Abstract
Metalation of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has been developed as a prominent strategy for materials functionalization for pore chemistry modulation and property optimization. By introducing exotic metal ions/complexes/nanoparticles onto/into the parent framework, many metallized MOFs have exhibited significantly improved performance in a wide range of applications. In this review, we focus on the research progress in the metalation of metal-organic frameworks during the last five years, spanning the design principles, synthetic strategies, and potential applications. Based on the crystal engineering principles, a minor change in the MOF composition through metalation would lead to leveraged variation of properties. This review starts from the general strategies established for the incorporation of metal species within MOFs, followed by the design principles to graft the desired functionality while maintaining the porosity of frameworks. Facile metalation has contributed a great number of bespoke materials with excellent performance, and we summarize their applications in gas adsorption and separation, heterogeneous catalysis, detection and sensing, and energy storage and conversion. The underlying mechanisms are also investigated by state-of-the-art techniques and analyzed for gaining insight into the structure-property relationships, which would in turn facilitate the further development of design principles. Finally, the current challenges and opportunities in MOF metalation have been discussed, and the promising future directions for customizing the next-generation advanced materials have been outlined as well.

Enhanced Photostability and Photoactivity of Ruthenium Polypyridyl-Based Photocatalysts by Covalently Anchoring Onto Reduced Graphene Oxide. ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:13872-13882. [PMID: 38559923 PMCID: PMC10976380 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c08800] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2023] [Revised: 01/19/2024] [Accepted: 02/29/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024]
Abstract
Recentstudies toward finding more efficient ruthenium metalloligands for photocatalysis applications have shown that the derivatives of the linear [Ru(dqp)2]2+ (dqp: 2,6-di(quinolin-8-yl)-pyridine) complexes hold significant promise due to their extended emission lifetime in the μs time scale while retaining comparable redox potential, extinction coefficients, and absorption profile in the visible region to [Ru(bpy)3]2+ (bpy: 2,2'-bipyridine) and [Ru(tpy)2]2+ (tpy: 2,2':6',2″-terpyridine) complexes. Nevertheless, its photostability in aqueous solution needs to be improved for its widespread use in photocatalysis. Carbon-based supports have arisen as potential solutions for improving photostability and photocatalytic activity, yet their effect greatly depends on the interaction of the metal complex with the support. Herein, we present a strategy for obtaining Ru-polypyridyl complexes covalently linked to aminated reduced graphene oxide (rGO) to generate novel materials with long-term photostability and increased photoactivity. Specifically, the hybrid Ru(dqp)@rGO system has shown excellent photostable behavior during 24 h of continual irradiation, with an enhancement of 10 and 15% of photocatalytic dye degradation in comparison with [Ru(dqp)2]2+ and Ru(tpy)@rGO, respectively, as well as remarkable recyclability. The presented strategy corroborates the potential of [Ru(dqp)2]2+ as an interesting photoactive molecule to produce more advantageous light-active materials by covalent attachment onto carbon-based supports.

Abstract
Initially proposed by Lovric and Scholz to explain redox reactions in solid-phase voltammetry, the Scholz model's applications have expanded to redox reactions in various materials. As an extension of the Cottrell equation, the Scholz model enabled the quantification of electron hopping and ion diffusion with coefficients, De and Di, respectively. Research utilizing the Scholz model indicated that, in most cases, a huge bottleneck results from the ion diffusion which is slower than electron hopping by orders of magnitude. Therefore, electron and ion motion can be tuned and optimized to increase the charge transport and conductivity through systematic investigations guided by the Scholz model. The strategy may be extended to other solid-state materials in the future, e.g., battery anodes/cathodes. In this Perspective, the applications of the Scholz model in different materials will be discussed. Moreover, the limitations of the Scholz model will also be introduced, and viable solutions to those limitations discussed.

Abstract
Photocatalytic organic reactions, harvesting solar energy to produce high value-added organic chemicals, have attracted increasing attention as a sustainable approach to address the global energy crisis and environmental issues. Reticular framework materials, including metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs), are widely considered as promising candidates for photocatalysis owing to their high crystallinity, tailorable pore environment and extensive structural diversity. Although the design and synthesis of MOFs and COFs have been intensively developed in the last 20 years, their applications in photocatalytic organic transformations are still in the preliminary stage, making their systematic summary necessary. Thus, this review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding and useful guidelines for the exploration of suitable MOF and COF photocatalysts towards appropriate photocatalytic organic reactions. The commonly used reactions are categorized to facilitate the identification of suitable reaction types. From a practical viewpoint, the fundamentals of experimental design, including active species, performance evaluation and external reaction conditions, are discussed in detail for easy experimentation. Furthermore, the latest advances in photocatalytic organic reactions of MOFs and COFs, including their composites, are comprehensively summarized according to the actual active sites, together with the discussion of their structure-property relationship. We believe that this study will be helpful for researchers to design novel reticular framework photocatalysts for various organic synthetic applications.

Abstract
Postsynthetic modification (PSM) of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) enables incorporation of diverse functionalities in pores for chemical separations, drug delivery, and heterogeneous catalysis. However, the effect of PSM on molecular transport, which is essential for most applications of MOFs, has been rarely studied. In this paper, we used perfluoroalkane-functionalized Zr-MOF NU-1008 as a platform to systematically interrogate transport processes and mechanisms in solvated pores. We anchored perfluoroalkanes onto NU-1008 nodes by solvent-assisted ligand incorporation (SALI-n, with n = 3, 5, 7, and 9 denoting the number of fluorinated carbons). Transport of a luminescent molecule, BODIPY, through individual crystallites of four versions of methanol-filled SALI-n was monitored by confocal fluorescence microscopy as a function of time and location. In comparison with the parent NU-1008, the diffusivity of the probe molecules within SALI-n declined by 2- to 7-fold depending on chain length and loading, presumably due to the reduction in pore diameter or adsorptive interactions with perfluoroalkyl chains. Atomistic simulations were performed to uncover the microscopic behavior of the BODIPY diffusion in SALI-n. The perfluoroalkyl chains are observed to stay close to the pore walls, instead of extending toward the pore center. BODIPY molecules, which preferably interact with linkers, were pushed to the interior of the channels as the chain length increased, resulting in solvated diffusion and minor differences in the short-time mobility of BODIPY in SALI-n. This suggested that the observed decline of transport diffusivity in SALI-n mainly stemmed from the reduction in the pore size when these flexible chains are present. We anticipate that this proof of concept will assist in understanding how pore functionalization can physically and chemically affect mass transport in MOFs and will be useful in further guiding the design of PSM to realize the optimal performance of MOFs for various applications.

Abstract
Cooperative behavior and orthogonal responses of two classes of coordinatively integrated photochromic molecules towards distinct external stimuli were demonstrated on the first example of a photo-thermo-responsive hierarchical platform. Synergetic and orthogonal responses to temperature and excitation wavelength are achieved by confining the stimuli-responsive moieties within a metal-organic framework (MOF), leading to the preparation of a novel photo-thermo-responsive spiropyran-diarylethene based material. Synergistic behavior of two photoswitches enables the study of stimuli-responsive resonance energy transfer as well as control of the photoinduced charge transfer processes, milestones required to advance optoelectronics development. Spectroscopic studies in combination with theoretical modeling revealed a nonlinear effect on the material electronic structure arising from the coordinative integration of photoresponsive molecules with distinct photoisomerization mechanisms. Thus, the reported work covers multivariable facets of not only fundamental aspects of photoswitch cooperativity, but also provides a pathway to modulate photophysics and electronics of multidimensional functional materials exhibiting thermo-photochromism.

Abstract
Syngas, a mixture of CO and H2 , is a high-priority intermediate for producing several commodity chemicals, e.g., ammonia, methanol, and synthetic hydrocarbon fuels. Accordingly, parallel sunlight-driven catalytic conversion of CO2 and protons to syngas is a key step toward a sustainable energy cycle. State-of-the-art catalytic systems and materials often fall short as application-oriented concurrent CO and H2 evolution requires challenging reaction conditions which can hamper stability, selectivity, and efficiency. Here a light-harvesting metal-organic framework hosting two molecular catalysts is engineered to yield colloidal, water-stable, versatile nanoreactors for photocatalytic syngas generation with highly controllable product ratios. In-depth fluorescence, X-ray, and microscopic studies paired with kinetic analysis show that the host delivers energy efficiently to active sites, conceptually yielding nanozymes. This unlocked sustained CO2 reduction and H2 evolution with benchmark turnover numbers and record incident photon conversions up to 36%, showcasing a highly active and durable all-in-one material toward application in solar energy-driven syngas generation.

Abstract
Cooperative metal-photoswitch interfaces comprise an application-driven field which is based on strategic coupling of metal cations and organic photochromic molecules to advance the behavior of both components, resulting in dynamic molecular and material properties controlled through external stimuli. In this Perspective, we highlight the ways in which metal-photoswitch interplay can be utilized as a tool to modulate a system's physicochemical properties and performance in a variety of structural motifs, including discrete molecular complexes or cages, as well as periodic structures such as metal-organic frameworks. This Perspective starts with photochromic molecular complexes as the smallest subunit in which metal-photoswitch interactions can occur, and progresses toward functional materials. In particular, we explore the role of the metal-photoswitch relationship for gaining fundamental knowledge of switchable electronic and magnetic properties, as well as in the design of stimuli-responsive sensors, optically gated memory devices, catalysts, and photodynamic therapeutic agents. The abundance of stimuli-responsive systems in the natural world only foreshadows the creative directions that will uncover the full potential of metal-photoswitch interactions in the coming years.

Abstract
As a type of heterogeneous catalyst expected for the maximum atom efficiency, a series of single-atom catalysts (SACs) containing spatially isolated metal single atoms (M-SAs) have been successfully prepared by confining M-SAs in the pore-nanospaces of porphyrinic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). The prepared MOF composites of M-SAs@Pd-PCN-222-NH2 (M = Pt, Ir, Au, and Ru) display exceptionally high and persistent efficiency in the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction with a turnover number (TON) of up to 21713 in 32 h and a beginning/lasting turnover frequency (TOF) larger than 1200/600 h-1 based on M-SAs under visible light irradiation (λ ≥ 420 nm). The photo-/electrochemical property studies and density functional theory calculations disclose that the close proximity of the catalytically active Pt-SAs to the Pd-porphyrin photosensitizers with the confinement and stabilization effect by chemical binding could accelerate electron-hole separation and charge transfer in pore-nanospaces, thus promoting the catalytic H2 evolution reaction with lasting effectiveness.

Abstract
Porphyrins and phthalocyanines are ideal candidates for the development of photoactive porous metal organic frameworks (MOFs) due to their broad absorption spectra in the visible and near UV regions, high molar extinction coefficients and long triplet state lifetimes. An important factor in the development of porphyrin/phthalocyanine based MOFs is the extent to which the pore modulates the photophysical properties of the guest. Here, two structurally related guests, Zn(II)tetra(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin (Zn4SP) and Zn(II)phthalocyanine tetrasulfonate (ZnPcS4) have been encapsulated within the pores of the MOF HKUST-1(Zn). Both the ZnPcS4@HKUST-1(Zn) and Zn4SP@HKUST-1(Zn) display bathochromic shifts in the Soret absorption band and steady state emission spectra as well as biphasic emissions lifetimes, relative to the chromophores in solution. These results are consistent with the pore modulating the excited state conformations of both chromophores. Interestingly, rotational control of the phenyl groups associated with Zn4SP@HKUST-1(Zn) appears to have a moderate impact on the photophysics.

Abstract
AbstractIn this work, a functionalized gallium metal–organic framework with active dioxo-molybdenum (VI) centers was evaluated as a catalyst in the epoxidation of soybean oil using tert-butyl-hydroperoxide as an oxidizing agent. The influence of the reaction time, temperature, and concentration of the oxidizing agent was studied, and it was demonstrated that the highest epoxide selectivity was obtained at 110 °C after 4 h of reaction (29% conversion and 91% selectivity) using a soybean oil/oxidizing agent ratio of 1/2. The stability of the metal–organic framework was confirmed by infrared spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy EDS. The stability tests demonstrated that the catalyst could be reused in the catalytic process for the recovery of vegetable oils.

Abstract
Electronic charge transport through crystalline metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can be accomplished by site-to-site electron (or hole) hopping, provided that redox-active sites, such as easily reducible or oxidizable MOF linkers, are present. If the framework itself is redox-inert, solvent-assisted ligand incorporation of redox-active moieties can serve to enable hopping-based charge transport. Here we have studied the redox hopping process within Ru-bpy@NU-1008, where Ru-bpy is a carboxylate-functionalized derivative, i.e., a node-ligating derivative, of the well-known chromophore Ru(2,2′-bipyridine)32+, and NU-1008 is a redox-inert MOF featuring hierarchical porosity and csq topology. Chronoamperometry experiments with electrode-supported thin films of Ru-bpy@NU-1008 show that charge transport is feasible through portions of the MOF, with other portions being inaccessible. Possible confounding features are the undersized c-pores that cross-connect 1D mesoporous channels, as ingress and egress of charge-compensating anions is believed to accompany the net oxidation of Ru(II) to Ru(III) and the reduction of Ru(III) to Ru(II). Phenomenologically, transport through the electroactive portion of the films is diffusion-like, with the magnitude of the apparent diffusion coefficient being 6 × 10−12 cm2/s.

Abstract
Solvent-assisted ligand incorporation (SALI) of the ditopic linker 5-carboxy-3-(4-carboxybenzyl)thiazolium bromide [(H2PhTz)Br] into the zirconium metal-organic framework NU-1000 [Zr6O4(OH)8(H2O)4(TBAPy)2, where NU = Northwestern University and H4TBAPy = 1,3,6,8-tetrakis(p-benzoic-acid)pyrene], led to the SALIed NU-1000-PhTz material of minimal formula [Zr6O4(OH)6(H2O)2(TBAPy)2(PhTz)]Br. NU-1000-PhTz has been thoroughly characterized in the solid state. As confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction, this material keeps the same three-dimensional architecture of NU-1000 and the dicarboxylic extra linker bridges adjacent [Zr6] nodes ca. 8 Å far apart along the crystallographic c-axis. The functionalized MOF has a BET specific surface area of 1560 m2/g, and it is featured by a slightly higher thermal stability than its parent material (Tdec = 820 vs. 800 K, respectively). NU-1000-PhTz has been exploited for the capture and separation of two pollutant gases: carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrous oxide (N2O). The high thermodynamic affinity for both gases [isosteric heat of adsorption (Qst) = 25 and 27 kJ mol-1 for CO2 and N2O, respectively] reasonably stems from the strong interactions between these (polar) "stick-like" molecules and the ionic framework. Intriguingly, NU-1000-PhTz shows an unprecedented temperature-dependent adsorption capacity, loading more N2O in the 298 K ≤ T ≤ 313 K range but more CO2 at temperatures falling out of this range. Grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations of the adsorption isotherms confirmed that the preferential adsorption sites of both gases are the triangular channels (micropores) in close proximity to the polar pillar. While CO2 interacts with the thiazolium ring in an "end-on" fashion through its O atoms, N2O adopts a "side-on" configuration through its three atoms simultaneously. These findings open new horizons in the discovery of functional materials that may discriminate between polluting gases through selective adsorption at different temperatures.
