Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a fascinating family of crystalline porous materials made up of metal clusters and organic linkers. In comparison with other porous materials, MOFs have unique characteristics including high surface area, homogeneous open cavities, and permanent high porosity with variable shapes and sizes. For these reasons, MOFs have recently been explored as sorbents in sample preparation by solid-phase extraction (SPE). However, SPE requires large amounts of sorbents and suffers from limited contact surfaces with analytes, which compromises extraction recovery and efficiency. Dispersive SPE (D-SPE) overcomes these limitations by dispersing the sorbents into the sample, which in turn increases contact with the analytes. Miniaturization of the microextraction procedure, particularly the amount of sorbent reduces the amount consumed of the organic solvent and shorten the time required to attain the equilibrium state. This may explain the reported high efficiency and applicability of MOFs in dispersive micro SPE (D-µ-SPE). This method retains all the advantages of solid phase extraction while also being simpler, faster, cheaper, and, in some cases, more effective in comparison with D-SPE. Besides, D-µ-SPE requires smaller amounts of the sorbents which reduces the overall cost, and the amount of waste generated from the analytical process. In this review, we discuss the applications of MOFs in D-µ-SPE of various analytes including pharmaceuticals, pesticides, organic dyes from miscellaneous matrices including water samples, biological samples and food samples.

Encapsulation of InP/ZnS Quantum Dots into MOF-5 Matrices for Solid-State Luminescence: Ship in the Bottle and Bottle around the Ship Methodologies. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 17:3155. [PMID: 38998238 PMCID: PMC11242582 DOI: 10.3390/ma17133155] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2024] [Revised: 06/21/2024] [Accepted: 06/25/2024] [Indexed: 07/14/2024]
Abstract
The utilization of InP-based quantum dots (QDs) as alternative luminescent nanoparticles to cadmium-based QDs is actively pursued. However, leveraging their luminescence for solid-state applications presents challenges due to the sensitivity of InP QDs to oxidation and aggregation-caused quenching. Hence, an appealing strategy is to protect and disperse InP QDs within hybrid materials. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) offer a promising solution as readily available crystalline porous materials. Among these, MOF-5 (composed of {Zn4O}6+ nodes and terephthalate struts) can be synthesized under mild conditions (at room temperature and basic pH), making it compatible with InP QDs. In the present work, luminescent InP/ZnS QDs are successfully incorporated within MOF-5 by two distinct methods. In the bottle around the ship (BAS) approach, the MOF was synthesized around the QDs. Alternatively, in the ship in the bottle (SIB) strategy, the QDs were embedded via capillarity into a specially engineered, more porous variant of MOF-5. Comparative analysis of the BAS and SIB approaches, evaluating factors such as operational simplicity, photoluminescence properties, and the resistance of the final materials to leaching were carried out. This comparative study provides insights into the efficacy of these strategies for the integration of InP/ZnS QDs within MOF-5 for potential solid-state applications in materials chemistry.

[PMID: 38192763 PMCID: PMC10772179 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e23840] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2023] [Revised: 11/30/2023] [Accepted: 12/13/2023] [Indexed: 01/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising materials offering exceptional performance across a myriad of applications, attributable to their remarkable physicochemical properties such as regular porosity, crystalline structure, and tailored functional groups. Despite their potential, there is a lack of dedicated reviews that focus on key physicochemical characterizations of MOFs for the beginners and new researchers in the field. This review is written based on our expertise in the synthesis and characterization of MOFs, specifically to provide a right direction for the researcher who is a beginner in this area. In this way, experimental errors can be reduced, and wastage of time and chemicals can be avoided when new researchers conduct a study. In this article, this topic is critically analyzed, and findings and conclusions are presented. We reviewed three well-known XRD techniques, including PXRD, single crystal XRD, and SAXS, which were used for XRD analysis depending on the crystal size and the quality of crystal morphology. The TGA profile was an effective factor for evaluating the quality of the activation process and for ensuring the successful investigation for other characterizations. The BET and pore size were significantly affected by the activation process and selective benzene chain cross-linkers. FTIR is a prominent method that is used to investigate the functional groups on pore surfaces, and this method is successfully used to evaluate the activation process, characterize functionalized MOFs, and estimate their applications. The most significant methods of characterization include the X-ray diffraction, which is utilized for structural identification, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), which is used for exploring thermal decomposition. It is important to note that the thermal stability of MOFs is influenced by two main factors: the metal-ligand interaction and the type of functional groups attached to the organic ligand. The textural properties of the MOFs, on the other hand, can be scrutinized through nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms experiments at 77 K. However, for smaller pore size, the Argon adsorption-desorption isotherm at 87.3 K is preferred. Furthermore, the CO2 adsorption isotherm at 273 K can be used to measure ultra-micropore sizes and sizes lower than these, which cannot be measured by using the N2 adsorption-desorption isotherm at 77 K. The highest BET was observed in high-valence MOFs that are constructed based on the metal-oxo cluster, which has an excellent ability to control their textural properties. It was found that the synthesis procedure (including the choice of solvent, cross-linker, secondary metal, surface functional groups, and temperature), activation method, and pressure significantly impact the surface area of the MOF and, by extension, its structural integrity. Additionally, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy plays a crucial role in identifying active MOF functional groups. Understanding these physicochemical properties and utilizing relevant characterization techniques will enable more precise MOF selection for specific applications.

Abstract
The structure and chemistry of metal-organic frameworks or MOFs dictate their properties and functionalities. However, their architecture and form are essential for facilitating the transport of molecules, the flow of electrons, the conduction of heat, the transmission of light, and the propagation of force, which are vital in many applications. This work explores the transformation of inorganic gels into MOFs as a general strategy to construct complex porous MOF architectures at nano, micro, and millimeter length scales. MOFs can be induced to form along three different pathways governed by gel dissolution, MOF nucleation, and crystallization kinetics. Slow gel dissolution, rapid nucleation, and moderate crystal growth result in a pseudomorphic transformation (pathway 1) that preserves the original network structure and pores, while a comparably faster crystallization displays significant localized structural changes but still preserves network interconnectivity (pathway 2). MOF exfoliates from the gel surface during rapid dissolution, thus inducing nucleation in the pore liquid leading to a dense assembly of percolated MOF particles (pathway 3). Thus, the prepared MOF 3D objects and architectures can be fabricated with superb mechanical strength (>98.7 MPa), excellent permeability (>3.4 × 10-10 m2), and large surface area (1100 m2 g-1) and mesopore volumes (1.1 cm3 g-1).

Abstract
The chemical pathway for synthesizing covalent organic frameworks (COFs) involves a complex medley of reaction sequences over a rippling energy landscape that cannot be adequately described using existing theories. Even with the development of state-of-the-art experimental and computational tools, identifying primary mechanisms of nucleation and growth of COFs remains elusive. Other than empirically, little is known about how the catalyst composition and water activity affect the kinetics of the reaction pathway. Here, for the first time, we employ time-resolved in situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) coupled with a six-parameter microkinetic model consisting of ∼10 million reactions and over 20 000 species. The integrated approach elucidates previously unrecognized roles of catalyst pKa on COF yield and water on growth rate and size distribution. COF crystalline yield increases with decreasing pKa of the catalysts, whereas the effect of water is to reduce the growth rate of COF and broaden the size distribution. The microkinetic model reproduces the experimental data and quantitatively predicts the role of synthesis conditions such as temperature, catalyst, and precursor concentration on the nucleation and growth rates. Furthermore, the model also validates the second-order reaction mechanism of COF-5 and predicts the activation barriers for classical and non-classical growth of COF-5 crystals. The microkinetic model developed here is generalizable to different COFs and other multicomponent systems.

Abstract
Among cationic dyes, malachite green (MG) is commonly used for dying purposes and also as an inhibitor in aquaculture, food, health, and chemical industries due to its cytotoxic effects. Therefore, MG removal is essential to keep the ecosystem and human health safety. Adsorption is a viable and versatile option and exploring efficient adsorbents have high priority. Herein, MOF-5 and aminated corn Stover reduced graphene oxide (ACS-RGO) of typical adsorbents of metal-organic-frameworks (MOFs) and carbon-based classes were studied for MG removal. MOF-5 and ACS-RGO had a specific surface area and total pore volume of 507.4 and 389.0 m2/g, and 0.271 cm3/g and 0.273 cm3/g, respectively. ACS-RGO was superior for MG adsorption and the kinetic rate coefficient for ACS-RGO was ~ 7.2 times compared to MOF-5. For ACS-RGO, MG removal remained high (> 94%) in a wide range of pH. However, dye removal was pH-dependent for MOF-5 and increased from ~ 32% to ~ 67% by increasing pH from 4 to 12. Increasing dye concentration from 25 mg/L to 100 mg/L decreased adsorption by MOF-5 and ACS-RGO for ~ 30% and 7%, respectively. Dye removal was evident in a few tens of seconds after adding ACS-RGO at doses above 0.5 g/L. A significant loss of 46% in adsorption was observed by decreasing MOF-5 mass from 1 to 0.1 g/L. ACS-RGO removed MG in multilayer with an exceptional adsorption capacity of 1088.27 mg/g. In conclusion, ACS-RGO, and MOF-5 showed promising kinetic rates and adsorption capacities toward MG.

Abstract
Microporous round cake-like (diameter: 900 ± 100 nm) MIL-125(Ti) carrier with a central metal (Ti) exhibiting bio-affinity and possessing a great potential to be used as drug release platform, has been synthesized in the present study. The thermal and pH responsiveness of drug delivery systems (DDS) are the most important parameters for drug release and can be provided through polymer coating techniques. The Pluronic F127 (F127) and chitosan (CH) monomers were inserted into the crystal lattice of MIL-125(Ti) carrier during the de novo synthesis process, which were subsequently loaded with doxorubicin (DOX). The results reveal particle size changes (ranged between 30 and 50 %) from the original size of the MIL-125(Ti) carrier in response to temperature and pH when the carrier reaches acid environment. The drug release profiles have been completed through self-design device, which provides for the real-time release in the DOX amounts via UV-Vis spectra. The kinetics analysis was used to evaluate the R2 values of first order, Higuchi, Korsmeyer-peppas, and Weibull fitting equations, where the Weibull fitting indicated the best R2. An increase by 59.3 % of DOX released under the acid status (pH = 5.4) was observed, indicating that the CH-MIL-125(Ti) carrier is temperature and pH responsive. Moreover, the lattice explosion resulting from the temperature increase in the range of 25-42 °C caused an increase in F127-MIL-125(Ti) by 30.8-38.3 %. The simulated SAXS/WAXS studies for the microstructures of MIL-125(Ti) based DDS at different temperatures after polymer coating (F127-MIL-125(Ti)) provide the possible mechanism of lattice explosion. As such, the responsive Ti-MOF has a highly potential for use in the applications of cancer treatment.

Abstract
Constructing metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with high volatile organic compounds (VOCs) adsorption capacity and excellent water resistance remain challenging. Herein, a monocarboxylic acid-assisted mixed ligands strategy was designed to synthesize a novel fluorinated MOFs, MIL-53 (Al). The monocarboxylic acid promoted crystallization and produced abundant crystal defects, which increased pore volume. Moreover, the competitive coordination between tetrafluoroterephthalic acid and 1,4-dicarboxybenzene was moderated by monocarboxylic modulators, significantly improving the hydrophobicity. The toluene uptake of the optimal sample reached 254.85 mg g-1 under humid conditions, increased by 33.56 % of MIL-53(Al), and the QWet /QDry (the ratio of adsorption quality under wet to adsorption quality under dry) was 0.92, remarkably surpassing that of origin MIL-53 (0.72). The recycle experiment showed superior reusability with no performance degradation after 10 recycle under RH=50 % (relative humidity). The adsorptive kinetic and thermodynamic analysis proves that the adsorption process is controlled by surface mono-layer adsorption and pore diffusion. The fluorine group affects the internal diffusion, which weakens the transfer rate. This strategy opens a new prospect of obtaining hierarchical functional MOFs for meeting the VOCs uptake under the practical application.

Abstract
A mechanistic understanding of metal-organic framework (MOF) synthesis and scale-up remains underexplored due to the complex nature of the interactions of their building blocks. In this work, we investigate the collective assembly of building units at the early stages of MOF nucleation, using MIL-101(Cr) as a prototypical example. Using large-scale molecular dynamics simulations, we observe that the choice of solvent (water and N,N-dimethylformamide), the introduction of ions (Na+ and F-) and the relative populations of MIL-101(Cr) half-secondary building unit (half-SBU) isomers have a strong influence on the cluster formation process. Additionally, the shape, size, nucleation and growth rates, crystallinity, and short and long-range order largely vary depending on the synthesis conditions. We evaluate these properties as they naturally emerge when interpreting the self-assembly of MOF nuclei as the time evolution of an undirected graph. Solution-induced conformational complexity and ionic concentration have a dramatic effect on the morphology of clusters emerging during assembly. While pure solvents lead to the rapid formation of a small number of large clusters, the presence of ions in aqueous solutions results in smaller clusters and slower nucleation. This diversity is captured by the key features of the graph representation. Principle component analysis on graph properties reveals that only a small number of molecular descriptors is needed to deconvolute MOF self-assembly. Descriptors such as the average coordination number between half-SBUs and fractal dimension are of particulalr interest as they can be can be followed experimentally by techniques like by time-resolved spectroscopy. Ultimately, graph theory emerges as an approach that can be used to understand complex processes revealing molecular descriptors accessible by both simulation and experiment.

Abstract
A biologically active agent based on a Zn-1,3,5-benzen tricarboxylic acid (Zn-BTC) framework incorporated into a chitosan (CS) biopolymer (Zn-BTC@CS) was successfully synthesized using a microwave irradiation technique. The synthesized Zn-BTC@CS was characterized using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the obtained data indicated a highly smooth surface morphology of the synthesized Zn-BTC and no morphological changes when the Zn-BTC covered the CS. In addition, the particle size diameter varied from 20 to 40 nm. XRD displayed a well-maintained Zn-BTC structure, and the crystal structure of Zn-BTC was not distorted by the composition of Zn-BTC and chitosan in the nanocomposite. Data from BET analysis revealed that the specific surface area of the Zn-BTC was reduced from 995.15 m2/g to 15.16 m2/g after coating with chitosan. The pore size distribution and pore volume of the Zn-BTC, Zn-BTC@CS were centered at 37.26 nm and at 22.5 nm, respectively. Zn-BTC@CS exhibited anticancer efficacy against lung and colon cancer cell lines. Zn-BTC@CS inhibited the proliferation of A549 and DLD-1 cancer cell lines in a dose-dependent manner with IC50 values of 13.2 and 19.8 µg/mL for the colon and lung cancer cell lines, respectively. Zn-BTC@CS stimulated the apoptotic process through up-regulating P53 expression and down-regulating Bcl-2 expression. Moreover, Zn-BTC@CS induced in vitro DNA fragmentation in both cancer cell lines with significantly different affinity by 66% (A549) and 20% (DLD-1) versus 52% reduction by Cisplatin. Zn-BTC@CS (IC50) exhibited anti-invasive activity and dramatically inhibited the migration of lung and colon cancer cell lines. This study provides evidence that Zn-BTC@CS targets the essential proteins involved in proliferation, metastasis, and apoptosis. Thus, Zn-BTC@CS has chemotherapeutic potential for inhibiting lung and colon cancer viability and growth.

Abstract
Accurately regulating the selectivity of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is crucial to renewable energy storage and utilization, but challenging. A flexible alteration of ORR pathways on atomically dispersed Zn sites towards high selectivity ORR can be achieved by tailoring the coordination environment of the catalytic centers. The atomically dispersed Zn catalysts with unique O- and C-coordination structure (ZnO3 C) or N-coordination structure (ZnN4 ) can be prepared by varying the functional groups of corresponding MOF precursors. The coordination environment of as-prepared atomically dispersed Zn catalysts was confirmed by X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFs). Notably, the ZnN4 catalyst processes a 4 e- ORR pathway to generate H2 O. However, controllably tailoring the coordination environment of atomically dispersed Zn sites, ZnO3 C catalyst processes a 2 e- ORR pathway to generate H2 O2 with a near zero overpotential and high selectivity in 0.1 M KOH. Calculations reveal that decreased electron density around Zn in ZnO3 C lowers the d-band center of Zn, thus changing the intermediate adsorption and contributing to the high selectivity towards 2 e- ORR.

Abstract
Soft matter covers a wide range of materials based on linear or branched polymers, gels and rubbers, amphiphilic (macro)molecules, colloids, and self-assembled structures. These materials have applications in various industries, all highly important for our daily life, and they control all biological functions; therefore, controlling and tailoring their properties is crucial. One way to approach this target is defect engineering, which aims to control defects in the material's structure, and/or to purposely add defects into it to trigger specific functions. While this approach has been a striking success story in crystalline inorganic hard matter, both for mechanical and electronic properties, and has also been applied to organic hard materials, defect engineering is rarely used in soft matter design. In this review, we present a survey on investigations on defects and/or defect engineering in nine classes of soft matter composed of liquid crystals, colloids, linear polymers with moderate degree of branching, hyperbranched polymers and dendrimers, conjugated polymers, polymeric networks, self-assembled amphiphiles and proteins, block copolymers and supramolecular polymers. This overview proposes a promising role of this approach for tuning the properties of soft matter.

Abstract
Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) is an accurate nondestructive method that requires a minimum of sample preparation and is employed to study porosity, morphology and hierarchical structures. Zeolites and silica are among the porous materials that are widely investigated by SAXS. However, studies of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are still scarce. In the present study, SAXS was employed to investigate meso- and microporous COFs, affording insightful information about their nanostructure textural properties. SAXS is especially useful when combined with other characterization techniques, such as powder X-ray diffraction and N2 adsorption isotherms, emerging as an efficient tool to further characterize COFs. For microporous COFs, SAXS was used mainly to obtain quantitative values of surface roughness as a function of fractal parameters, in all cases indicating surface fractals of the large-scale scattering object, namely the `grain'. Mesoporous COF studies allowed elucidation of their hexagonal structure on the basis of their structure peaks; however, the main result lies in the distinction between the pore and the grain, which are described as a hierarchical structure by the Beaucage model and evaluated according to their fractality. These COFs generally exhibit pores with mass fractal features and grains with surface fractal features when they are submitted to post-functionalization, which may be due to the poor diffusivity of the functionalizing agents into the pores. In addition, a proposed aggregation description of the porous scattering objects was envisioned, based on small-angle scattering premises, which was confirmed for a microporous COF by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy.

Abstract
Fluconazole and voriconazole are the two broad-spectrum triazole antifungals. The present work described the fabrication method for the synthesis of the amino-modified magnetic metal-organic framework. This material was applied as a pre-sample treatment sorbent for the selective extraction of fluconazole and voriconazole in rat plasma samples. The material was fabricated by the chemical bonding approach method and was characterized by different parameters. The factors which affect the extraction efficiency of the sorbent material were also optimized in this study. Due to the optimization of solid-phase extraction conditions, the nonspecific interaction was reduced and the extraction recoveries of target drugs were increased in plasma samples. The extraction method was combined with the HPLC-UV method for the analysis. Excellent linearity (0.1-25 µg/mL), detections (0.02, 0.03 µg/mL) and quantification limits (0.04, 0.05 µg/mL) were resulted for fluconazole and voriconazole respectively. The maximum recoveries from spiked plasma samples of fluconazole and voriconazole were 86.8% and 78.6% and relative standard deviation were 0.9-2.8% and 2.2-3.6% respectively. Moreover, this sorbent material was used multiple times which was an improvement over single-use commercial sorbent materials. This validated method has practical potential for the simultaneous determination of these drugs in therapeutic drug monitoring studies as well as for routine pharmacokinetic evaluations.

Abstract
In the past few years, defect-engineered metal-organic frameworks (DEMOFs) have been studied due to the plethora of textural, catalytic, or magnetic properties that can be enhanced by carefully introducing defect sites into the crystal lattices of MOFs. In this work, the spatial distribution of two different non-defective and defective linkers, namely 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate (BTC) and 5-cyano-1,3-benzenedicarboxylate (CYDC), respectively, has been studied in different DEMOF crystals of the HKUST-1 topology. Raman micro-spectroscopy revealed a nonhomogeneous distribution of defect sites within the [Cu3 (btc)2-x (cydc)x ] crystals, with the CYDC linker incorporated into defect-rich or defect-free areas of selected crystals. Additionally, advanced bulk techniques have shed light on the nature of the copper species, which is highly dynamic and directly affects the reactivity of the copper sites, as shown by probe molecule FTIR spectroscopy. Furthermore, electron microscopy revealed the effect of co-crystallizing CYDC and BTC on the crystal size and the formation of mesopores, further corroborated by X-ray scattering analysis. In this way we have demonstrated the necessity of utilizing micro-spectroscopy along with a whole array of bulk spectroscopic techniques to fully describe multicomponent metal-organic frameworks.

Abstract
In this work, micro-mesoporous UiO-66 was successfully prepared with P123 (EO20PO70EO20) as structure-directing agent by a simple solvothermal method. Adsorption/desorption kinetics of gaseous toluene over pristine UiO-66 and micro-mesoporous UiO-66 were investigated by breakthrough experiments, toluene vapor adsorption isotherm measurements and temperature programmed desorption (TPD) experiments. The interactions between toluene and UiO-66 samples were assessed through the Henry's law constant (KH) and the isosteric adsorption heat (ΔHads). The micro-mesoporous UiO-66 crystal demonstrated 2.6 times toluene adsorption capacity of the pristine UiO-66 when the P123/Zr4+ molar ratio was 0.2. Results showed that micropore adsorption was the main adsorption process and the larger pores in micro-mesoporous UiO-66 increased molecular diffusion rate and reduced the mass transfer resistance. This result indicated that micro-mesoporous structures and defect sites had a positive effect on toluene molecules capture. The breakthrough times and the working capacities decreased with the increase of the relative humidity and adsorption temperature. A good thermal stability and reproducibility were revealed over the micro-mesoporous UiO-66 in this paper.

Abstract
Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are good absorbents that provide high specific surface area, modified pore surface and controllable pore size. The aim of this work is to prepare a MOFs material with good toluene adsorption property in the presence of water. In this paper, modified UiO-66 (University of Oslo 66) was successfully synthesized with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as structure-directing agent by a simple solvothermal method. The physical and chemical properties were obtained by a series of characterization instruments. Some missing-linker defect sites were observed on modified materials (defective UiO-66) and were known as the main active sites for toluene adsorption. The defective UiO-66 (PVP-U-0.5, 259 mg g-1) demonstrated 1.7 times toluene adsorption capacity of the pristine UiO-66 (151 mg g-1) when the PVP/Zr4+ ratio was 0.5. The interactions between toluene and UiO-66 and PVP-U-0.5 were assessed through the Henry's law constant (KH) and the isosteric adsorption heat (ΔHads), which indicated that stronger interaction between PVP-U-0.5 and toluene molecules. Moreover, PVP-U-0.5 displayed good adsorption capacity (84 mg g-1) at high relative humidity (70% RH). Water temperature programmed desorption experiments revealed that PVP-U-0.5 had more hydrophobic property, which provided a further possibility for practical application for the removal of toluene.

Abstract
The liquid and glass states of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have recently become of interest due to the potential for liquid-phase separations and ion transport, alongside the fundamental nature of the latter as a new, fourth category of melt-quenched glass. Here we show that the MOF liquid state can be blended with another MOF component, resulting in a domain structured MOF glass with a single, tailorable glass transition. Intra-domain connectivity and short range order is confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and pair distribution function measurements. The interfacial binding between MOF domains in the glass state is evidenced by electron tomography, and the relationship between domain size and Tg investigated. Nanoindentation experiments are also performed to place this new class of MOF materials into context with organic blends and inorganic alloys.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have proven to be an interesting class of sacrificial precursors of functional inorganic materials for catalysis, energy storage, and conversion applications. However, the controlled synthesis of MOF-derived materials with desirable compositions, structures, and properties still remains a big challenge. Herein, we propose a post-solvothermal route for the outer-to-inner loss of organic linkers from MOF, which is simple, rapid, and controllable and can be operated at temperature much lower than that of the commonly adopted pyrolysis method. By such a strategy, the MIL-125-NH2 particles coated by TiO2 nanosheets were produced, and the thickness of TiO2 shell can be easily tuned. The MIL-125-NH2@TiO2 core-shell particles combine the advantages of highly active TiO2 nanosheets, MIL-125-NH2 photosensitizer, plenty of linker defects and oxygen vacancies, and mesoporous structure, which allows them to be utilized as photocatalysts for the visible-light-driven hydrogen production reaction. It is remarkable that the hydrogen evolution rate by MIL-125-NH2@TiO2 can be enhanced 70 times compared with the pristine MIL-125-NH2. Such a route can be easily applied to the synthesis of different kinds of MOF-derived functional materials.

Abstract
The difficulty of obtaining large single crystals of aluminum carboxylate metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for structure determinations has limited the development of these water and thermally stable MOFs. Herein, how large single crystals of known MIL-53(Al) and the first two tetrahedral ligand-based, visible-light-absorbing 3D Al-MOFs, [Al3 (OH)3 (HTCS)2 ] (AlTCS-1) and [Al5 O2 (OH)3 (TCS)2 (H2 O)2 ] (AlTCS-2; TCS=tetrakis(4-oxycarbonylphenyl)silane), are obtained in the presence of hydrofluoric or formic acid for conventional single-crystal diffraction measurements is presented. The technique of obtaining those single crystals has potential to be a general method for obtaining large and good-quality single crystals of Al-MOFs. AlTCS-1 and -2 are stable over a wide pH range (1-11), and AlTCS-1 is even stable in aqua regia solution for at least 24 h. The BET specific surface areas of AlTCS-1 and -2 are 11 and 1506 m2 g-1 , respectively. AlTCS-2 takes up 51 cm3 (STP) g-1 CO2 and 15 cm3 (STP) g-1 CH4 at 298 K and 1 bar, which is relatively high among MOF materials. AlTCS-1 takes up 30 cm3 g-1 CO2 and 4.2 cm3 g-1 CH4 at 298 K and 1 bar. The rapid and stable photocurrent responses of AlTCS-1 and -2 under UV and visible-light illumination are observed. Moreover, AlTCS-1 photocatalyzes the water-splitting reaction under visible light with an average hydrogen evolution efficiency of 50 μmol g-1 h-1 for the first 10 h in a mixture of water and triethanolamine.

Abstract
We report a new strategy for the synthesis of robust hierarchical micro- and mesoporous MOFs from water stable MOFs via a selective acid etching process. The process is controlled by the size-selective diffusion of acid molecules through the MOF windows. This method enables the fine-tuning of the porosity of hierarchical MOFs, allowing for the generation of well-defined mesopores with high mesopore volume. Because of the size-selective diffusion of acid molecules, the inherent crystallinity and external morphology of the resulting MOFs are well-maintained after acid treatment. This novel strategy may provide an alternative route towards the synthesis of diverse hierarchical MOFs.

Abstract
Defect engineering in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is an exciting concept for tailoring material properties, which opens up novel opportunities not only in sorption and catalysis, but also in controlling more challenging physical characteristics such as band gap as well as magnetic and electrical/conductive properties. It is challenging to structurally characterize the inherent or intentionally created defects of various types, and there have so far been few efforts to comprehensively discuss these issues. Based on selected reports spanning the last decades, this Review closes that gap by providing both a concise overview of defects in MOFs, or more broadly coordination network compounds (CNCs), including their classification and characterization, together with the (potential) applications of defective CNCs/MOFs. Moreover, we will highlight important aspects of "defect-engineering" concepts applied for CNCs, also in comparison with relevant solid materials such as zeolites or COFs. Finally, we discuss the future potential of defect-engineered CNCs.

Abstract
The mesoporous metal-organic frameworks are a family of materials that have pore sizes ranging from 2 to 50 nm, which have shown promising applications in catalysis, adsorption, chemical sensing and so on. The preparation of mesoporous metal-organic frameworks usually needs the supramolecular or cooperative template strategy. Here we report the template-free assembly of mesoporous metal-organic frameworks by using CO2-expanded liquids as switchable solvents. The mesocellular metal-organic frameworks with large mesopores (13-23 nm) are formed, and their porosity properties can be easily adjusted by controlling CO2 pressure. Moreover, the use of CO2 can accelerate the reaction for metal-organic framework formation from metal salt and organic linker due to the viscosity-lowering effect of CO2, and the product can be recovered through CO2 extraction. The as-synthesized mesocellular metal-organic frameworks are highly active in catalysing the aerobic oxidation of benzylic alcohols under mild temperature at atmospheric pressure.

At the beginning, the scattering process is introduced in a general way and then a differentiation between crystalline samples and amorphous samples is made, leading to the Bragg equation or to the Debye equation and to the Pair Distribution Function (PDF) approach, respectively. Advantages and disadvantages of the use of X‐rays or neutrons for scattering experiments are underlined. The basics of Extended X‐ray Absorption Fine Structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy are also reported. Starting from these basics, five examples have been selected from the recent literature where the concepts described in the first didactic part have been applied to the understanding of the structure of different MOFs materials.
