlights the relationships between the stability and functional applications.
Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have been recognized as one of the most important classes of porous materials due to their unique attributes and chemical versatility. Unfortunately, some MOFs suffer from the drawback of relatively poor stability, which would limit their practical applications. In the recent past, great efforts have been invested in developing strategies to improve the stability of MOFs. In general, stable MOFs possess potential toward a broader range of applications. In this review, we summarize recent advances in the design and synthesis of stable MOFs and MOF-based materials via de novo synthesis and/or post-synthetic structural processing. Also, the relationships between the stability and functional applications of MOFs are highlighted, and finally, the subsisting challenges and the directions that future research in this field may take have been indicated.

Abstract
Development of a stable and prolonged gene delivery system is a key goal in the gene therapy field. To this end, we designed and fabricated a gene delivery system based on multiply-clustered gold particles that could achieve prolonged gene delivery in stem cells, leading to improved induction of differentiation. Methods: Inorganic gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) underwent three rounds of complexation with catechol-functionalized polyethyleneimine (CPEI) and plasmid DNAs (pDNAs), in that order, with addition of heparin (HP) between rounds, yielding multiply-clustered gold-based nanoparticles (mCGNPs). Via metal-catechol group interactions, the AuNP surface was easily coordinated with positively charged CPEIs, which in turn allowed binding of pDNAs. Results: Negatively charged HP was encapsulated with the positive charge of CPEIs via electrostatic interactions, making the NPs more compact. Repeating the complexation process yielded mCGNPs with improved transfection efficiency in human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs); moreover, these particles exhibited lower cytotoxicity and longer expression of pDNAs than conventional NPs. This design was applied to induction of chondrogenesis in hMSCs using pDNA harboring SOX9, an important chondrogenic transcription factor. Prolonged expression of SOX9 induced by mCGNPs triggered expression of chondrocyte extracellular matrix (ECM) protein after 14 days, leading to more efficient chondrogenic differentiation in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
Increasing resistance to humid environments is a major challenge for the application of γ-CD-K-MOF (a green MOF) in real-world utilisation. γ-CD-K-MOF-H2S with enhanced moisture tolerance was obtained by simply treating MOF with H2S gas. XPS, Raman and TGA characterizations indicated that the H2S molecules coordinated with the metal centers in the framework. H2S acting as a newly available water adsorption potential well near the potassium centers protects the metal-ligand coordination bond from attack by water molecules and thus improves the moisture stability of MOF. After 7 days exposure in 60% relative humidity, γ-CD-K-MOF-H2S retained its crystal structure and morphology, while γ-CD-K-MOF had nearly collapsed. In addition, the formaldehyde uptake tests indicated that γ-CD-K-MOF retain their permanent porosity after interaction with H2S. This simple and facile one-step strategy would open a new avenue for preparation of moisture stable MOFs for practical applications.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks are of interest in a number of host-guest applications. However, their weak coordination bonding often leads to instability in aqueous environments, particularly at extreme pH, and hence, is a challenging topic in the field. In this work, a two-step, post-synthetic polymerization method is used to create a series of highly hydrophobic, stable MOF composites. The MOFs are first coated with thin layers of polydopamine from free-base dopamine under a mild oxygen atmosphere, which then undergoes a Michael addition to covalently graft hydrophobic molecules to the external MOF surface. This easy, mild post-synthetic modification is shown to significantly improve the stability of a number of structurally diverse MOFs including HKUST-1 (Cu), ZIF-67 (Co), ZIF-8 (Zn), UiO-66 (Zr), Cu-TDPAT (Cu), Mg-MOF-74 (Mg) and MIL-100 (Fe) in wet, caustic (acidic and basic) environments as determined by powder X-ray diffraction and surface area measurements.

Abstract
Fabrication of low-dimensional nano-MOFs as well as nanoparticles/metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) hybrids has sparked new scientific interests but remains a challenging task. Taking Cu3 (BTC)2 as a proof of concept, it is demonstrated thats NH3 ⋅H2 O solution of a confined pH value can readily shape the bulk Cu3 (BTC)2 into nanoscale Cu3 (BTC)2 , beyond the need to control the crystal growth kinetics of MOFs. Adjusting the pH of NH3 ⋅H2 O within a much small range (10-11) allows fine tuning over the size and shape of nanoscale Cu3 (BTC)2 . Particularly at pH = 11, NH3 ⋅H2 O exhibits weak reducibility that triggers a reduction of part of Cu3 (BTC)2 into Cu2 O, while shaping the other into Cu3 (BTC)2 nanowires. Benefiting from the coincidence of reduction and etching effects, the newly generated Cu2 O dots can in situ anchor onto adjacent Cu3 (BTC)2 nanowires at highly dispersive state, forming a well-defined sponge-like architecture built of Cu2 O dots and nano-Cu3 (BTC)2 . The CuOx derived from annealing of the Cu2 O dots/nano-Cu3 (BTC)2 hybrid preserves the sophisticated sponge architecture and high porosity, and exhibits promising applications in phenol scavenging, with efficiency outperforming its counterparts and many other Cu-based catalysts reported in literature. It is anticipated that the findings here pave the way for the rational design of intricate nano-MOFs in a more efficient way.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of porous inorganic materials with promising properties in gas storage and separation, catalysis and sensing. However, the main issue limiting their applicability is their poor stability in humid conditions. The common methods to overcome this problem involve the formation of strong metal-linker bonds by using highly charged metals, which is limited to a number of structures, the introduction of alkylic groups to the framework by post-synthetic modification (PSM) or chemical vapour deposition (CVD) to enhance overall hydrophobicity of the framework. These last two usually provoke a drastic reduction of the porosity of the material. These strategies do not permit to exploit the properties of the MOF already available and it is imperative to find new methods to enhance the stability of MOFs in water while keeping their properties intact. Herein, we report a novel method to enhance the water stability of MOF crystals featuring Cu2(O2C)4 paddle-wheel units, such as HKUST (where HKUST stands for Hong Kong University of Science & Technology), with the catechols functionalized with alkyl and fluoro-alkyl chains. By taking advantage of the unsaturated metal sites and the catalytic catecholase-like activity of CuII ions, we are able to create robust hydrophobic coatings through the oxidation and subsequent polymerization of the catechol units on the surface of the crystals under anaerobic and water-free conditions without disrupting the underlying structure of the framework. This approach not only affords the material with improved water stability but also provides control over the function of the protective coating, which enables the development of functional coatings for the adsorption and separations of volatile organic compounds. We are confident that this approach could also be extended to other unstable MOFs featuring open metal sites.
