Pu ZF, Wen QL, Wu BC, Li CH, Li RS, Ling J, Cao Q. Synthesis of shape-controlled covalent organic frameworks for light scattering detection of iron and chromium ions. Talanta 2024; 279:126682. [PMID: 39116734 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126682] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2024] [Revised: 07/25/2024] [Accepted: 08/05/2024] [Indexed: 08/10/2024]
Abstract
Fabricating covalent organic frameworks with different morphologies based on the same structural motifs is both interesting and challenging. Here, a TTA-TFP-COF was synthesized by both solvothermal and room temperature methods, with 2,4,6-Tris(4-aminophenyl)-1,3,5-triazine (TTA) and 1,3,5-tris(4-formylphenyl)-benzene (TFP) as raw material. Using different synthesis conditions and adding aniline and benzaldehyde as regulators in the synthesis process, we found that these processes could slow down the reaction speed, increase the exchange and metathesis reactions of dynamic reversible reactions, and improve the reversibility of the reaction system. Thus, controllable synthesis of TTA-TFP-COF with different morphologies, including micro-particles, hollow tubes with controllable diameters, and micro-flowers was achieved. Our further study found that metal ions, Fe3+ and Cr3+ ions, could coordinate with N and O in TTA-TFP-COF and partially destroy the structure of TTA-TFP-COF. The particle size of the TTA-TFP-COF became smaller, thus resulting in the decrease of the light scattering intensity of the COF. An excellent linear relationship exists between the light scattering changes (ΔI) and metal ions concentration (c) from 2.0 to 350.0 μM for Fe3+ and 40.0-800.0 μM for Cr3+, respectively. Thus, rapid and selective analytical methods for detecting metal ions were developed by TTA-TFP-COF here.

Abstract
Here, NiFe2O4, MnFe2O4, and CoFe2O4 nanoferrites are prepared by coprecipitation synthesis technique from nickel, manganese, and cobalt chloride precursors. Synthesized nanoferrites are annealed by calcination process at 800°C for 2 h. To produce a novel anode electrode material for asymmetric supercapacitors (ASCs), the composite material of GO/NiFe2O4-MnFe2O4-CoFe2O4 is fabricated. Physicochemical aspects of the synthesized nanoferrites are evaluated. X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy tests are conducted, respectively. The electrochemical activities are studied by cyclic voltammetry, glavanostatic charge-discharge, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in 2 M KOH as the electrolyte. In three electrode system, the novel GO/NiFe2O4-MnFe2O4-CoFe2O4 electrode displays a high specific capacity of 325 C g-1 and preserves about 99.9% of its initial specific capacity. The GO/NiFe2O4-MnFe2O4-CoFe2O4//GO ASCs device is assembled using GO/NiFe2O4-MnFe2O4-CoFe2O4, GO, and 2 M KOH solution as the positive electrode, negative electrode, and electrolyte, respectively. Significantly, the GO/NiFe2O4-MnFe2O4-CoFe2O4//GO ASCs represent an outstanding energy density of 50.5 W h kg-1 at power density of 2560 W kg-1. Through the long-term charge discharge cycling tests, this ASC device illustrates about 93.7% capacity retention after 3000 cycles. Then, the present study provides the NiFe2O4-MnFe2O4-CoFe2O4 composite nanoferrites as a novel favorable candidate for anode material.

Abstract
Bandgap is a key property that determines electrical and optical properties in materials. Modulating the bandgap thus is critical in developing novel materials particularly semiconductors with improved features. This study examines the bandgap, highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO), and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy level trends in a metal organic framework, metal-organic framework 5 (MOF-5), as a function of Hammett substituent effect (with the constant σm in the meta-position of the benzene ring) and solvent dielectric effect (with the constant ε). Specifically, experimental design and response surface methodologies helped to assess the significance of trends and correlations between these molecular properties with σm and ε. While the HOMO and LUMO decrease with increasing σm, the LUMO exhibits greater sensitivity to the substituent's electron withdrawing capability. The relative difference in these trends helps to explain why the bandgap tends to decrease with increasing σm.

Abstract
Dimetridazole (DMZ) is a broad-spectrum antibiotic effective against bacterial and protozoan infections in humans and poultry farms. However, excessive DMZ intake leads to harmful effects. Thus, minimizing its environmental presence is crucial for sustaining daily life. This study presents an innovative approach to construct flower-like SnS particle decorations on a nickel metal-organic framework (Ni-MOF@SnS) as an electrocatalyst for DMZ detection. The Ni-MOF@SnS/GCE sensor exhibits exceptional electrocatalytic behavior, including a significantly reduced detection limit of 1.6 nM, extensive linear ranges from 0.01 μM to 60 μM and from 60 μM to 231 μM at lower and higher DMZ concentrations, respectively. It also shows enhanced sensitivity (0.139 μA μM-1 cm-2) and remarkable selectivity for DMZ detection using differential-pulse voltammetry (DPV). Furthermore, the proposed sensor demonstrates good recovery results with actual food samples.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of porous materials that have been gradually applied in the field of supercapacitors, but they still present major challenges due to their inherent instability and poor conductivity. Herein, in order to solve these problems, Ni-based MOFs and their derivative materials with a particular spherical structure were prepared using a special calcination method. This unique structure not only improves the conductivity of the electrode, but also promotes the transport of electrons and ions during the electrochemical energy storage process. The as-prepared Ni-MOF@M-a4 has an amazing specific capacitance (637.78 F g-1) and a relatively low impedance. The fabricated asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) consisted of Ni-MOF@M-a4 and activated carbon (AC) as positive and negative electrodes, respectively. The specific capacitance of this ASC was 18.14 F g-1. The maximum energy and power densities of the device reached 1.23 W h kg-1 and 175.00 W kg-1, showing good electrochemical performance. In this work, both an innovative strategy for the rational preparation of MOF arrays with good orientation and a special material preparation method are proposed, which have promising application potential in the field of asymmetric supercapacitors.

Abstract
This study unveils the "green" metal-organic framework (MOF) structuring mechanism by decoding proton transfer in water during ZIF-8 synthesis. Combining in situ small- to wide-angle X-ray scattering, multiscale simulations, and quantum calculations, we reveal that the ZIF-8 early-stage nucleation and crystallization process in aqueous solution unfolds in three distinct stages. In stage I, imidazole ligands replace water in zinc-water cages, triggering an "acidity flip" that promotes proton transfer. This leads to the assembly of structures from single zinc ions to 3D amorphous cluster nuclei. In stage II, amorphous nuclei undergo a critical transformation, evolving into crystalline nuclei and subsequently forming mesoscale-ordered structures and crystallites. The process proceeds until the amorphous precursors are completely consumed, with the transformation kinetics governed by an energy barrier that determines the rate-limiting step. In stage III, stable crystallite nanoparticles form in solution, characterized by a temperature-dependent thermal equilibrium of molecular interactions at the crystal-solution interface. Beyond these core advancements, we explore the influence of encapsulated pepsin and nonencapsulated lysozyme on ZIF-8 formation, finding that their amino acid proton transfer capacity and concentration influence the resulting biomolecule-MOF composite's shape and encapsulation efficiency. The findings contribute to understanding the molecular mechanisms behind biomimetic mineralization and have potential implications for engineering proteins within amorphous MOF nuclei as protein embryo growth sites.

Abstract
The development of novel metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as efficient photocatalysts for hydrogen peroxide production from water and oxygen is particularly interesting, yet remains a challenge. Herein, we have prepared four cyclic trinuclear units (CTUs) based MOFs, exhibiting good light absorption ability and suitable band gaps for photosynthesis of H2O2. However, Cu-CTU-based MOFs are not able to photocatalyzed the formation of H2O2, while the alteration of metal nodes from Cu-CTU to Ag-CTU dramatically enhances the photocatalytic performance for H2O2 production and the production rates can reach as high as 17476 μmol g-1 h-1 with an apparent quantum yield of 4.72 %, at 420 nm, which is much higher than most reported MOFs. The photocatalytic mechanism is comprehensively studied by combining the isotope labeling experiments and DFT calculation. This study provides new insights into the preparation of MOF photocatalysts with high activity for H2O2 production through molecular engineering.

Abstract
The accumulation of uremic toxins in the human body poses a deadly risk because it causes chronic kidney disease. To increase the effectiveness of hemodialysis and raise the survival rate, these toxins must be effectively removed from the bloodstream. Developing effective materials for removing these dangerous substances requires a thorough understanding of the interactions between an adsorbent and the uremic toxins. Thankfully, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have shown considerable promise for the identification and treatment of kidney disorders. Herein, cotton gauze fabrics (CGF) were carboxylated using monochloroacetic acid to produce carboxymethylated cotton gauze fabrics (CM-CGF). CM-CGF was subsequently decorated in situ with zeolitic imidazolate framework-67, resulting in carboxymethylated cotton gauze fabrics-zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (CM-CGF-ZIF). The CGF, CM-CGF, and CM-CGF-ZIF were evaluated for potential kidney applications by removing uric acid and creatinine from mimic blood. The results showed that CM-CGF-ZIF had the highest adsorption of uric acid and creatinine. The maximum adsorption capacity of uric acid and creatinine was 164 and 222 mg/g for CM-CGF-ZIF, respectively, compared to 45 and 67 mg/g for CGF. CM-CGF-ZIF showed excellent antibacterial activity, good antifungal activity, low cytotoxicity, and a satisfactory level of blood compatibility.

Beglau THY, Fei Y, Janiak C. Microwave-Assisted Ultrafast Synthesis of Bimetallic Nickel-Cobalt Metal-Organic Frameworks for Application in the Oxygen Evolution Reaction. Chemistry 2024; 30:e202401644. [PMID: 38869378 DOI: 10.1002/chem.202401644] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2024] [Revised: 06/13/2024] [Accepted: 06/13/2024] [Indexed: 06/14/2024]
Abstract
Herein, a series of monometallic Ni-, Co- and Zn-MOFs and bimetallic NiCo-, NiZn- and CoZn-MOFs of formula M2(BDC)2DABCO and (M,M')2(BDC)2DABCO, respectively, (M, M'=metal) with the same pillar and layer linkers 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) and benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate (BDC) were prepared through a fast microwave-assisted thermal conversion synthesis method (MW) within only 12 min. In the bimetallic MOFs the ratio M:M' was 4 : 1. The mono- and bimetallic MOFs were selected to systematically explore the catalytic-activity of their derived metal oxide/hydroxides for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Among all tested bimetallic MOF-derived catalysts, the NiCoMOF exhibits superior catalytic activity for the OER with the lowest overpotentials of 301 mV and Tafel slopes of 42 mV dec-1 on a rotating disk glassy carbon electrode (RD-GCE) in 1 mol L-1 KOH electrolyte at a current density of 10 mA cm-2. In addition, NiCoMOF was insitu grown in just 25 min by the MW synthesis on the surface of nickel foam (NF) with, for example, a mass loading of 16.6 mgMOF/gNF, where overpotentials of 313 and 328 mV at current densities of 50 and 300 mA cm-2, respectively, were delivered and superior long-term stability for practical OER application. The low Tafel slope of 27 mV dec-1, as well as a low reaction resistance from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurement (Rfar=2 Ω), confirm the excellent OER performance of this NiCoMOF/NF composite. During the electrocatalytic processes or even before upon KOH pre-treatment, the MOFs are transformed to the mixed-metal hydroxide phase α-/β-M(OH)2 which presents the active species in the reactions (turnover frequency TOF=0.252 s-1 at an overpotential of 320 mV). Compared to the TOF from β-M(OH)2 (0.002 s-1), our study demonstrates that a bimetallic MOF improves the electrocatalytic performance of the derived catalyst by giving an intimate and uniform mixture of the involved metals at the nanoscale.

Abstract
Developing a reliable method for constructing mesoporous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with single-crystalline forms remains a challenging task despite numerous efforts. This study presents a solvent-mediated assembly method for fabricating zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) single-crystal nanoparticles with a well-defined micro-mesoporous structure using polystyrene-block-poly(ethylene oxide) diblock copolymer micelles as a soft-template. The precise control of particle sizes, ranging from 85 to 1200 nm, is achieved by regulating nucleation and crystal growth rates while maintaining consistent pore diameters in mesoporous nanoparticles and a rhombohedral dodecahedron morphology. Furthermore, this study presents a robust platform for nanoarchitecturing to prepare hierarchically porous materials (e.g., core-shell and hollow structures), including microporous ZIF@mesoporous ZIF, hollow mesoporous ZIF, and mesoporous ZIF@mesoporous ZIF. Such a multimodal pore design, ranging from microporous to microporous/mesoporous and further micro-/meso-/macroporous, provides significant evidence for the future possibility of the structural design of MOFs.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising porous materials that have huge potential for gas separation when put in the membrane configuration. MOFs have huge potential due to certain salient features of the MOFs such as excellent pore size, ease of tuning the pore chemistry, higher surface area, and chemical and thermal stabilities. MOFs have been explored for various gas separation and storage applications. This review discusses various approaches for fabricating MOFs-based membranes for the separation of H2 gas from a variety of feeds having various gases CO2, CO, N2, and CH4 as impurities. The emphasis has been put on three types of membranes for H2 separation which include MOFs-based hollow fibrous/tubular/disk membranes, MOFs-based mixed matrix membranes (MMMs), and MOFs-based stand-alone membranes. In addition, various challenges such as reducing inhomogeneity between MOFs and polymeric matrices have also been discussed. Similarly, the approaches to successfully decorating MOFs on different supports in different configurations have been explained. The possible ways of improving the MOFs-based membranes for H2 have also been discussed.

Abstract
As one of the seldom explored systems, molybdenum-based metal-organic frameworks (Mo-MOFs) with different ligands such as terephthalic acid (Mo-TA), 2-aminoterephthalic acid (Mo-ATA), benzenetricarboxylic acid (Mo-BTC), 2-methylimidazole (Mo-2MI), 2-bipyridine (Mo-2bpy), and 4-bipyridine (Mo-4bpy) were developed in this study. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman, and attenuated total reflectance-infrared (ATR-IR) analyses confirmed the ligand-dependent crystal structure of the Mo-MOFs along with the characteristic functional groups present in the respective systems. Interestingly, the morphology of all of these the developed Mo-MOFs was found to be a one-dimensional rod-like structure, which was attributed to the binding nature of the ligands onto the growing Mo-frameworks. Optical analysis indicated that all these Mo-MOFs exhibit ultraviolet (UV) light absorption properties with band gap energy in the range of 3.47-3.03 eV. Among the various Mo-MOFs developed, Mo-4bpy MOF degraded a maximum of ∼76 and 62% of malachite green and Congo red dyes, respectively, under sunlight irradiation. The observed improved photocatalytic efficiency of Mo-4bpy MOF was attributed to its appropriate band edge potential, confirmed by Mott-Schottky analysis, improved carrier lifetime (∼34.6 ns) estimated using the time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) spectrum, presence of elements with stable oxidation states in the system confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), improved charge transfer characteristics, and decreased recombination resistance, as confirmed by impedance and PL analyses, respectively. The degradation of Mo-4bpy MOFs mediated by superoxide (•O2-) and hydroxyl radicals (OH•) was further confirmed by scavenger studies. Cyclic studies performed for up to 5 cycles suggested that the degradation efficiency of the Mo-4bpy MOF was stable, attributed to its excellent structural, optical, and morphological features confirmed via postcharacterization of the recycled photocatalyst.

Abstract
Passive radiative cooling represents a transformative approach to achieving sustainable cooling on Earth without relying on energy consumption. In this research, the optical characteristics of five readily accessible metal-organic frameworks (MOFs): ZIF-67(Co), MOF-74(Ni), HKUST-1(Cu), MOF-801(Zr), and UiO-66(Zr) are meticulously explored. The objective is to identify the pivotal factors that influence their ability to facilitate radiative cooling. Through an in-depth analysis encompassing spectroscopic features, surface texture, and porosity, it is found that the MOFs' cooling efficacy is largely influenced by their optical bandgaps and functional groups, although other factors like chemical composition and structural characteristics remain to be considered. Notably, UiO-66(Zr) emerged as the standout performer, boasting an impressive solar reflectance of 91% and a mid-infrared emissivity of 96.8%. Remarkably, a fabric treated with UiO-66(Zr) achieved a substantial sub-ambient cooling effect, lowering temperatures by up to 5 °C and delivering a cooling power of 26 W m-2 at 300 K. The findings underscore the vast potential of MOFs in offering new opportunities to advance passive radiative cooling technologies, paving the way for their extensive application in this field.

Abstract
Supramolecular assembly frameworks (SAFs) represent a new category of porous materials, utilizing non-covalent interactions, setting them apart from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs). This category includes but is not restricted to hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks and supramolecular organic frameworks. SAFs stand out for their outstanding porosity, crystallinity, and stability, alongside unique dissolution-recrystallization dynamics that enable significant structural and functional modifications. Crucially, their non-covalent assembly strategies allow for a balanced manipulation of porosity, symmetry, crystallinity, and dimensions, facilitating the creation of advanced crystalline porous materials unattainable through conventional covalent or coordination bond synthesis. Despite their considerable promise in overcoming several limitations inherent to MOFs and COFs, particularly in terms of solution-processability, SAFs have received relatively little attention in recent literature. This Minireview aims to shed light on standout SAFs, exploring their design principles, synthesis strategies, and characterization methods. It emphasizes their distinctive features and the broad spectrum of potential applications across various domains, aiming to catalyze further development and practical application within the scientific community.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and their composites have garnered significant attention in recent years due to their exceptional properties and diverse applications across various fields. The conventional batch synthesis methods for MOFs and their composites often suffer from challenges such as long reaction times, poor reproducibility, and limited scalability. Continuous flow synthesis has emerged as a promising alternative for overcoming these limitations. In this short review, we discuss the recent advancements, challenges, and future perspectives of continuous flow synthesis in the context of MOFs and their composites. The review delves into a brief overview of the fundamental principles of flow synthesis, highlighting its advantages over batch methods. Key benefits, including precise control over reaction parameters, improved scalability and efficiency, rapid optimization capabilities, enhanced reaction kinetics and mass transfer, and increased safety and environmental sustainability, are addressed. Additionally, the versatility and flexibility of flow synthesis techniques are discussed. The article then explores various flow synthesis methods applicable to MOF and MOF composite production. The techniques covered include continuous flow solvothermal synthesis, mechanochemical synthesis, microwave and ultrasound-assisted flow synthesis, microfluidic droplet synthesis, and aerosol synthesis. Notably, the combination of flow chemistry and aerosol synthesis with real-time characterization is also addressed. Furthermore, the impact of flow synthesis on the properties and performance of MOFs is explored. Finally, the review discusses current challenges and future perspectives in the field of continuous flow MOF synthesis, paving the way for further development and broader application of this promising technique.

Abstract
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) are a major class of environmental pollutants hazardous to human health, but also highly relevant in other fields including early disease diagnostics and organoleptic perception of aliments. Therefore, accurate analysis of VOC is essential, and a need for new analytical methods is witnessed for rapid on-site detection without complex sample preparation. Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) offers a rapidly developing versatile analytical platform for the portable detection of chemical species. Nonetheless, the need for efficient docking of target analytes at the metallic surface significantly narrows the applicability of SERS. This limitation can be circumvented by interfacing the sensor surface with Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOF). These materials featuring chemical and structural versatility can efficiently pre-concentrate low molecular weight species such as VOC through their ordered porous structure. This review presents recent trends in the development of MOF-based SERS substrates with a focus on elucidating respective design rules for maximizing analytical performance. An overview of the status of the detection of harmful VOC is discussed in the context of industrial and environmental monitoring. In addition, a survey of the analysis of VOC biomarkers for medical diagnosis and emerging applications in aroma and flavor profiling is included.

Abstract
We present the synthesis and characterisation of three Ce-based metal-organic frameworks (Ce-MOFs) using fumaric acid (Fu), terephthalic acid (BDC), and trimesic acid (H3BTC) as linkers. The use of different linkers influenced the size of the MOF particles, surface area, crystallinity, and microporous structure. The successful implementation of Ce-Fu, Ce-BDC, and Ce-H3BTC MOFs for fluoride ion removal from wastewater was carried out, in which Ce-Fu MOFs exhibited a maximum adsorption capacity (AC) of 64.2 mg g-1. The study also reveals that the use of ultrasound as a mediator for adsorption study over conventional method gives rapid adsorption rate, in which 85% of the fluoride uptake took place just in 10 min and achieved maximum AC in 30 min. The kinetics data were most accurately explained by the pseudo-second-order model (PSO). The existence of co-ions such as NO3-, Cl-, HCO3-, SO42-, Br-, CO32-, and PO43- has a substantial effect on fluoride removal. The mechanism between the fluoride ions and the MOF surface took place via the electrostatic force and the ion exchange process, confirmed using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and delsa nano. The material is sustained its relatively higher F- ions removal efficiency up to the five cycles. This research might help in the development of novel microporous Ce-based MOFs since it possesses a highly stable crystalline structure in water, suggesting a promising role in aqueous applications.

Abstract
In the synthesis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), the choice of the metal precursor plays a key role because of the influence that it can exert on the crystallization kinetics. The present work explores the use of metal-carbamato complexes for the synthesis of benchmark MOFs, namely HKUST-1 and UiO-66. Cu2(O2CNEt2)4·2NHEt2 and Zr(O2CNEt2)4, prepared using straightforward CO2 fixation reactions starting from the corresponding metal chlorides and diethylamine, were employed as metal precursors for MOF formation. The synthesis conditions, including the solvent, temperature, and ligand protonation degree, were systematically investigated, revealing metal carbamates as highly reactive precursors due to their prompt release of CO2 and amine upon reaction with protic species, i.e., the polycarboxylic linkers. This property of metal carbamates allowed us to identify room temperature protocols to achieve MOFs with comparable properties to those obtained using traditional metal precursors. Subsequent optimization of the reaction conditions led to the design of a one-pot synthetic strategy for HKUST-1, starting directly from copper(II) chloride and diethylamine under a CO2 atmosphere. The MOFs were characterized using various techniques, including powder X-ray diffraction, N2 sorption analysis, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and CHN elemental analysis, and compared to reference samples prepared according to literature procedures.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 278:134224.

Abstract
In recent years, stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems based on pH, particularly those developed using bio-derived nanocomposite systems, have gained significant attention. In this work, a novel magnetic carrier was designed based on biopolymeric chitosan and metal-organic framework (MOF) for pH-controlling the release of anticancer drugs. To end this, an in-situ green method was performed to form Cu-based MOF in the presence of a magnetic polysaccharide synthesized by precipitation method toward the construction of CS/Fe3O4/Cu-MOF nanocomposite. The nanocomposite was immersed in an aqueous solution of a model anticancer drug, doxorubicin (DOX), and a higher loading capacity (90.1 ± 0.5 %) was achieved. The in-vitro drug release study showed low release rates in simulated physiological environments (pH 7.4, 37 °C, lower than about 20 %), but higher release rates in tumor tissue conditions (pH 4.5, 41 °C, higher than about 60 %) over 96 h, allowing for sustained and extended delivery of DOX. Additionally, the MTT assay demonstrated that the blank and DOX-loaded CS/Fe3O4/Cu-MOF had good cytocompatibility (over 80 % cell viability) and considerable cytotoxicity (lower than 40 % at 16 μg/mL) toward breast cancer (MCF-7) cell line, respectively. These results indicated that the synthesized nanocomposite with suitable pH-sensitivity has potential as a targeted anticancer agent.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), renowned for their exceptional porosity and crystalline structure, stand at the forefront of gas adsorption and separation applications. Shortly after their discovery through experimental synthesis, computational simulations quickly become an important method in broadening the use of MOFs by offering deep insights into their structural, functional, and performance properties. This review specifically addresses the pivotal role of molecular simulations in enlarging the molecular understanding of MOFs and enhancing their applications, particularly for gas adsorption. After reviewing the historical development and implementation of molecular simulation methods in the field of MOFs, high-throughput computational screening (HTCS) studies used to unlock the potential of MOFs in CO2 capture, CH4 storage, H2 storage, and water harvesting are visited and recent advancements in these adsorption applications are highlighted. The transformative impact of integrating artificial intelligence with HTCS on the prediction of MOFs' performance and directing the experimental efforts on promising materials is addressed. An outlook on current opportunities and challenges in the field to accelerate the adsorption applications of MOFs is finally provided.

Abstract
Isoreticular metal-organic framework-3 (IRMOF-3), a porous coordination polymer, is an MOF material with the characteristics of a large specific surface area and adjustable pore size. Due to the existence of the active amino group (-NH2) on the organic ligand, IRMOF-3 has more extensive research and application potential. Herein, the main preparation methods of IRMOF-3 in existing research were compared and discussed first. Second, we classified and summarized the functionalization modification of IRMOF-3 based on different reaction mechanisms. In addition, the expanded research and progress of IRMOF-3 and their derivatives in catalysis, hydrogen storage, material adsorption and separation, carrier materials, and fluorescence detection were discussed from an application perspective. Moreover, the industrialization prospect of IRMOF-3 and the pressing problems in its practical application were analyzed and prospected. This review is expected to provide a reference for the design and application of more new nanomaterials based on IRMOF-3 to develop more advanced functional materials in industrial production and engineering applications.

In recent years, the focus has intensified on harnessing thermal and mechanical energy from human activities to power small wearable electronics. This vision has attracted considerable attention from researchers, with an emphasis on the development of suitable materials that can efficiently convert human body energy into usable electrical form. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), with their unique tunable structures, large surface areas, and high porosity, emerge as a promising material category for human body energy harvesting due to their ability to be precisely engineered at the molecular level, which allows for the optimization of their properties to suit specific energy harvesting needs. This article explores the progressive development of MOF materials, highlighting their potential in the realm of self-power devices for wearable applications. It first introduces the typical energy harvesting routes that are particularly suitable for harvesting human body energy, including thermoelectric, triboelectric, and piezoelectric techniques. Then, it delves into various research advances that have demonstrated the efficacy of MOFs in capturing and converting body-generated energy into electrical energy, emphasizing on the conceptual design, device fabrication, and applications in medical health monitoring, human-computer interaction, and motion monitoring. Furthermore, it discusses potential future directions for research in MOF-based self-powered devices and outlines perspectives that could drive breakthroughs in the efficiency and practicality of these devices.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous materials with applications in gas separations and catalysis, but a lack of water stability often limits their practical use given the ubiquity of water. Consequently, it is useful to predict whether a MOF is water-stable before investing time and resources into synthesis. Existing heuristics for designing water-stable MOFs lack generality and limit the diversity of explored chemistry due to narrowly defined criteria. Machine learning (ML) models offer the promise to improve the generality of predictions but require data. In an improvement on previous efforts, we enlarge the available training data for MOF water stability prediction by over 400%, adding 911 MOFs with water stability labels assigned through semiautomated manuscript analysis to curate the new data set WS24. The additional data are shown to improve ML model performance (test ROC-AUC > 0.8) over diverse chemistry for the prediction of both water stability and stability in harsher acidic conditions. We illustrate how the expanded data set and models can be used with a previously developed activation stability model in combination with genetic algorithms to quickly screen ∼10,000 MOFs from a space of hundreds of thousands for candidates with multivariate stability (upon activation, in water, and in acid). We uncover metal- and geometry-specific design rules for robust MOFs. The data set and ML models developed in this work, which we disseminate through an easy-to-use web interface, are expected to contribute toward the accelerated discovery of novel, water-stable MOFs for applications such as direct air gas capture and water treatment.

Abstract
Morphological anisotropic engineering is powerful to synthesize metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with versatile physicochemical properties for diverse applications ranging from gas storage/separation to electrocatalysis and batteries, etc. Herein, we developed a carbon substrate guided strategy to manipulate the facet-dependent coordination for morphology engineering of Fe-THBQ (tetrahydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone) frameworks, which is built with cubic Fe octamer bridged by two parallel THBQ ligands along three orthogonal axes, extending to a three-dimensional (3D) framework with pcu-e network topology. The electronegative O-containing functional groups on carbon surfaces compete with THBQ linkers to selectively interact with the unsaturated coordinated Fe cations on the {111} facets and inhibit crystal growth along the <111> direction. The morphology of Fe-THBQ evolves from thermodynamically favored truncated cube to cuboctahedron depending on the content of O-containing functional groups on the carbon substrate. The Fe-THBQ with varied morphologies exhibits facet-dependent performances for electrochemical lithium storage. This work will shed light on the morphology modulation of MOFs for promising applications.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are hybrid porous materials presenting several tuneable properties, allowing them to be utilised for a wide range of applications. To date, focus has been on the preparation of novel crystalline MOFs for specific applications. Recently, interest in amorphous MOFs (aMOFs), defined by their lack of correlated long-range order, is growing. This is due to their potential favourable properties compared to their crystalline equivalents, including increased defect concentration, improved processability and gas separation ability. Direct synthesis of these disordered materials presents an alternative method of preparation to post-synthetic amorphisation of a crystalline framework, potentially allowing for the preparation of aMOFs with varying compositions and structures, and very different properties to crystalline MOFs. This perspective summarises current literature on directly synthesised aMOFs, and proposes methods that could be utilised to modify existing syntheses for crystalline MOFs to form their amorphous counterparts. It outlines parameters that could discourage the ordering of crystalline MOFs, before examining the potential properties that could emerge. Methodologies of structural characterisation are discussed, in addition to the necessary analyses required to define a topologically amorphous structure.

Abstract
Two novel Ce(III) metal organic frameworks (MOFs) with formulas [Ce(5Meip)(H-5Meip)]nGR-MOF-17 and [CeCl(5Meip)(DMF)]nGR-MOF-18 (5Meip = 5-methylisophthalate, DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide) have been synthesized, forming 3-dimensional frameworks. Magnetic measurements show that both compounds present field-induced slow magnetic relaxation under a small applied dc field. For GR-MOF-17, the temperature dependence of relaxation times is best described by a Raman mechanism, whereas for GR-MOF-18, relaxation occurs through a combination of Raman and local-mode pathways. Moreover, when avoiding short Ce⋯Ce interactions by magnetic dilution in GR-MOF-17@La and GR-MOF-18@La, only the local-mode mechanism is responsible for magnetic relaxation. Photophysical studies show the occurrence of ligand-centred luminescence in both compounds and phosphorescence emission at low temperature for GR-MOF-17.

Abstract
The tracking of nanomedicines in their concentration and location inside living systems has a pivotal effect on the understanding of the biological processes, early-stage diagnosis, and therapeutic monitoring of diseases. Nanoscale metal-organic frameworks (nano MOFs) possess high surface areas, definite structure, regulated optical properties, rich functionalized sites, and good biocompatibility that allow them to excel in a wide range of biomedical applications. Controllable syntheses and functionalization endow nano MOFs with better properties as imaging agents and sensing units for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. This minireview summarizes the tunable synthesis strategies of nano MOFs with controllable size, shape, and regulated luminescent performance, and pinpoints their recent advanced applications as optical elements in bioimaging and biosensing. The current limitations and future development directions of nano MOF-contained materials in bioimaging and biosensing applications are also discussed, aiming to expand the biological applications of nano MOF-based nanomedicine and facilitate their production or clinical translation.

Abstract
Superlong MOF-74-type micro/nanofibers, which have aspect ratios much higher than 200, are synthesized via nanoparticulate MOF-mediated recrystallization. Co-MOF-74 microfibers have high crystallinity, whereas Co-MOF-74-II nanofibers are composed of nanocrystals and amorphous phases, even though they have nanofibrous morphology. Both MOFs consist of plenty of micropores with diameters in the range of 1.0 to 2.0 nm, and they exhibit high thermal stability with a decomposition temperature higher than 260.0 °C. The MOFs are demonstrated for selective absorption of some vitamins including riboflavin, folic acid, and 5-methyltetrahydrofolate. Co-MOF-74-II nanofibers can efficiently absorb riboflavin and folic acid from their aqueous solution with absorption percentages approaching 90.0%, and they have enhanced capability for absorbing tocopherol in methanol. The micro/nanofibrous morphology, together with the capability for selective vitamin absorption, makes the novel MOFs highly promising for applications in micro-solid-phase extraction.

Abstract
To address the issue of bacterial growth on fresh-cut fruits, this paper reports the synthesis of nanosized γ-cyclodextrin metal-organic frameworks (CD-MOFs) using an ultrasound-assisted method and their application as carriers of limonene for antibacterial active packaging. The effects of the processing parameters on the morphology and crystallinity of the CD-MOFs are investigated, and the results prove that the addition of methanol is the key to producing nanosized CD-MOFs. The limonene loading content of the nanosized CD-MOFs can reach approximately 170 mg g-1. The sustained-release behaviors of limonene in the CD-MOFs are evaluated. Molecular docking simulations reveal the distribution and binding sites of limonene in the CD-MOFs. CD-MOFs are deposited on the surfaces of polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibers via an immersion method, and limonene-loaded CD-MOF@PCL nanofibers are prepared. The morphology, crystallinity, thermal stability, mechanical properties, and antibacterial activity of the nanofibers are also studied. The nanofiber film effectively inhibits bacterial growth and prolongs the shelf life of fresh-cut apples. This study provides a novel strategy for developing antibacterial active packaging materials based on CD-MOFs and PCL nanofibers.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are metal-organic skeleton compounds composed of self-assembled metal ions or clusters and organic ligands. MOF materials often have porous structures, high specific surface areas, uniform and adjustable pores, high surface activity and easy modification and have a wide range of prospects for application. MOFs have been widely used. In recent years, with the continuous expansion of MOF materials, they have also achieved remarkable results in the field of antimicrobial agents. In this review, the structural composition and synthetic modification of MOF materials are introduced in detail, and the antimicrobial mechanisms and applications of these materials in the healing of infected wounds are described. Moreover, the opportunities and challenges encountered in the development of MOF materials are presented, and we expect that additional MOF materials with high biosafety and efficient antimicrobial capacity will be developed in the future.

Abstract
Mixed matrix membranes represent an important technology for gas separations. Nanosheets of metal-organic framework (MOF) materials of high aspect ratio and size-selective gas transport properties have the potential to promote the efficient mixing of components to form membranes for gas separation. Herein, we report a bottom-up synthesis of extended sheets of kagomé (kgm) topology, kgmt-Bu, via the linkage of [Cu2(O2CR)4] paddlewheels with 5-tert-butylisophthalic acid. The growth of the layered structure can be controlled by the choice of solvent and modulator. Nanosheets of kgmt-Bu of average thickness of 20 nm and aspect ratio of 40 to 50 can be obtained, and the sieving effect of the channels in kgmt-Bu boost the efficient separation of CO2 over CH4. A mixed matrix membrane comprising kgmt-Bu nanosheets with Matrimid shows a 32% enhancement in CO2/CH4 selectivity compared with the membrane incorporating the MOF in the particulate form.

Abstract
Electrochemical reduction reactions, as cathodic processes in many energy-related devices, significantly impact the overall efficiency determined mainly by the performance of electrocatalysts. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) derived carbon-supported metal materials have become one of star electrocatalysts due to their tunable structure and composition through ligand design and metal screening. However, for different electroreduction reactions, the required active metal species vary in phase component, electronic state, and catalytic center configuration, hence requiring effective customization. From this perspective, this review comprehensively analyzes the structural design principles, metal loading strategies, practical electroreduction performance, and complex catalytic mechanisms, thereby providing insights and guidance for the future rational design of such electroreduction catalysts.

Abstract
Although it is well-known that the Lewis acidity of Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) can effectively enhance their catalytic activity in organic transformations, access to these Lewis-acidic sites remains a key hurdle to widespread applications of Lewis-acidic catalysis by MOFs. Easy accessibility of strong Lewis acidic sites onto 2D MOFs by using proper activation methods can be a cornerstone in attaining desired catalytic performance. Herein, we report a new 2D chemically stable MOF, IITKGP-60, which displayed excellent framework robustness over a wide pH range (2-12). Benefiting from the abundant open metal sites (OMSs) and framework robustness, the catalytic activity of the developed material was explored in one-pot three-component Strecker reaction and Knoevenagel condensation reaction. Moreover, the developed catalyst is superior in catalyzing the reactions involving sterically hindered substrate (1-naphthaldehyde) with high turnover number. A comparative catalytic study was conducted using different activation methods (chloroform and methanol exchanged activated samples), highlighting the significant effect of activation methods on its catalytic performances. The sustainable synthetic pathway under solvent-free conditions for a broad scope of substrates using low catalyst loading and excellent recyclability made the developed pH-stable framework a promising heterogeneous catalyst.

Abstract
Increased levels of heavy metals (HMs) in aquatic environments poses serious health and ecological concerns. Hence, several approaches have been proposed to eliminate/reduce the levels of HMs before the discharge/reuse of HMs-contaminated waters. Adsorption is one of the most attractive processes for water decontamination; however, the efficiency of this process greatly depends on the choice of adsorbent. Therefore, the key aim of this article is to review the progress in the development and application of different classes of conventional and emerging adsorbents for the abatement of HMs from contaminated waters. Adsorbents that are based on activated carbon, natural materials, microbial, clay minerals, layered double hydroxides (LDHs), nano-zerovalent iron (nZVI), graphene, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), metal organic frameworks (MOFs), and zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) are critically reviewed, with more emphasis on the last four adsorbents and their nanocomposites since they have the potential to significantly boost the HMs removal efficiency from contaminated waters. Furthermore, the optimal process conditions to achieve efficient performance are discussed. Additionally, adsorption isotherm, kinetics, thermodynamics, mechanisms, and effects of varying adsorption process parameters have been introduced. Moreover, heavy metal removal driven by other processes such as oxidation, reduction, and precipitation that might concurrently occur in parallel with adsorption have been reviewed. The application of adsorption for the treatment of real wastewater has been also reviewed. Finally, challenges, limitations and potential areas for improvements in the adsorptive removal of HMs from contaminated waters are identified and discussed. Thus, this article serves as a comprehensive reference for the recent developments in the field of adsorptive removal of heavy metals from wastewater. The proposed future research work at the end of this review could help in addressing some of the key limitations facing this technology, and create a platform for boosting the efficiency of the adsorptive removal of heavy metals.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as promising nanocarriers for cancer treatment due to their unique properties. Featuring high porosity, extensive surface area, chemical stability, and good biocompatibility, MOFs are ideal for efficient drug delivery, targeted therapy, and controlled release. They can be designed to target specific cellular organelles to disrupt metabolic processes in cancer cells. Additionally, functionalization with enzymes mimics their catalytic activity, enhancing photodynamic therapy and overcoming apoptosis resistance in cancer cells. The controllable and regular structure of MOFs, along with their tumor microenvironment responsiveness, make them promising nanocarriers for anticancer drugs. These carriers can effectively deliver a wide range of drugs with improved bioavailability, controlled release rate, and targeted delivery efficiency compared to alternatives. In this article, we review both experimental and computational studies focusing on the interaction between MOFs and drug, explicating the release mechanisms and stability in physiological conditions. Notably, we explore the relationship between MOF structure and its ability to damage cancer cells, elucidating why MOFs are excellent candidates for bio-applicability. By understanding the problem and exploring potential solutions, this review provides insights into the future directions for harnessing the full potential of MOFs, ultimately leading to improved therapeutic outcomes in cancer treatment.

Abstract
The effects of impurities on reaction precursors for metal-organic framework (MOF) synthesis have not been studied in extensive detail. The impact of these impurities can be an important factor while considering scale-up of these materials. In this work, we study the apparently positive impact of the presence of manganese ions for the synthesis of a Co-based MOF, Massey University Framework-16 (MUF-16). The presence of a trace amount of manganese in the reaction mixture led to consistently high CO2 uptake across multiple batches. Characterization including X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared-attenuated total reflectance, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy led us to hypothesize that the differences in CO2 adsorption among materials with differing synthesis routes arise from variations in the local environment around the cobalt metal center. Aided by density functional theory calculations, we speculate that manganese ions get inserted into the structure during crystallization and act as catalysts for ligand substitution, improving the possibility for octahedral coordination of cobalt with the ligand, thus leading to Co-based pristine structures with higher CO2 uptakes.

Abstract
Copper (Cu) and Cu-based nanomaterials have received tremendous attention in recent years because of their unique physicochemical properties and good biocompatibility in the treatment of various diseases, especially cancer. To date, researchers have designed and fabricated a variety of integrated Cu-based nanocomplexes with distinctive nanostructures and applied them in cancer therapy, mainly including chemotherapy, radiotherapy (RT), photothermal therapy (PTT), chemodynamic therapy (CDT), photodynamic therapy (PDT), cuproptosis-mediated therapy, etc. Due to the limited effect of a single treatment method, the development of composite diagnostic nanosystems that integrate chemotherapy, PTT, CDT, PDT, and other treatments is of great significance and offers great potential for the development of the next generation of anticancer nanomedicines. In view of the rapid development of Cu-based nanocomplexes in the field of cancer therapy, this review focuses on the current state of research on Cu-based nanomaterials, followed by a discussion of Cu-based nanocomplexes for combined cancer therapy. Moreover, the current challenges and future prospects of Cu-based nanocomplexes in clinical translation are proposed to provide some insights into the design of integrated Cu-based nanotherapeutic platforms.

Abstract
Solid electrolytes with high ionic conductivity and satisfactory electrochemical stability are essential for the development of solid-state batteries. However, current strategies, including polymer (and polymer-based composite) electrolytes, still face challenges in meeting the bar set by real operations. We seek to improve the Li-ion conduction of the electrolytes by incorporating mesoporous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) into the polymer matrix. Specifically, MOFs with pores larger than 3.0 nm are constructed by three-component reactions that involve the construction of both coordinative and dynamic imine linkages. The MOFs allow polymer penetration and amorphization and efficient lithium salt dissociation in the confined channels. Numerous metal sites and organic functionalities in the MOF backbone further assist the ion migration by providing strong interactions with the fluorinated polymer and the Li+. Remarkable ionic conductivity (0.95 mS cm-1) and a large lithium transference number (0.64) are achieved. Overall, the study fully utilizes both the MOF structural units with atomic precision and the encompassed space at the mesoscale for solid-state electrolyte development.

Abstract
Metallic atoms within metal-organic framework (MOF) materials exhibit a distinctive and adaptable coordination structure. The three-dimensional (3D) pore configuration of MOFs enables the complete exposure of metal active sites, rendering them prevalent in various catalytic reactions. In this study, zinc (Zn) atoms within Zn-based MOF materials, characterized by an abundance of valence electrons, are utilized for the transesterification of dimethyl carbonate (DMC). Additionally, the introduction of zirconium (Zr) effectively addresses the susceptibility of the MOFs' crystal structure to dissolution in organic solvents. The formulated catalyst, Zn-10%Zr-MOF(300), demonstrates remarkable catalytic performance with 91.5% DMC selectivity, 61.9% propylene carbonate (PC) conversion, and 56.6% DMC yield. Impressively, the catalyst maintains its high performance over five cycles. Results indicate that Zr interacts with Zn, forming new coordination bonds and enhancing the catalyst crystal structure stability. Moreover, electron transfer intensifies the alkalinity of the active Zn atoms, enhancing the overall catalyst performance. This research informs the development of transesterification heterogeneous catalysts and broadens the application scope of MOF catalysts.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play several crucial roles in the physiological and pathological processes of the human body. They are considered as important biomarkers for the diagnosis of various disorders. Thus, rapid, sensitive, selective, and affordable detection of miRNAs is of great importance. However, the small size, low abundance, and highly similar sequences of miRNAs impose major challenges to their accurate detection in biological samples. In recent years, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been applied as promising sensing materials for the fabrication of different biosensors due to their distinctive characteristics, such as high porosity and surface area, tunable pores, outstanding adsorption affinities, and ease of functionalization. In this review, the applications of MOFs and MOF-derived materials in the fabrication of fluorescence, electrochemical, chemiluminescence, electrochemiluminescent, and photoelectrochemical biosensors for the detection of miRNAs and their detection principle and analytical performance are discussed. This paper attempts to provide readers with a comprehensive knowledge of the fabrication and sensing mechanisms of miRNA detection platforms.

Abstract
Environmental pollution caused by organic effluents emitted by industry has become a worldwide issue and poses a serious threat to the public and the ecosystem. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), comprising metal-containing clusters and organic bridging ligands, are porous and crystalline materials, possessing fascinating shape and size-dependent properties such as high surface area, abundant active sites, well-defined crystal morphologies, and huge potential for surface functionalization. To date, numerous well designated MOFs have emerged as critical functional materials to solve the growing challenges associated with water environmental issues. Here we present the recent progress of MOF-based materials and their applications in the treatment of organic effluents. Firstly, several traditional and emerging synthesis strategies for MOF composites are introduced. Then, the structural and functional regulations of MOF composites are presented and analyzed. Finally, typical applications of MOF-based materials in treating organic effluents, including chemical, pharmaceutical, textile, and agricultural wastewaters are summarized. Overall, this review is anticipated to tailor design and regulation of MOF-based functional materials for boosting the performance of organic effluent remediation.

Abstract
Electrochemical carbon dioxide (CO2) conversion has enormous potential for reducing high atmospheric CO2 levels and producing valuable products simultaneously; however the development of inexpensive catalysts remains a great challenge. In this work, we successfully synthesised a 1D Cu-based metal-organic framework [Cu(PyDC)(H2O)], which crystallizes in an orthorhombic system with the Pccn space group, by the hydrothermal method. Among the different catalysts utilized, the heterostructures of cathodized Cu-Cu2O@CC demonstrate increased efficiency in producing CH3OH and C2H4, achieving maximum FE values of 37.4% and 40.53%, respectively. Also, the product formation rates of CH3OH and C2H4 reach up to 667 and 1921 μmol h-1 cm-2. On the other side, Cu-Cu2O/NC-700 carbon composites simultaneously produced C1-C3 products with a total FE of 23.27%. Furthermore, a comprehensive study involving detailed DFT simulations is used to calculate the energetic stability and catalytic activity towards the CO2 reduction of Cu(111), Cu2O(111), and Cu@Cu2O(111) surfaces. During the early phase of electrochemical treatment, Cu(II) carboxylate nodes (Cu-O) in the Cu(PyDC)(H2O) MOF were reduced to Cu and Cu2O, with a possible synergistic enhancement from the PyDC ligands. Thus, the improved activity and product enhancement are closely associated with the cathodized reconstruction of Cu-Cu2O@CC heterostructures on carbon cloth. Hence, this study provides efficient derivatives of Cu-based MOFs for notable electrocatalytic activity in CO2 reduction and gives valuable insights towards the advancement of practical CO2 conversion technology.

Abstract
The thermally stable zirconium-based MOF, UiO-66, was employed for the preparation of bonded porous-layer open-tubular (PLOT) GC columns. The synthesis included the in situ growth of the UiO-66 film on the inner wall of the capillary through a one-step solvothermal procedure. SEM-EDX analysis revealed the formation of a thin, continuous, uniform, and compact layer of UiO-66 polycrystals on the functionalized inner wall of the column. The average polarity (ΔIav = 700) and the McReynolds constants reflected the polar nature of the UiO-66 stationary phase. Several mixtures of small organic compounds and real samples were used to evaluate the separation performance of the fabricated columns. Linear alkanes from n-pentane to n-decane were baseline separated within 1.35 min. Also, a series of six n-alkylbenzenes (C3-C8) were separated within 3 min with a minimum resolution of 3.09, whereas monohalobenzene mixtures were separated at 220 °C within 14s. UiO-66 PLOT columns are ideally suited for the isothermal separation of chlorobenzene structural isomers at 210 °C within 45 s with Rs ≥ 1.37. The prepared column featured outstanding thermal stability (up to 450 °C) without any observed bleeding or significant impact on its performance. This feature enabled the analysis of various petroleum-based samples.

Abstract
Electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2RR) has emerged as a promising and sustainable approach to cut carbon emissions by converting greenhouse gas CO2 to value-added chemicals and fuels. Metal-organic coordination compounds, especially the copper (Cu)-based coordination compounds, which feature well-defined crystalline structures and designable metal active sites, have attracted much research attention in electrocatalytic CO2RR. Herein, the recent advances of electrochemical CO2RR on pristine Cu-based coordination compounds with different types of Cu active sites are reviewed. First, the general reaction pathways of electrocatalytic CO2RR on Cu-based coordination compounds are briefly introduced. Then the highly efficient conversion of CO2 on various kinds of Cu active sites (e.g., single-Cu site, dimeric-Cu site, multi-Cu site, and heterometallic site) is systematically discussed, along with the corresponding catalytic reaction mechanisms. Finally, some existing challenges and potential opportunities for this research direction are provided to guide the rational design of metal-organic coordination compounds for their practical application in electrochemical CO2RR.

Abstract
Achieving precise control over gelator alignment and morphology is crucial for crafting tailored materials and supramolecular structures with distinct properties. We successfully aligned the self-assembled micelles formed by a functionalized dipeptide 2NapFF into long 1-D "gel noodles" by cross-linking with divalent metal chlorides. We identify the most effective cross-linker for alignment, enhancing mechanical stability, and imparting functional properties. Our study shows that Group 2 metal ions are particularly suited for creating mechanically robust yet flexible gel noodles because of their ionic and nondirectional bonding with carboxylate groups. In contrast, the covalent nature and high directional bonds of d-block metal ions with carboxylates tend to disrupt the self-assembly of 2NapFF. Furthermore, the 2NapFF-Cu noodles demonstrated selective antibacterial activity, indicating that the potent antibacterial property of the copper(II) ion is preserved within the cross-linked system. By merging insights into molecular alignment, gel extrusion processing, and integrating specific functionalities, we illustrate how the versatility of dipeptide-based gels can be utilized in creating next-generation soft materials.

Abstract
The growing demand for fossil fuels and subsequent CO2 emissions prompted a search for alternate sources of energy and a reduction in CO2. Photocatalysis driven by solar light has been found as a potential research area to tackle both these problems. In this direction, SAC@MOF (Single-atom loaded MOFs) photocatalysis is an emerging field and a promising technology. The unique properties of single-atom catalysts (SACs), such as high catalytic activity and selectivity, are leveraged in these systems. Photocatalysis, focusing on the utilization of Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) as platforms for creating single-atom catalysts (SACs) characterized by metal single-atoms (SAs) as their active sites, are noted for their unparalleled atomic efficiency, precisely defined active sites, and superior photocatalytic performance. The synergy between MOFs and SAs in photocatalytic systems is meticulously examined, highlighting how they collectively enhance photocatalytic efficiency. This review examines SAC@MOF development and applications in environmental and energy sectors, focusing on synthesis and stabilization methods for SACs on MOFs and also characterization techniques vital for understanding these catalysts. The potential of SAC@MOF in CO2 Photoreduction and Photocatalytic H2 evolution is highlighted, emphasizing its role in green energy technologies and advances in materials science and Photocatalysis.

Abstract
Topology serves as a blueprint for the construction of reticular structures such as metal-organic frameworks, especially for those based on building blocks with highly symmetrical shapes. However, it remains a challenge to predict the topology of the frameworks from less symmetrical units, because their corresponding vertex figures are largely deformed from the perfect geometries with no "default" net embedding. Furthermore, vertices involving flexible units may have multiple shape choices, and the competition among their designated topologies makes the structure prediction in large uncertainty. Herein, the deformation index is proposed to characterize the symmetry loss of the vertex figure by comparing it with its ideal geometry. The mathematical index is employed to predict the shapes of two in situ formed Co-based metalloligands (pseudo-tetrahedron and pseudo-square), which further dictate the framework topology (flu and scu) when they are joined with the [Zr6O8]-based cuboid units. The two frameworks with very similar constituents provide an ideal platform to investigate how the pore shapes and interconnectivity influence the gas separation. The net with cylindrical channels outperforms the other with discreate cages in C3H8/C2H6/CH4 separation, benefiting from the facile accessibility of its interaction sites to the guests imposed by the specific framework topology.
