Abstract
In this study, we employed a rapid and efficient microwave method to synthesize Metal-Organic Framework (MOF-303), which was subsequently embedded onto Palladium/Carbon (Pd/C) electrodes. The resulting hybrid material, Pd/C@MOF-303, was thoroughly characterized, and its performance in the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER) was systematically investigated. The Pd/C@MOF-303 composite exhibited remarkable improvements in HER performance compared to the unmodified Pd/C electrode. At a benchmark current density of 10 mA cm-2, the overpotentials for Pd/C and Pd/C@MOF-303 were measured at 185 mV and 175 mV, respectively. This reduction in overpotential highlights the superior catalytic activity of the Pd/C@MOF-303 hybrid material in facilitating the HER. Furthermore, the Pd/C@MOF-303 electrode demonstrated enhanced HER activity, increased mass activity, and excellent charge transfer rates compared to its unmodified counterpart, Pd/C. The findings underscore the significance of the hydrophilic MOF-303 in tailoring the surface characteristics of electrocatalysts, thereby offering insights into the design principles for advanced materials with superior performance in electrochemical applications.

From Simple Palladium(II) Monomers to 2D Heterometallic Sodium-Palladium(II) Coordination Networks with 2-Halonicotinates. ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:4111-4122. [PMID: 38284025 PMCID: PMC10809674 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c09497] [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: 11/28/2023] [Revised: 12/21/2023] [Accepted: 12/25/2023] [Indexed: 01/30/2024]
Abstract
The 2D heterometallic sodium-palladium(II) coordination polymers with 2-halonicotinates [2-chloropyridine-3-carboxylate (2-chloronicotinate), 2-Clnic- and 2-bromopyridine-3-carboxylate (2-bromonicotinate), 2-Brnic-], {[Na2(H2O)2(μ-H2O)4PdCl2(μ-2-Clnic-N:O')2]}n (1), and {[Na2(H2O)2(μ-H2O)4PdBr2(μ-2-Brnic-N:O')2]·2H2O}n (2) were prepared in aqueous solutions under the presence of NaHCO3, while palladium(II) monomers with the neutral 2-chloronicotinic and 2-bromonicotinic acid ligands, [PdCl2(2-ClnicH-N)2]·2DMF (3) and [PdCl2(2-BrnicH-N)2]·2DMF (4), were prepared in DMF/water mixtures (DMF = N,N'-dimethylformamide). The zigzag chains of water-bridged sodium ions are in turn bridged by [PdCl2(2-Clnic)2]2- moieties in 1 or by [PdBr2(2-Brnic)2]2- moieties in 2, leading to the formation of the infinite 2D coordination networks of 1 or 2. The DFT calculations showed the halosubstituents type (Cl vs Br) does not have an influence on the formation of either trans or cis isomers. The trans isomers were found in all reported compounds; being more stable for about 10 to 15 kJ mol-1. The 2D coordination networks 1 and 2 are more stabilized by the formation of Na-Ocarboxylate bonds, comparing to the stabilization of palladium(II) monomers 3 and 4 by hydrogen-bonding with DMF molecules. The difference in DFT calculated energy stabilization for 1 and 2 is ascribed to the type of halosubstituents and to the presence/absence of lattice water molecules in 1 and 2. The compounds show no antibacterial activity toward reference strains of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria and no antiproliferative activity toward bladder (T24) and lung (A549) cancer cell lines.

Abstract
Electrocatalytic water splitting to an anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and a cathodic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is believed to be the most important application for sustainable hydrogen generation. Being a four-electron, four-proton transfer process, the OER plays the main obstacle for the same. Therefore, designing an effective electrocatalyst to minimize the activation energy barrier for the OER is a research topic of prime importance. The metal-organic framework (MOF) with a highly porous network is considered an appropriate candidate for the OER in alkaline conditions. Apart from several MOFs, the bimetallic one has an advantageous electrocatalytic performance due to the synergistic electronic interaction between two metal ions. However, most bimetallic MOFs have an obstacle to electrocatalytic application due to their low conductive nature, and therefore, they possess a barrier for charge transfer kinetics at the interface. Surface functionalization via various nanoparticles (NPs) is believed to be the most effective strategy for nullifying the conductive issue. In this work, we have designed a CoNi-based bimetallic MOF that was surface-functionalized by Au NPs (Au@CoNi-Bpy-BTC) for the OER under alkaline conditions. Au@CoNi-Bpy-BTC required an overpotential of just 330 mV, which is 56 mV lower as compared to the pristine MOF. Impedance analysis confirms an improved conductivity and charge transfer at the interface, where Au@CoNi-Bpy-BTC possesses a lower Rct value than CoNi-Bpy-BTC materials. Moreover, the Au-decorated MOF shows an 8.5 times increase in the TOF value compared to the pristine MOF. Therefore, this noble strategy toward the surface functionalization of MOFs via noble metal NPs is believed to be the most effective strategy for developing effective electrocatalysts for electrocatalytic application in energy-related fields. Overall, this report displays an exceptional correlation between the decorated NPs over the MOF surface, which can regulate the OER activity, as confirmed by experimental analysis.

Abstract
Al-based cationic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are uncommon. Here, we report a cationic Al-MOF, MIP-213(Al) ([Al18(μ2-OH)24(OH2)12(mdip)6]6Cl·6H2O) constructed from flexible tetra-carboxylate ligand (5,5'-Methylenediisophthalic acid; H4mdip). Its crystal structure was determined by the combination of three-dimensional electron diffraction (3DED) and high-resolution powder X-ray diffraction. The structure is built from infinite corner-sharing chains of AlO4(OH)2 and AlO2(OH)3(H2O) octahedra forming an 18-membered rings honeycomb lattice, similar to that of MIL-96(Al), a scarce Al-polycarboxylate defective MOF. Despite sharing these structural similarities, MIP-213(Al), unlike MIL-96(Al), lacks the isolated μ3-oxo-bridged Al-clusters. This leads to an ordered defective cationic framework whose charge is balanced by Cl- sandwiched between two Al-trimers at the corner of the honeycomb, showing strong interaction with terminal H2O coordinated to the Al-trimers. The overall structure is endowed by a narrow quasi-1D channel of dimension ~4.7 Å. The Cl- in the framework restrains the accessibility of the channels, while the MOF selectively adsorbs CO2 over N2 and possesses high hydrolytic stability.

Abstract
HIGHLIGHTS The recent development and implementation of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and MOF-based materials in electrochemical water applications are reviewed. The critical factors that affect the performances of MOFs in the electrochemical reactions, sensing, and separations are highlighted. Advanced tools, such as pair distribution function analysis, are playing critical roles in unraveling the functioning mechanisms, including local structures and nanoconfined interactions. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a family of highly porous materials possessing huge surface areas and feasible chemical tunability, are emerging as critical functional materials to solve the growing challenges associated with energy-water systems, such as water scarcity issues. In this contribution, the roles of MOFs are highlighted in electrochemical-based water applications (i.e., reactions, sensing, and separations), where MOF-based functional materials exhibit outstanding performances in detecting/removing pollutants, recovering resources, and harvesting energies from different water sources. Compared with the pristine MOFs, the efficiency and/or selectivity can be further enhanced via rational structural modulation of MOFs (e.g., partial metal substitution) or integration of MOFs with other functional materials (e.g., metal clusters and reduced graphene oxide). Several key factors/properties that affect the performances of MOF-based materials are also reviewed, including electronic structures, nanoconfined effects, stability, conductivity, and atomic structures. The advancement in the fundamental understanding of these key factors is expected to shed light on the functioning mechanisms of MOFs (e.g., charge transfer pathways and guest-host interactions), which will subsequently accelerate the integration of precisely designed MOFs into electrochemical architectures to achieve highly effective water remediation with optimized selectivity and long-term stability.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as alternative OER catalysts due to their easy regulation, such as in situ self-reconstruction from MOFs to metal hydroxides through alkaline hydrolysis. Herein, we demonstrate a facile strategy for the in situ transformation of FeCo layered double hydroxide (FeCo-LDH) nanosheets into 1D spindle-shaped FeCo-MOFs for efficient OER. An optimized electrode of FeCo-MOF on a nickel foam (NF) was achieved by adjusting the addition of organic ligands and the reaction time in the hydrothermal reaction. Based on the unique 1D nanostructure and the cation regulation, the obtained FeCo-MOF exhibits a good catalytic performance toward the OER with a low overpotential of 475 mV at 100 mA cm-2, a small Tafel slope of 121.8 mV dec-1, and high long-term durability. This study provides a facile strategy for preparing bimetal-MOFs as catalysts for efficient OER.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as classic crystalline porous materials have attracted great interest in the catalytic field. However, how to realize molecular regulation of the MOF structure to achieve a remarkable oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalyst is still a challenge. Herein, we designed several series of special MOF materials to explore the relationship between the structure and properties as well as the related reactive mechanism. First, various metal centers, including Fe, Co, Ni, Zn, and Mg, were utilized to construct the first series of trimetallic MOF materials, namely, M3-MOF-BDC, where BDC = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid, also known as terephthalic acid. Among of them, Fe3-MOF-BDC shows the best OER performance and only needs an overpotential of 312 mV at 10 mA cm-2. Then, functional BDC-X ligands (X = NH2, OH, NO2, DH) with various characteristic groups were selected to construct a new series, namely, Fe3-MOF-BDC-X, to further improve its OER electrocatalytic performance. As expected, Fe3-MOF-BDC-NH2 exhibited a greatly enhanced OER performance with ultralow Tafel slopes of 45 mV dec-1 and overpotentials of 280 mV at 10 mA cm-2 when the BDC-NH2 ligand was adopted, even superior to commercial IrO2 (323 mV) and most of the reported pristine MOFs as OER electrodes. Much higher structural stability was proven. The detailed structure-property relationship and mechanism are discussed. In a word, this work provides a very important theoretical basis for the design and exploration of new MOF electrocatalysts.

Abstract
Electrocatalytic generation of oxygen is of great significance for sustainable, clean, and efficient energy production. Multiple electron transfer in oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and its slow kinetics represent a serious hedge for efficient water splitting, requiring the design and development of advanced electrocatalysts with porous structures, high surface areas, abundant electroactive sites, and low overpotentials. These requisites are common for metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and derived materials that are promising electrocatalysts for OER. The present work reports on the synthesis and full characterization of a heteroleptic 3D MOF, [Zn2(μ4-odba)2(μ-bpdh)]n·nDMF (Zn-MUM-1), assembled from 4,4'-oxydibenzoic acid and 2,5-bis(4-pyridyl)-3,4-diaza-2,4-hexadiene (bpdh). Besides, a series of heterometallic MnZn-MUM-1 frameworks (abbreviated as Mn0.5Zn0.5-MUM-1, Mn0.66Zn0.33-MUM-1, and Mn0.33Zn0.66-MUM-1) was also prepared, characterized, and used for the fabrication of working electrodes based on Ni foam (NF), followed by their exploration in OER. These noble-metal-free and robust electrocatalysts are stable and do not require pyrolysis or calcination while exhibiting better electrocatalytic performance than the parent Zn-MUM-1/NF electrode. The experimental results show that the Mn0.5Zn0.5-MUM-1/NF electrocatalyst features the best OER activity with a low overpotential (253 mV at 10 mA cm-2) and Tafel slope (73 mV dec-1) as well as significant stability after 72 h or 6000 cycles. These excellent results are explained by a synergic effect of two different metals present in the Mn-Zn MOF as well as improved charge and ion transfer, conductivity, and stability characteristics. The present study thus widens the application of heterometallic MOFs as prospective and highly efficient electrocatalysts for OER.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) display promising potential due to their exquisite structural advantages. Carboxylate-based MOFs, such as MIL-53 structures, attract a lot of attention among MOF families because of their remarkable stability in water and even alkaline condition. Hence, the delicate hierarchical microstructure is constructed by introducing MoO42- into NH2-MIL-53(NiFe) using a straightforward solvothermal strategy. The NiFeMo-MOF/NF electrode manifests a superior OER performance, producing an overpotential of 239 mV at 50 mA cm-2 and a decent Tafel slope of 87.0 mV dec-1. Furthermore, in a typical electrodeposition equipment, NiFeMo-MOF/NF is applied as the working electrode and the composite electrode named as (M) Ni-NiOOH/NF is generated by electrodeposition and electrooxidation process to assess HER performance, producing an overpotential of 119 mV at 50 mA cm-2 and a decent Tafel slope of 58.3 mV dec-1. The integrated electrolysis device delivers an extraordinarily low cell voltage of 1.50 V at 10 mA cm-2 while applying NiFeMo-MOF/NF as the anode, (M)Ni-NiOOH/NF as the cathode for overall water splitting, exceeding the noble RuO2/NF||Pt-C/NF (1.60 V@10 mA cm-2). This study provides a promising design strategy for future electrolysis catalysts.

Abstract
A highly effective electrocatalyst is the central component of advanced electrochemical energy conversion. Recently, two-dimensional conjugated metal-organic frameworks (2D c-MOFs) have emerged as a class of promising electrocatalysts because of their advantages including 2D layered structure with high in-plane conjugation, intrinsic electrical conductivity, permanent pores, large surface area, chemical stability, and structural diversity. In this Review, we summarize the recent advances of 2D c-MOF electrocatalysts for electrochemical energy conversion. First, we introduce the chemical design principles and synthetic strategies of the reported 2D c-MOFs, as well as the functional design for the electrocatalysis. Subsequently, we present the representative 2D c-MOF electrocatalysts in various electrochemical reactions, such as hydrogen/oxygen evolution, and reduction reactions of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen. We highlight the strategies for the structural design and property tuning of 2D c-MOF electrocatalysts to boost the catalytic performance, and we offer our perspectives in regard to the challenges to be overcome.

Abstract
Crude oil spills are about global challenges because of their destructive effects on aquatic life and the environment. The conventional technologies for cleaning crude oil spills need to study the selective separation of pollutants. The combination of magnetic materials and porous structures has been of considerable interest in separation studies. Here, γ-Fe2O3/ZIF-7 structures were prepared by growing a ZIF-7 layer onto supermagnetic γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles with an average size of 18 ± 0.9 nm in situ without surface modification at low temperatures. The product composite particles were characterized using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, vibrating sample magnetometry, and N2 adsorption/desorption isotherms. The analyses revealed a time growth-dependent ZIF-7 rod thickness with abundant nanocavities. The γ-Fe2O3/ZIF-7 surface area available for sorption (647 m2/g) is ∼12-fold higher than that of the γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles. Moreover, the crystal structure of γ-Fe2O3 remained essentially unchanged following ZIF-7 coating, whereas the superparamagnetism declined depending on the coating time. The γ-Fe2O3/ZIF-7 particles were highly hydrophobic and selectively and rapidly (<5 min) sorbed crude oil and other hydrocarbon pollutants from water. As high as 6 g/g of the hydrocarbon was sorbed by the γ-Fe2O3/ZIF-7 particles immersed into the hydrocarbon. A coefficient of determination, R 2 2, consistently >0.96 at all pollutant concentrations suggested a pseudo-second-order sorption kinetics. The thermal stability and 15 cycles of use and reuse confirmed a robust γ-Fe2O3/ZIF-7 sorbent.

Abstract
Oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is expected to be of great importance for the future energy conversion and storage in form of hydrogen by water electrolysis. Besides the traditional noble-metal or transition metal oxide-based catalysts, carbonaceous electrocatalysts are of great interest due to their huge structural and compositional variety and unrestricted abundance. This review provides a summary of recent advances in the field of carbon-based OER catalysts ranging from "pure" or unintentionally doped carbon allotropes over heteroatom-doped carbonaceous materials and carbon/transition metal compounds to metal oxide composites where the role of carbon is mainly assigned to be a conductive support. Furthermore, the review discusses the recent developments in the field of ordered carbon framework structures (metal organic framework and covalent organic framework structures) that potentially allow a rational design of heteroatom-doped 3D porous structures with defined composition and spatial arrangement of doping atoms to deepen the understanding on the OER mechanism on carbonaceous structures in the future. Besides introducing the structural and compositional origin of electrochemical activity, the review discusses the mechanism of the catalytic activity of carbonaceous materials, their stability under OER conditions, and potential synergistic effects in combination with metal (or metal oxide) co-catalysts.

Abstract
Hydrogen is a clean and sustainable energy carrier, which is considered a promising alternative for fossil fuels to solve the global energy crisis and respond to climate change. Social concerns on its safe storage promote continuous exploration of alternatives to traditional storage methods. In this case, chemical hydrogen storage materials initiate plentiful research with special attention to the design of heterogeneous catalysts that can enhance efficient and highly selective hydrogen production. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a kind of unique crystalline porous materials featuring highly ordered porosities and tailorable structures, can provide various active sites (i.e., metal nodes, functional linkers, and defects) for heterogeneous catalysis. Furthermore, the easy construction of active sites in highly ordered MOFs, which can work as plate for the delicate active site engineering, make them ideal candidates for a variety of heterogeneous catalysts including chemocatalytic hydrogen production. This review concentrates on the application of MOFs as heterogeneous catalysts or catalyst supports in chemocatalytic hydrogen production. Recent progresses of MOFs as catalysts for chemocatalytic hydrogen production are comprehensively summarized. The research methods, mechanism analyses, and prospects of MOFs in this field are discussed. The challenges in future industrial applications of MOFs as catalysts for hydrogen production are proposed.

Abstract
Electrocatalysts with high active oxygen reduction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activities are key factors in renewable energy technologies. Unlike common strategies for adjusting the proportion of metal centers in a multi-metal organic framework (MOF), herein, we designed and synthesized bifunctional electrocatalysts using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)-capped ultra-low content platinum (Pt) (≤0.5 wt.% Pt) and copper (Cu) nanoparticles and doped on the surface of zinc-based MOF (Zn-MOF-74) and calcinated at 900 °C. According to the electrochemical activity, the Pt/Cu/NPC-900 exhibits superior catalytic activities towards both the ORR with the onset (E0) and half-wave (E1/2) potentials were 1.0 V and 0.89 V versus RHE, respectively, and OER (Eo = 1.48 V versus RHE and overpotential (η) = 0.265 V versus RHE) in an alkaline electrolyte at ambient temperature. Also, Pt/Cu/NPC-900 catalyzes through a 4-electron process and exhibits superior stability. Such insightful findings, as well as a newly developed approach, provides rational design and synthesis of an economical and efficient strategy for bifunctional electrocatalyst development.

Abstract
Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are crystalline materials with permanent porosity, composed of metal nodes and organic linkers whose well-ordered arrangement enables them to act as ideal templates to produce materials with a uniform distribution of heteroatom and metal elements. The hybrid nature of MOFs, well-defined pore structure, large surface area and tunable chemical composition of their precursors, led to the preparation of various MOF-derived porous carbons with controlled structures and compositions bearing some of the unique structural properties of the parent networks. In this regard, an important class of MOFs constructed with porphyrin ligands were described, playing significant roles in the metal distribution within the porous carbon material. The most striking early achievements using porphyrin-based MOF porous carbons are here summarized, including preparation methods and their transformation into materials for electrochemical reactions.

Abstract
Ultrathin two-dimensional metal-organic frameworks (2D MOFs) have recently attracted extensive interest in various catalytic fields (e.g., electrocatalysis, photocatalysis, thermocatalysis) due to their ultrathin thickness, large surface area, abundant accessible unsaturated active sites and tunable surface properties. Besides tuning the intrinsic properties of pristine 2D MOFs by changing the metal nodes and organic ligands, one of the hot research trends is to develop 2D MOF hybrids and 2D MOF-derived materials with higher stability and conductivity in order to further increase their activity and durability. Here, the synthesis of 2D MOF nanosheets is briefly summarized and discussed. More attention is focused on summaries and discussions about the applications of these 2D MOFs, their hybrids and their derived materials as electrocatalysts, photocatalysts and thermocatalysts. The superior properties and catalytic performance of these 2D MOF-based catalysts compared to their 3D MOF counterparts in electrocatalysis, photocatalysis and thermocatalysis are highlighted. The enhanced activities of 2D MOFs, their hybrids and derivatives come from abundant accessible active sites, a high density of unsaturated metal nodes, ultrathin thickness, and tunable microenvironments around the MOFs. Views regarding current and future challenges in the field, and new advances in science and technology to meet these challenges, are also presented. Finally, conclusions and outlooks in this field are provided.

Abstract
Rational design and synthesis of efficient metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as electrode modifiers for energy-related electrocatalytic applications are crucial for the development of clean-energy technologies. The present review focuses on recent work on robust earth-abundant heterogeneous catalysts based on pristine MOFs for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and overall water splitting. These catalysts have been extensively studied as alternatives for noble metal-based ones, demonstrating "hydrogen economy" development prospects. In addition, novel strategies to enhance the conductivity, chemical stability and efficiency of MOF-based electrocatalysts are discussed. The best electrocatalysts even surpass the achievements of the platinum group of metals and MOF-derived catalysts in catalytic performance. The electrolytic cells with MOF-modified electrodes demonstrated excellent catalytic activity and can deliver a high current density at a voltage lower than that using the precious metal-based Pt/C cathodes and IrO2 anodes. In this review article, current approaches to design such MOF and MOF-modified electrode materials are summarized and analyzed.
