Abstract
Nowadays, stereoselective control over the sheer variety of chemical transformations benefits from the multipotency of chiral Lewis acids. Their use under biocompatible conditions has long posed a challenge because profuse amounts of biogenic nucleophiles readily deactivate them. To bridge the gap between chiral Lewis acid catalysis and biocompatible chemistry, the conversion of UiO(BPY)-type nanosized metal-organic frameworks (NMOFs) into chiral variants was herein exemplified. The combination of an elongated 2,2'-bipyridyl linker and scandium salt with a hydrophobic anion proved essential to implement traits such as robustness, biocompatibility, and catalytic activity. The catalyst could construct sufficiently hydrophobic environments sequestered within the framework, catalyzing asymmetric ring-opening reactions of meso-epoxide with low catalyst loading to afford β-amino acid alcohols in high yield (up to >99%) with high enantioselectivity (up to 88%). Most impressively, it exhibited a tolerance to the ex vivo poisoning of chiral Lewis acid catalysis by biogenic nucleophiles in sharp contrast to conventional water-compatible Lewis acids.

Abstract
This comprehensive review explores the diverse applications of defective zirconium-based metal-organic frameworks (Zr-MOFs) in energy and environmental remediation. Zr-MOFs have gained significant attention due to their unique properties, and deliberate introduction of defects further enhances their functionality. The review encompasses several areas where defective Zr-MOFs exhibit promise, including environmental remediation, detoxification of chemical warfare agents, photocatalytic energy conversions, and electrochemical applications. Defects play a pivotal role by creating open sites within the framework, facilitating effective adsorption and remediation of pollutants. They also contribute to the catalytic activity of Zr-MOFs, enabling efficient energy conversion processes such as hydrogen production and CO2 reduction. The review underscores the importance of defect manipulation, including control over their distribution and type, to optimize the performance of Zr-MOFs. Through tailored defect engineering and precise selection of functional groups, researchers can enhance the selectivity and efficiency of Zr-MOFs for specific applications. Additionally, pore size manipulation influences the adsorption capacity and transport properties of Zr-MOFs, further expanding their potential in environmental remediation and energy conversion. Defective Zr-MOFs exhibit remarkable stability and synthetic versatility, making them suitable for diverse environmental conditions and allowing for the introduction of missing linkers, cluster defects, or post-synthetic modifications to precisely tailor their properties. Overall, this review highlights the promising prospects of defective Zr-MOFs in addressing energy and environmental challenges, positioning them as versatile tools for sustainable solutions and paving the way for advancements in various sectors toward a cleaner and more sustainable future.

Abstract
Among the important properties of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is stability, which may limit applications, for example, in separations and catalysis. Many MOFs consist of metal oxo cluster nodes connected by carboxylate linkers. Addressing MOF stability, we highlight connections between metal oxo cluster chemistry and MOF node chemistry, including results characterizing Keggin ions and biological clusters. MOF syntheses yield diverse metal oxo cluster node structures, with varying numbers of metal atoms (3-13) and the tendency to form chains. MOF stabilities reflect a balance between the number of node-linker connections and the degree of node hydrolysis. We summarize literature results showing how MOF stability (the temperature of decomposition in air) depends on the degree of hydrolysis/condensation of the node metals, which is correlated to their degree of substitution with linkers. We suggest that this correlation may help guide the discovery of stable new MOFs, and we foresee opportunities for progress in MOF chemistry emerging from progress in metal oxo cluster chemistry.

Abstract
An unprecedented correlation between the catalytic activity of a Zr-based UiO-type metal-organic framework (MOF) and its degree of interpenetration (DOI) is reported. The DOI of an MOF is hard to control owing to the high-energy penalty required to construct a partially interpenetrated structure. Surprisingly, strong interactions between building blocks (inter-ligand hydrogen bonding) facilitate the formation of partially interpenetrated structures under carefully regulated synthesis conditions. Moreover, catalytic conversion rates for cyanosilylation and Knoevenagel condensation reactions are found to be proportional to the DOI of the MOF. Among MOFs with DOIs in the 0-100% range, that with a DOI of 87% is the most catalytically active. Framework interpenetration is known to lower catalytic performance by impeding reactant diffusion. A higher effective reactant concentration due to tight inclusion in the interpenetrated region is possibly responsible for this inverted result.

Abstract
Among the most stable metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are those incorporating nodes that are metal oxide clusters with frames such as Zr6 O8 . This review is a summary of the structure, bonding, and reactivity of MOF node hydroxyl groups, emphasizing those bonded to nodes containing aluminum and zirconium ions. Hydroxyl groups are often present on these nodes, sometimes balancing the charges of the metal ions. They arise during MOF syntheses in aqueous media or in post-synthesis treatments. They are identified with infrared and 1 H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopies and characterized by their reactivities with polar compounds such as alcohols. Terminal OH, paired µ2 -OH, and aqua groups on nodes are catalytic sites in numerous reactions. Relatively unreactive hydroxyl groups (such as isolated µ2 -OH groups) may replace reactive groups and inhibit catalysis; some node hydroxyl groups (e.g., µ3 -OH) are mere spectators in catalysis. There are similarities between MOF node hydroxyl groups and those on the surfaces of bulk metal oxides, zeolites, and enzymes, but the comparisons are mostly inexact, and much remains to be understood about MOF node hydroxyl group chemistry. It is posited that understanding and controlling this chemistry will lead to tailored MOFs and improved adsorbents and catalysts.

Abstract
Exploitation of solid-state proton-conducting materials with high anhydrous proton conductivity from subzero temperature (<273 K) to moderate temperature (>353 K) is a great challenge. Here, Brönsted acid-dopped zirconium-organic xerogels (Zr/BTC-xerogels) are prepared for anhydrous proton conduction from subzero to moderate temperature. Abundant acid sites and strong H-bonding interactions make the CF3SO3H (TMSA)-introduced xerogel gain high proton conductivity from 9.0 × 10-4 S cm-1 (253 K) to 1.40 × 10-2 S cm-1 (363 K) under anhydrous conditions, which are in the leading level. This provides a new possibility to develop wide-operating-temperature conductors.

Abstract
As a key structural parameter, phase depicts the arrangement of atoms in materials. Normally, a nanomaterial exists in its thermodynamically stable crystal phase. With the development of nanotechnology, nanomaterials with unconventional crystal phases, which rarely exist in their bulk counterparts, or amorphous phase have been prepared using carefully controlled reaction conditions. Together these methods are beginning to enable phase engineering of nanomaterials (PEN), i.e., the synthesis of nanomaterials with unconventional phases and the transformation between different phases, to obtain desired properties and functions. This Review summarizes the research progress in the field of PEN. First, we present representative strategies for the direct synthesis of unconventional phases and modulation of phase transformation in diverse kinds of nanomaterials. We cover the synthesis of nanomaterials ranging from metal nanostructures such as Au, Ag, Cu, Pd, and Ru, and their alloys; metal oxides, borides, and carbides; to transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and 2D layered materials. We review synthesis and growth methods ranging from wet-chemical reduction and seed-mediated epitaxial growth to chemical vapor deposition (CVD), high pressure phase transformation, and electron and ion-beam irradiation. After that, we summarize the significant influence of phase on the various properties of unconventional-phase nanomaterials. We also discuss the potential applications of the developed unconventional-phase nanomaterials in different areas including catalysis, electrochemical energy storage (batteries and supercapacitors), solar cells, optoelectronics, and sensing. Finally, we discuss existing challenges and future research directions in PEN.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 236:116752.

Abstract
Antimony contamination of tailings from the mining process remain attracted a great amount of concern. In this study, defective UiO-66-X crystal materials are rationally constructed using trifluoroacetic acid and hydrochloric acid as modulators for the removal of Sb(V) from actual tailing sand leachates. XRD and TG characterizations reveal that the number and kind of defects in UiO-66 are influenced by the type of modulators and the addition of trifluoroacetic acid makes UiO-66-TFA contain both cluster and ligand defects. Adsorption experiments show that UiO-66 and UiO-66-HCl achieve 100% removal of Sb(V) at pH 7.5 of the tailing sand leachate, and up to 90% removal of Sb(V) by the three materials at pH 2.5. It is noteworthy that the removal rate of Sb(V) by UiO-66-HCl is still satisfactory even under strongly acidic conditions at pH 0.5, with good potential for practical applications. Four kinetic models are used to fit the adsorption data and the analysis shows that the mechanism of Sb(V) adsorption by three adsorbent is all pseudo-second order and chemisorption acts as an important role in the adsorption process. In addition, the fixed bed adsorption experiments show that the material exhibit good prospects for practical applications.

Abstract
Metal-organic framework (MOF)-based catalysts are outstanding alternative materials for the chemical transformation of greenhouse and toxic gases into high-add-value products. MOF catalysts exhibit remarkable properties to host different active sites. The combination of catalytic properties of MOFs is mentioned in order to understand their application. Furthermore, the main catalytic reactions, which involve the chemical transformation of CH4, CO2, NOx, fluorinated gases, O3, CO, VOCs, and H2S, are highlighted. The main active centers and reaction conditions for these reactions are presented and discussed to understand the reaction mechanisms. Interestingly, implementing MOF materials as catalysts for toxic gas-phase reactions is a great opportunity to provide new alternatives to enhance the air quality of our planet.

As a common defect-capping ligand in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), the hydroxyl group normally exhibits Brønsted acidity or basicity, but the presence of inherent hydroxyl groups in the MOF structure makes it a great challenge to identify the exact role of defect-capping hydroxyl groups in catalysis. Herein, we used hydroxyl-free MIL-140A as the platform to generate terminal hydroxyl groups on defect sites via a continuous post-synthetic treatment. The structure and acidity of MIL-140A were properly characterized. The hydroxyl-contained MIL-140A-OH exhibited 4.6-fold higher activity than the pristine MIL-140A in methanol dehydration. Spectroscopic and computational investigations demonstrated that the reaction was initiated by the respective adsorption of two methanol molecules on the terminal-OH and the adjacent Zr vacancy. The dehydration of the adsorbed methanol molecules then occurred in the Brønsted-Lewis acid site co-participated associative pathway with the lowest energy barrier.

Abstract
The controlled generation of nitric oxide (NO) from endogenous sources, such as S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO), has significant implications for biomedical implants due to the vasodilatory and other beneficial properties of NO. The water-stable metal-organic framework (MOF) Cu-1,3,5-tris[1H-1,2,3-triazol-5-yl]benzene has been shown to catalyze the production of NO and glutathione disulfide (GSSG) from GSNO in aqueous solution as well as in blood. Previous experimental work provided kinetic data for the catalysis of the 2GSNO → 2NO + GSSG reaction, leading to various proposed mechanisms. Herein, this catalytic process is examined using density functional theory. Minimal functional models of the Cu-MOF cluster and glutathione moieties are established, and three distinct catalytic mechanisms are explored. The most thermodynamically favorable mechanism studied is consistent with prior experimental findings. This mechanism involves coordination of GSNO to copper via sulfur rather than nitrogen and requires a reductive elimination that produces a Cu(I) intermediate, implicating a redox-active copper site. The experimentally observed inhibition of reactivity at high pH values is explained in terms of deprotonation of a triazole linker, which decreases the structural stability of the Cu(I) intermediate. These fundamental mechanistic insights may be generally applicable to other MOF catalysts for NO generation.

Abstract
Heterogeneous noble metal-based catalysts with stable, precise structures and high catalytic performance are of great research interest for sustainable catalysis. In this article, we designed a novel core-shell catalyst, Pd@UiO-66-NH2@mSiO2, with Pd@UiO-66-NH2 as the core and mesoporous SiO2 (mSiO2) as the shell. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) measurement results demonstrated that the obtained catalyst has an excellent core-shell structure. It can significantly prevent the aggregation of Pd nanoparticles (NPs), as well as the leaching of Pd NPs during the reaction process, owing to the protective effect of mSiO2. During the tandem reaction of aniline and benzaldehyde to generate secondary amines, the prepared Pd@UiO-66-NH2@mSiO2 is highly efficient, due to the strong acid sites provided by UiO-66-NH2 and the hydrogenation reduction sites provided by Pd NPs. Meanwhile, the Pd@UiO-66-NH2@mSiO2 with porous structure can also enhance the mass transfer of reactants to improve the reaction efficiency. Additionally, the prepared catalyst was used to catalyze the series reaction of amino compounds and aldehydes, and the results showed that just 5 mg of the catalyst can convert more than 99% of the reactants within 60 minutes in the presence of 1 atm H2 at room temperature. Finally, the selectivity and stability of the as-prepared catalyst were also confirmed.

Abstract
A cyano-bridged heterometallic coordination polymer with partial deficiencies of CN- ligands, [MnII(H2O)8/3]3/2[FeII(CN)5(NH3)], forms open metal sites both on MnII and FeII ions by liberation of monodentate ligands such as NH3 and H2O. [MnII(H2O)8/3]3/2[FeII(CN)5(NH3)] exhibits high catalytic activity and selectivity of benzene oxygenation to phenol in the presence of m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid as an oxidant. The postcatalytic spectroscopy of [MnII(H2O)8/3]3/2[FeII(CN)5(NH3)] and catalysis comparison with a physical mixture of [MnII(H2O)3]2[FeII(CN)6] and [Fe(H2O)3/2]4/3[Fe(CN)6], which has open metal sites on both MnII and Fe ions separately, indicated that the high activity resulted from high oxidation ability and phenol adsorption ability of FeII and MnII ions, respectively.

Abstract
Overoxidation is the principal barrier against commercializing propane oxidative dehydrogenation (PODH) catalysts for propylene production. The current approach to reducing overoxidation, i.e., coating the non-selective support surface with a monolayer of active phase, can itself increase the probability of overoxidation of the produced propylene due to polymerization of active phase species. Incorporating the "confinement agents" onto the metal oxide support might be considered as an alternative solution to prevent hydrocarbons from reaching the support and overoxidizing. Herein, the UiO-66 metal-organic framework, which contains numerous organic ligands connected to the zirconia nodes, was used as support for the vanadia active phase to highlight the role of support's confinement effects on the overall catalytic performance toward the PODH. The UiO-66 supported vanadia catalysts with various vanadium loadings were fabricated via an ultrasonic-assisted wet impregnation procedure. The catalytic function is related to the underlying chemical processes at catalyst surfaces using physicochemical characterization techniques, PODH performance measurements, and machine learning tools. The results showed that the catalyst with a relatively low vanadia density of 2.7 nm-2, equivalent to less than half of the entire support surface coverage, could achieve propylene productivity of 4.43 [Formula: see text] , propane conversion of 17.1%, and propylene selectivity of 49.7% at 350 °C.

Abstract
Although defects are prevalent in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and usually play a crucial role in modulating their performance in various applications, detailed structural characterizations of various defects remain a challenging task mainly due to their disordered, heterogeneous, and local nature. In this work, by using solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (SSNMR) techniques in conjunction with density functional theory (DFT) calculations, it is clearly elucidated that the trimethylphosphine (TMP)-assisted 31P NMR strategy is capable of greatly facilitating the qualitative and quantitative description of the detailed structural and acidic characteristics as well as the evolution process of various Zr defects with subtle distinctions in UiO-66 upon moderate thermal treatment, hence surpassing most conventional analytical techniques. These results offer a fundamental understanding of the defect chemistry in MOFs.

Abstract
The defects in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can dramatically alter their pore structure and chemical properties. However, it has been a great challenge to characterize the molecular structure of defects, especially when the defects are distributed irregularly in the lattice. In this work, we applied a characterization strategy based on solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to assess the chemistry of defects. This strategy takes advantage of the coordination-sensitive phosphorus probe molecules, e.g., trimethylphosphine (TMP) and trimethylphosphine oxide (TMPO), that can distinguish the subtle differences in the acidity of defects. A variety of local chemical environments have been identified in defective and ideal MOF lattices. The geometric dimension of defects can also be evaluated by using the homologs of probe molecules with different sizes. In addition, our method provides a reliable way to quantify the density of defect sites, which comes together with the molecular details of local pore environments. The comprehensive solid-state NMR strategy can be of great value for a better understanding of MOF structures and for guiding the design of MOFs with desired catalytic or adsorption properties. Defects in porous materials can alter the pore structure and chemical properties. Here authors demonstrate an approach for studying defects in metal-organic frameworks using 31P NMR and probe molecules.

Abstract
Defect-rich hcp UiO-66-NO2 was synthesized via mixed linker-induced crystal transformation from fcu UiO-66-NO2/NH2. The defect concentration and porosity of hcp UiO-66-NO2 can be fine-tuned by varying the BDC-NH2/BDC-NO2 ratio, which in turn endowed hcp UiO-66-NO2 with superior catalytic performance in the ring-opening reaction of epoxides with alcohols.

Abstract
Efficient purification of ethylene (C2H4) from ethane (C2H6) is a crucial but daunting task for the chemical industry given their similar physical natures and molecular dimensions. Reversed capture of C2H6 from C2H6/C2H4 dual-mixtures can be expected to directly yield high-purity C2H4 through a one-step separation unit, but it remains a daunting challenge. Here, we skillfully target an unusual "electrostatic-driven linker microrotation" (EDLM) in a Zr-MOF through coupling dual-ligands having electron-withdrawing/donating groups (e.g., F and CH3 motifs). EDLM triggered microrotation of linker geometry and screening sites not only enhanced structural rigidity and hydrophobic nature, etc., but also effectively purified C2H4 through reversely trapping C2H6. Under ambient conditions, 1 kg of activated 2 adsorbents directly produces 7.2 L of C2H4 with over 99.9%+ purity in a single breakthrough operation starting from the equimolar C2H6/C2H4 cracked mixtures. Geometrical models and simulations have revealed that EDLM-derived H-bonding interaction and microrotation of linker geometry, synergistically customized C2H6-selective screening sites and pore inert for reversed C2H6 capture and improved surface hydrophobicity. Adsorption isotherms, modeling simulations, and breakthrough tests based on pressure swing adsorption (PSA) conditions have jointly elucidated the underlying separation properties for C2H4 purification. The enhanced hydrophobic nature, cycling durability, and separation property awarded 2 a new benchmark adsorbent to purify the olefin/paraffin mixtures.

Khudozhitkov AE, Arzumanov SS, Kolokolov DI, Stepanov AG. Butane isomers mobility and framework dynamics in UiO-66 (Zr) MOF: Impact of the hydroxyl groups in zirconia cluster. SOLID STATE NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE 2022; 118:101784. [PMID: 35247850 DOI: 10.1016/j.ssnmr.2022.101784] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2021] [Revised: 02/18/2022] [Accepted: 02/18/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
UiO-66 (Zr) is a metal-organic framework (MOF) known for its thermal and chemical stability and wide range of adsorption-based applications. This MOF exhibits high separation selectivity for butane isomers. It has been earlier inferred that the separation performance of the material depends on the hydroxylation state of the zirconia cluster. In this contribution, we apply 2H solid-state NMR to characterize the dynamics of both the MOF organic framework itself and butane isomers in hydroxylated and dehydroxylated forms of UiO-66. It is established that the rate of π-flipping and the amplitude of the phenylene ring plane librations in the framework are higher for the dehydroxylated form. Self-diffusion coefficients of butane isomers have been estimated for both forms of UiO-66. The diffusivity is higher for n-butane in the dehydroxylated form, whereas the diffusion of isobutane is not affected by the presence of OH groups in the zirconia cluster of the MOF. Higher diffusivity of n-butane in dehydroxylated form is accounted for by the larger effective diameter of the window between the adjacent cages in this form, which arises from faster rotation and larger amplitude of framework linker libration. This rationalizes the higher efficiency of the dehydroxylated form of UiO-66(Zr) material for butane isomers separation.

Abstract
We report a systematic investigation of postsynthetic defect formation in Hofmann-type coordination polymers M(pz)[M'(CN)4] (M = Fe2+, Co2+, Ni2+; M' = Pd2+, Pt2+; pz = pyrazine). These compounds readily undergo selective ligand exchange at the pyrazine site when immersed in methanol (MeOH) at ambient temperature. The ligand exchange changes the chemical formula to M(pz)1-x(MeOH)2x[M'(CN)4] (0 < x < 0.3), affording a defective coordination environment around the M ions. The defect concentration is highly dependent on the combination of the metal ions and solvent species, reaching the defect concentration of ca. 30% (x ∼ 0.3) at maximum. The magnetic state of one such coordination polymer gives an additional control of the defect formation, making the compound less susceptible to the ligand exchange at the low-spin state. Structures that form the defects at a high concentration function as catalysts and promote an acetalization reaction heterogeneously by providing Lewis acidic sites. The solvent-dependent character of the defect formation can be used to control the catalytic activity of the active compounds, demonstrating a facile defect engineering for functionalizing solid materials.

Abstract
Heterogeneous noble metal-based catalysts with stable, precise structures and high catalytic performance are of great research interest for sustainable catalysis. Herein, we designed the novel sandwich-like metal-organic-framework composite nanocatalyst UiO-66-NH2@Pt@mSiO2 using UiO-66-NH2@Pt as the core, and mesoporous SiO2 as the shell. The obtained UiO-66-NH2@Pt@mSiO2 catalyst shows a well-defined structure and interface, and the protection of the mSiO2 shell can efficiently prevent Pt NPs from aggregating and leaching in the reaction process. In the one-pot cascade reaction of nitroarenes and aromatic aldehydes to secondary amines, UiO-66-NH2@Pt@mSiO2 shows excellent catalytic performance due to acid catalytic sites provided by UiO-66-NH2 and Pt hydrogenation catalytic sites. Furthermore, the porous structure of the UiO-66-NH2@Pt@mSiO2 catalyst also enhances reactant diffusion and improves the reaction efficiency. This work provides a new avenue to meticulously design well-defined nanocatalysts with superior catalytic performance and stability for challenging reactions.

Abstract
A defining characteristic of nearly all catalytically functional MOFs is uniform, molecular-scale porosity. MOF pores, linkers and nodes that define them, help regulate reactant and product transport, catalyst siting, catalyst accessibility, catalyst stability, catalyst activity, co-catalyst proximity, composition of the chemical environment at and beyond the catalytic active site, chemical intermediate and transition-state conformations, thermodynamic affinity of molecular guests for MOF interior sites, framework charge and density of charge-compensating ions, pore hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity, pore and channel rigidity vs. flexibility, and other features and properties. Collectively and individually, these properties help define overall catalyst functional behaviour. This review focuses on how porous, catalyst-containing MOFs capitalize on molecular-scale confinement, containment, isolation, environment modulation, energy delivery, and mobility to accomplish desired chemical transformations with potentially superior selectivity or other efficacy, especially in comparison to catalysts in homogeneous solution environments.

Abstract
UiO-66 is regarded as an epitome of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) because of its stability. Defect engineering has been used as a toolbox to alter the performance of MOFs. UiO-66 is among the most widely explored MOFs because of its capability to bear a high number of defects without undergoing structural collapse. Several representative works in the field of MOF-based defect engineering are available based on UiO-66. In this review, more emphasis is given toward the construction of catalytic sites by engineering defects in UiO-66 as a representative including all the detailed synthesis procedures for inducing defects, and the characterization techniques used to analyze these defects in UiO-66 are discussed. Furthermore, a comprehensive review for the defects themselves and the support using defects in catalysis is provided to accentuate the importance of defect engineering.

Abstract
Herein, we establish a method to quantitatively monitor a metal-organic framework (MOF)-catalyzed, biomedically relevant reaction directly in blood plasma, specifically, the generation of nitric oxide (NO) from the endogenous substrate S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) catalyzed by H3[(Cu4Cl)3-(BTTri)8] (CuBTTri). The reaction monitoring method uses UV-vis and 1H NMR spectroscopies along with a nitric oxide analyzer (NOA) to yield the reaction stoichiometry and catalytic rate for GSNO to NO conversion catalyzed by CuBTTri in blood plasma. The results show 100% loss of GSNO within 16 h and production of 1 equiv. of glutathione disulfide (GSSG) per 2 equiv. of GSNO. Only 78 ± 10% recovery of NO(g) was observed, indicating that blood plasma can scavenge the generated NO before it can escape the reaction vessel. Significantly, to best apply and understand reaction systems with biomedical importance, such as NO release catalyzed by CuBTTri, methods to study the reaction directly in biological solvents must be developed.

Abstract
Defect engineering is a valuable tool to tune the properties of metal-organic frameworks. However, defect chemistry remains still predominantly limited to UiO-type MOFs. We describe the preferential formation of missing cluster defects in heterometallic titanium-organic frameworks of the MUV-10 family when synthesised in sub-stoichiometric linker conditions. Our results show the value of integrating experimental work, computational modelling and thorough characterization in rationalizing the impact of defects over the porosity and structure of this family of materials. Correlation of experiment with computational models reveals the dominance of missing cluster vacancies in the pore size distribution of defective MUV-10. These same models were used to investigate the correlation of defects by synchrotron X-ray diffraction. The diffraction at low reflection angles is dominated by diffuse scattering that is indicative of short-range order and cannot be indexed to the defective structural models generated. In addition to the low atomic scattering factor of titanium, these results confirm the need for high-resolution electron microscopy methods for modelling nanoscale disorder in titanium MOFs.

Abstract
There exists a challenge to develop solid-state proton conductors with high conductivity not only at high working temperatures (>353 K) but at start-up temperature and even at subzero temperature (<273 K) in cold climates or high-altitude drones. Here we present a series of zirconium-organic xerogels (Zr/Fum-xerogels) with porosity and defectivity, supported by N2 sorption, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), exhibiting a high anhydrous proton conductivity over the temperature range of 233 to 433 K. The anhydrous conductivity of Zr/Fum-xerogel-0.04 reaches 5.68 × 10-4 (233 K) and 2.5 × 10-2 S cm-1 (433 K), situating in the leading level of all anhydrous conductors reported to date. Further, the defective effects on acidities and conductive mechanisms of xerogels, especially structural changes of water clusters generated by varying temperatures are investigated by ion exchange capacity (IEC), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), temperature programmed desorption of NH3 (NH3-TPD) and in-situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS). The zirconium-organic xerogels with outstanding conducting performance is further implemented as impedance sensor towards formic acid.

Abstract
Alcoholysis of propylene oxide (PO) is achieved over azolate ionic liquids (IL, e.g., 1-hydroxyethyl-3-methyl imidazolium imidazolate) at room temperature, accessing glycol ethers in high yields with excellent selectivity (e.g., >99%). Mechanism investigation indicates that cooperation of hydrogen-bonding of the anion with methanol and that of the cation with PO catalyses the reaction.

Abstract
The catalytic performance of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is related to their physicochemical properties, such as particle size, defect chemistry and porosity, which can be potentially controlled by coordination modulation. By combining PXRD, 1HNMR, FT-IR, and N2 uptake measurements we have gained insights into the control of different types of defects (missing linker or missing cluster consequence of the spatial distribution of missing linkers, and a combination of both) by the type of modulator employed. We show that the molar percent of defects, either as missing linkers or as a part of missing cluster defects, is related to the acidity of a modulator and its subsequent incorporation into the UiO-66 structure. Modulators with strong acidity and small size result in a considerable defect induction that causes an increase in the external surface area and mesopore volume, which is beneficial for the ring-opening of epoxides with amines, using UiO-66 defect-modulated MOFs as heterogeneous catalysts.

Abstract
On metal oxide cluster nodes of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), sites not bonded to linkers (e.g., defects and structural vacancies) control reactivity and catalysis. Attention has been focused on isolated, individual sites, but pair sites have been largely overlooked. We now show that the MOF hcp UiO-66, which incorporates dimeric Zr6O8 nodes bridged by μ2-OH groups, is an excellent platform for identifying and controlling adjacent sites consisting of OH groups and Zr4+ sites, which catalyze tert-butyl alcohol dehydration much more rapidly than isolated single sites.

Abstract
ZrZnOx is active in catalyzing carbon dioxide (CO2) hydrogenation to methanol (MeOH) via a synergy between ZnOx and ZrOx. Here we report the construction of Zn2+-O-Zr4+ sites in a metal-organic framework (MOF) to reveal insights into the structural requirement for MeOH production. The Zn2+-O-Zr4+ sites are obtained by postsynthetic treatment of Zr6(μ3-O)4(μ3-OH)4 nodes of MOF-808 by ZnEt2 and a mild thermal treatment to remove capping ligands and afford exposed metal sites for catalysis. The resultant MOF-808-Zn catalyst exhibits >99% MeOH selectivity in CO2 hydrogenation at 250 °C and a high space-time yield of up to 190.7 mgMeOH gZn-1 h-1. The catalytic activity is stable for at least 100 h. X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) analyses indicate the presence of Zn2+-O-Zr4+ centers instead of ZnmOn clusters. Temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) of hydrogen and H/D exchange tests show the activation of H2 by Zn2+ centers. Open Zr4+ sites are also critical, as Zn2+ centers supported on Zr-based nodes of other MOFs without open Zr4+ sites fail to produce MeOH. TPD of CO2 reveals the importance of bicarbonate decomposition under reaction conditions in generating open Zr4+ sites for CO2 activation. The well-defined local structures of metal-oxo nodes in MOFs provide a unique opportunity to elucidate structural details of bifunctional catalytic centers.

Abstract
The defect concentration in the prototypical metal-organic framework UiO-66 can be well controlled during synthesis, leading to precisely tunable physicochemical properties for this structure. However, there has been a long-standing debate regarding the nature of the compensating species present at the defective sites. Here, we present unambiguous spectroscopic evidence that the missing-linker defect sites in an ambient environment are compensated with both carboxylate and water (bound through intermolecular hydrogen bonding), which is further supported by ab initio calculations. In contrast to the prevailing assumption that the monocarboxylate groups (COO-) of the modulators form bidentate bonding with two Zr4+ sites, COO- is found to coordinate to an open Zr4+ site in an unidentate mode. The neighboring Zr4+ site is terminated by a coordinating H2O molecule, which helps to stabilize the COO- group. This finding not only provides a new understanding of defect termination in UiO-66, but also sheds light on the origin of its catalytic activity.

Abstract
ConspectusMetal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a huge, rapidly growing class of crystalline, porous materials that consist of inorganic nodes linked by organic struts. Offering the advantages of thermal stability combined with high densities of accessible reactive sites, some MOFs are good candidate materials for applications in catalysis and separations. Such MOFs include those with nodes that are metal oxide clusters (e.g., Zr6O8, Hf6O8, and Zr12O22) and long rods (e.g., [Al(OH)]n). These nanostructured metal oxides are often compared with bulk metal oxides, but they are in essence different because their structures are not the same and because the MOFs have a high degree of uniformity, offering the prospect of a deep understanding of reactivity that is barely attainable for most bulk metal oxides because of their surface heterogeneity. This prospect is being realized as it has become evident that adventitious components on MOF node surfaces, besides the linkers, are crucial. These ligands arise from modulators, solvents, or products of solvent decomposition in MOF synthesis solutions, and because they are minor components that are often irregularly placed on defects, they may not show up in X-ray diffraction (XRD) crystal structures. Hydroxyl groups on the nodes (like those on bulk metal oxides) are regarded as native functional groups arising from solvent water, but they may barely be present initially, with common ligands instead being formate and acetate formed from modulators formic acid and acetic acid. (Formate also arises from the decomposition of dimethylformamide (DMF) solvent.) Replacement and control of the node ligands is facilitated by postsynthesis reactions (e.g., with alcohols or aqueous HCl/H2SO4 solutions) or as a result of high-temperature decomposition. In catalysis, adventitious node ligands can be (a) reaction inhibitors that block active sites on the nodes (e.g., formate blocking Zr, Hf, or Al Lewis acid sites); (b) reaction intermediates (e.g., ethoxy in ethanol dehydration); or (c) active sites themselves (e.g., terminal OH groups in tert-butyl alcohol (TBA) dehydration). Surprisingly, in view of the catalytic importance of such ligands on bulk metal oxides, their subtle chemistry on MOF nodes is only recently being determined. We describe (1) methods for identifying and quantifying node ligands (especially by IR spectroscopy and by 1H NMR spectroscopy of MOFs digested in NaOH/D2O solutions); (2) node ligand surface chemistry expressed as reaction networks; (3) catalysis, with mechanisms and energetics determined by density functional theory (DFT) and spectroscopy; and (4) MOF unzipping by reactions of linker carboxylate ligands with reactants such as alcohols that break node-linker bonds, a cause of catalyst deactivation and also an indicator of node-linker bond strength and MOF stability.

Abstract
Engineering structural defects in MOFs has been intensively applied to modulate their adsorption-related properties. Zr-fumarate MOF (also known as MOF-801) is a prototypical defective MOF with proven versatile adsorption/separation performances depending on the synthetic conditions, however the relationship between the nature/concentration of both structure defects/capping functions and its adsorption features is still far from being fully understood. In this work, we first present a systematic theoretical exploration of the individual contributions of linker and cluster defects as well as of the capping functions to the overall water adsorption profile of the MOF-801 framework. This computational effort based on the construction of defective structure models and the use of Grand Canonical Monte Carlo simulations further enabled the identification of the overarching defective structure for two MOF-801 samples based on their experimental adsorption isotherms reported previously. An experimental effort was then deployed to synthesize two Zr-fumarate MOF samples with controlled nature and concentration of structural defects as well as capping functions. This computational-experimental hybrid strategy revealed the water adsorption isotherm as a fingerprint of the nature and concentration of structural defect/capping groups exhibited by the MOF adsorbent. We expect this study to deliver meaningful insights to further design MOFs with target adsorption features through a rational engineering of structural defects.

Abstract
Using ionic liquids (ILs) as linker precursors, the well‐known metal‐organic framework (MOF) UiO‐66 (Universitetet i Oslo) and the recently reported MOF hcp UiO‐66 (hexagonal closed packed) have been successfully synthesized and characterized. The advantage of the applied novel synthesis approach is an economically and environmentally benign work‐up procedure, due to the better solubility of the IL. Additionally, the reactivity of the terephthalate anions is increased compared to terephthalic acid, resulting in faster MOF formation with an increased amount of defects in the MOF structure. In order to explore to the influence of defects on the catalytic performance, the cyclisation of citronellal to isopulegol was employed as test reaction. The activity of hcp UiO‐66 and fcc UiO‐66 (face centered cubic) is improved compared to other MOF or zeolite based catalysts, while the selectivity is similar.

Abstract
CN-deficient Prussian blue analogues (PBAs), [MN(H2O)x]y[FeII(CN)5(NH3)] (MN = CuII, CoII, or GaIII), were synthesized and examined as a new class of heterogeneous catalysts for hydrolytic decomposition of organophosphates often used as pesticides. The active species of the CN-deficient PBAs were mainly C-bound FeII ions with only single open sites generated by liberation of the NH3 ligand during the catalytic reactions. [CuII(H2O)8/3]3/2[FeII(CN)5(NH3)] showed higher catalytic activity than [CoII(H2O)8/3]3/2[FeII(CN)5(NH3)] and [GaIII(H2O)][FeII(CN)5(NH3)], although N-bound CuII species has been reported as less active than CoII and GaIII species in conventional PBAs. IR measurements of a series of the CN-deficient PBAs after the catalytic reactions clarified that a part of the NH3 ligands remained on [CoII(H2O)8/3]3/2[FeII(CN)5(NH3)] and that hydrogen phosphate formed as a product strongly adsorbed on the FeII ions of [GaIII(H2O)][FeII(CN)5(NH3)]. Hydrogen phosphate also adsorbed, but weakly, on the FeII ions of [CuII(H2O)8/3]3/2[FeII(CN)5(NH3)]. These results suggest that heterogeneous catalysis of the FeII ions with single open sites were tuned by the MN ions through metal-metal interaction.

Abstract
Many metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) incorporate nodes that are small metal oxide clusters. Some of these MOFs are stable at high temperatures, offering good prospects as catalysts-prospects that focus attention on their defect sites and reactivities-all part of a broader subject: the surface chemistry of metal oxide clusters, illustrated here for MOF nodes and for polyoxocations and polyoxoanions. Ligands on MOF defect sites form during synthesis and are central to the understanding and control of MOF reactivity. Reactions of alcohols are illustrative probes of Zr6O8 node defects in UiO-66, characterized by the interconversions of formate, methoxy, hydroxy, and linker carboxylate ligands and by catalysis of alcohol dehydration reactions. We posit that new reactivities of MOF nodes will emerge from incorporation of a wide range of groups on their surfaces and from targeted substitutions of metals within them.

Abstract
The metal-organic framework (MOF) H3[(Cu4Cl)3-(BTTri)8, H3BTTri = 1,3,5-tris(1H-1,2,3-triazol-5-yl)benzene] (CuBTTri) is a precatalyst for biomedically relevant nitric oxide (NO) release from S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO). The questions of the number and nature of the catalytically most active, kinetically dominant sites are addressed. Also addressed is whether or not the well-defined structural geometry of MOFs (as solid-state analogues of molecular compounds) can be used to generate specific, testable hypotheses about, for example, if intrapore vs exterior surface metal sites are more catalytically active. Studies of the initial catalytic rate vs CuBTTri particle external surface area to interior volume ratio show that intrapore copper sites are inactive within the experimental error (≤1.7 × 10-5% of the observed catalytic activity)-restated, the traditional MOF intrapore metal site catalysis hypothesis is disproven for the current system. All observed catalysis occurs at exterior surface Cu sites, within the experimental error. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) analysis of CN--poisoned CuBTTri reveals just two detectable Cu sites at a ca. ≥0.5% detection limit, those that bind three or one CN- ("Cu(CN)3" and "CuCN"), corresponding to the CN- binding expected for exterior surface, 3-coordinate (Cusurface) and intrapore, 5-coordinate (Cupore) sites predicted by the idealized, metal-terminated crystal structure. Two-coordinate Cu defect sites are ruled out at the ≥0.5% FT-IR detection limit as such defect sites would have been detectable by the FT-IR studies of the CN--poisoned catalyst. Size-selective poisoning studies of CuBTTri exterior surface sites reveal that 1.3 (±0.4)% of total copper in 0.6 ± 0.4 μm particles is active. That counting of active sites yields a normalized turnover frequency (TOF), TOFnorm = (4.9 ± 1.2) × 10-2 mol NO (mol Cusurface)-1 s-1 (in water, at 20 min, 25 °C, 1 mM GSNO, 30% loss of GSNO, and 1.3 ± 0.4 mol % Cusurface)-a value ∼100× higher than the TOF calculated without active site counting. Overall, Ockham's razor interpretation of the data is that exterior surface, Cusurface sites are the catalytically most active sites present at a 1.3 (±0.4)% level of total Cu.

Abstract
By rigorous control of water, missing-cluster defects in Zr-based UiO-66 were generated to a remarkable extent without the need of acidic modulators. The presence of missing-cluster defects created hierarchical pore structures, which had a profound effect on the catalytic performance.

Abstract
Pd nanoparticles were immobilized on a highly porous, hydrothermally stable Eu-MOF via solution impregnation and H2 reduction to yield a novel Pd@Eu-MOF nanocatalyst. This composite was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Unprecedentedly, the Pd@Eu-MOF nanocatalyst could be applied with excellent results in two strikingly different, mechanistically distinct, reactions i.e., Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling and cycloaddition of CO2 to a range of epoxides. Under the best reaction conditions, 98-99% yields have been attained in both catalytic processes. Moreover, in either case the heterogeneous catalyst was easily recovered and efficiently reused for more than four cycles, indicating its high stability and reproducibility. PXRD, TEM and XPS measurements on the recycled catalyst confirmed that it maintained its original structure and morphology; no Pd NP agglomeration was observed.
