Abstract
One-step purification of ethylene (C2H4) from ternary C2 hydrocarbon mixtures is a crucial task and an enduring challenge because of their similar molecular size and physical properties. Owing to their intriguing structural dynamics, flexible MOFs have attracted more attention for gas adsorption and separation. Herein, we report a flexible MOF FJI-W-66 that exhibits rarely seen "breathing" behaviors for C2 hydrocarbons. Upon activation, the channels of guest-free FJI-W-66a significantly contract to a nearly closed-pore state. FJI-W-66a shows the stepwise adsorption isotherms for C2 hydrocarbons, which suggests the occurrence of structural transformation between less open and more open phases. Breakthrough experiments provide evidence that FJI-W-66a can selectively separate C2H4 from C2H2/C2H4/C2H6 mixtures with different ratios under ambient conditions, realizing the one-step acquisition of C2H4 from ternary C2 hydrocarbons.

Abstract
We report that linker ligand substitution involving just one atom induces a shape-memory effect in a flexible coordination network. Specifically, whereas SIFSIX-23-Cu, [Cu(SiF6 )(L)2 ]n , (L=1,4-bis(1-imidazolyl)benzene, SiF6 2- =SIFSIX) has been previously reported to exhibit reversible switching between closed and open phases, the activated phase of SIFSIX-23-CuN , [Cu(SiF6 )(LN )2 ]n (LN =2,5-bis(1-imidazolyl)pyridine), transformed to a kinetically stable porous phase with strong affinity for CO2 . As-synthesized SIFSIX-23-CuN , α, transformed to less open, γ, and closed, β, phases during activation. β did not adsorb N2 (77 K), rather it reverted to α induced by CO2 at 195, 273 and 298 K. CO2 desorption resulted in α', a shape-memory phase which subsequently exhibited type-I isotherms for N2 (77 K) and CO2 as well as strong performance for separation of CO2 /N2 (15/85) at 298 K and 1 bar driven by strong binding (Qst =45-51 kJ/mol) and excellent CO2 /N2 selectivity (up to 700). Interestingly, α' reverted to β after re-solvation/desolvation. Molecular simulations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations provide insight into the properties of SIFSIX-23-CuN .

Abstract
Flue gas desulfurization is crucial for both human health and ecological environments. However, developing efficient SO2 adsorbents that can break the trade-off between adsorption capacity and selectivity is still challenging. In this work, a new type of fluorinated anion-pillared metal-organic frameworks (APMOFs) with a pillar-cage structure is fabricated through pillar-embedding into a highly porous and robust framework. This type of APMOFs comprises smaller tetrahedral cages and larger icosahedral cages interconnected by embedded [NbOF5 ]2- and [TaOF5 ]2- anions acting as pillars. The APMOFs exhibits high porosity and density of fluorinated anions, ensuring exceptional SO2 adsorption capacity and ultrahigh selectivity for SO2 /CO2 and SO2 /N2 gas mixtures. Furthermore, these two structures demonstrate excellent stability towards water, acid/alkali, and SO2 adsorption. Cycle dynamic breakthrough experiments confirm the excellent separation performance of SO2 /CO2 gas mixtures and their cyclic stability. SO2 -loaded single-crystal X-ray diffraction, Grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations combined with density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal the preferred adsorption domains for SO2 molecules. The multiple-site host-guest and guest-guest interactions facilitate selective recognition and dense packing of SO2 in this hybrid porous material. This work will be instructive for designing porous materials for flue gas desulfurization and other gas-purification processes.

Crossover Sorption of C 2 H 2 /CO 2 and C 2 H 6 /C 2 H 4 in Soft Porous Coordination Networks. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2023; 62:e202308438.

Abstract
Porous sorbents are materials that are used for various applications, including storage and separation. Typically, the uptake of a single gas by a sorbent decreases with temperature, but the relative affinity for two similar gases does not change. However, in this study, we report a rare example of "crossover sorption," in which the uptake capacity and apparent affinity for two similar gases reverse at different temperatures. We synthesized two soft porous coordination polymers (PCPs), [Zn2 (L1)(L2)2 ]n (PCP-1) and [Zn2 (L1)(L3)2 ]n (PCP-2) (L1= 1,4-bis(4-pyridyl)benzene, L2=5-methyl-1,3-di(4-carboxyphenyl)benzene, and L3=5-methoxy-1,3-di(4-carboxyphenyl)benzene). These PCPs exhibits structural changes upon gas sorption and show the crossover sorption for both C2 H2 /CO2 and C2 H6 /C2 H4 , in which the apparent affinity reverse with temperature. We used in situ gas-loading single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) analysis to reveal the guest inclusion structures of PCP-1 for C2 H2 , CO2 , C2 H6 , and C2 H4 gases at various temperatures. Interestingly, we observed three-step single-crystal to single-crystal (sc-sc) transformations with the different loading phases under these gases, providing insight into guest binding positions, nature of host-guest or guest-guest interactions, and their phase transformations upon exposure to these gases. Combining with theoretical investigation, we have fully elucidated the crossover sorption in the flexible coordination networks, which involves a reversal of apparent affinity and uptake of similar gases at different temperatures. We discovered that this behaviour can be explained by the delicate balance between guest binding and host-guest and guest-guest interactions.

Abstract
Ultramicroporous materials can be highly effective at trace gas separations when they offer a high density of selective binding sites. Herein, we report that sql-NbOFFIVE-bpe-Cu, a new variant of a previously reported ultramicroporous square lattice, sql, topology material, sql-SIFSIX-bpe-Zn, can exist in two polymorphs. These polymorphs, sql-NbOFFIVE-bpe-Cu-AA (AA) and sql-NbOFFIVE-bpe-Cu-AB (AB), exhibit AAAA and ABAB packing of the sql layers, respectively. Whereas NbOFFIVE-bpe-Cu-AA (AA) is isostructural with sql-SIFSIX-bpe-Zn, each exhibiting intrinsic 1D channels, sql-NbOFFIVE-bpe-Cu-AB (AB) has two types of channels, the intrinsic channels and extrinsic channels between the sql networks. Gas and temperature induced transformations of the two polymorphs of sql-NbOFFIVE-bpe-Cu were investigated by pure gas sorption, single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD), variable temperature powder X-ray diffraction (VT-PXRD), and synchrotron PXRD. We observed that the extrinsic pore structure of AB resulted in properties with potential for selective C3H4/C3H6 separation. Subsequent dynamic gas breakthrough measurements revealed exceptional experimental C3H4/C3H6 selectivity (270) and a new benchmark for productivity (118 mmol g-1) of polymer grade C3H6 (purity >99.99%) from a 1:99 C3H4/C3H6 mixture. Structural analysis, gas sorption studies, and gas adsorption kinetics enabled us to determine that a binding "sweet spot" for C3H4 in the extrinsic pores is behind the benchmark separation performance. Density-functional theory (DFT) calculations and Canonical Monte Carlo (CMC) simulations provided further insight into the binding sites of C3H4 and C3H6 molecules within these two hybrid ultramicroporous materials, HUMs. These results highlight, to our knowledge for the first time, how pore engineering through the study of packing polymorphism in layered materials can dramatically change the separation performance of a physisorbent.

Abstract
In this work, we present the first metal-organic framework (MOF) platform with a self-penetrated double diamondoid (ddi) topology that exhibits switching between closed (nonporous) and open (porous) phases induced by exposure to gases. A crystal engineering strategy, linker ligand substitution, was used to control gas sorption properties for CO2 and C3 gases. Specifically, bimbz (1,4-bis(imidazol-1-yl)benzene) in the coordination network X-ddi-1-Ni ([Ni2(bimbz)2(bdc)2(H2O)]n, H2bdc = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid) was replaced by bimpz (3,6-bis(imidazol-1-yl)pyridazine) in X-ddi-2-Ni ([Ni2(bimpz)2(bdc)2(H2O)]n). In addition, the 1:1 mixed crystal X-ddi-1,2-Ni ([Ni2(bimbz)(bimpz)(bdc)2(H2O)]n) was prepared and studied. All three variants form isostructural closed (β) phases upon activation which each exhibited different reversible properties upon exposure to CO2 at 195 K and C3 gases at 273 K. For CO2, X-ddi-1-Ni revealed incomplete gate-opening, X-ddi-2-Ni exhibited a stepped isotherm with saturation uptake of 3.92 mol·mol-1, and X-ddi-1,2-Ni achieved up to 62% more gas uptake and a distinct isotherm shape vs the parent materials. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) and in situ powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) experiments provided insight into the mechanisms of phase transformation and revealed that the β phases are nonporous with unit cell volumes 39.9, 40.8, and 41.0% lower than the corresponding as-synthesized α phases, X-ddi-1-Ni-α, X-ddi-2-Ni-α, and X-ddi-1,2-Ni-α, respectively. The results presented herein represent the first report of reversible switching between closed and open phases in ddi topology coordination networks and further highlight how ligand substitution can profoundly impact the gas sorption properties of switching sorbents.

Abstract
Coordination networks (CNs) that undergo gas-induced transformation from closed (nonporous) to open (porous) structures are of potential utility in gas storage applications, but their development is hindered by limited control over their switching mechanisms and pressures. In this work, we report two CNs, [Co(bimpy)(bdc)]n (X-dia-4-Co) and [Co(bimbz)(bdc)]n (X-dia-5-Co) (H2bdc = 1,4-benzendicarboxylic acid; bimpy = 2,5-bis(1H-imidazole-1-yl)pyridine; bimbz = 1,4-bis(1H-imidazole-1-yl)benzene), that both undergo transformation from closed to isostructural open phases involving at least a 27% increase in cell volume. Although X-dia-4-Co and X-dia-5-Co only differ from one another by one atom in their N-donor linkers (bimpy = pyridine, and bimbz = benzene), this results in different pore chemistry and switching mechanisms. Specifically, X-dia-4-Co exhibited a gradual phase transformation with a steady increase in the uptake when exposed to CO2, whereas X-dia-5-Co exhibited a sharp step (type F-IV isotherm) at P/P0 ≈ 0.008 or P ≈ 3 bar (195 or 298 K, respectively). Single-crystal X-ray diffraction, in situ powder XRD, in situ IR, and modeling (density functional theory calculations, and canonical Monte Carlo simulations) studies provide insights into the nature of the switching mechanisms and enable attribution of pronounced differences in sorption properties to the changed pore chemistry.

Abstract
Flexible metal-organic materials that exhibit stimulus-responsive switching between closed (non-porous) and open (porous) structures induced by gas molecules are of potential utility in gas storage and separation. Such behaviour is currently limited to a few dozen physisorbents that typically switch through a breathing mechanism requiring structural contortions. Here we show a clathrate (non-porous) coordination network that undergoes gas-induced switching between multiple non-porous phases through transient porosity, which involves the diffusion of guests between discrete voids through intra-network distortions. This material is synthesized as a clathrate phase with solvent-filled cavities; evacuation affords a single-crystal to single-crystal transformation to a phase with smaller cavities. At 298 K, carbon dioxide, acetylene, ethylene and ethane induce reversible switching between guest-free and gas-loaded clathrate phases. For carbon dioxide and acetylene at cryogenic temperatures, phases showing progressively higher loadings were observed and characterized using in situ X-ray diffraction, and the mechanism of diffusion was computationally elucidated.

Cooperative CO 2 adsorption mechanism in a perfluorinated Ce IV-based metal organic framework. JOURNAL OF MATERIALS CHEMISTRY. A 2023; 11:5568-5583.

Abstract
Adsorbents able to uptake large amounts of gases within a narrow range of pressure, i.e., phase-change adsorbents, are emerging as highly interesting systems to achieve excellent gas separation performances with little energy input for regeneration. A recently discovered phase-change metal-organic framework (MOF) adsorbent is F4_MIL-140A(Ce), based on CeIV and tetrafluoroterephthalate. This MOF displays a non-hysteretic step-shaped CO2 adsorption isotherm, reaching saturation in conditions of temperature and pressure compatible with real life application in post-combustion carbon capture, biogas upgrading and acetylene purification. Such peculiar behaviour is responsible for the exceptional CO2/N2 selectivity and reverse CO2/C2H2 selectivity of F4_MIL-140A(Ce). Here, we combine data obtained from a wide pool of characterisation techniques - namely gas sorption analysis, in situ infrared spectroscopy, in situ powder X-ray diffraction, in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy, multinuclear solid state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and adsorption microcalorimetry - with periodic density functional theory simulations to provide evidence for the existence of a unique cooperative CO2 adsorption mechanism in F4_MIL-140A(Ce). Such mechanism involves the concerted rotation of perfluorinated aromatic rings when a threshold partial pressure of CO2 is reached, opening the gate towards an adsorption site where CO2 interacts with both open metal sites and the fluorine atoms of the linker.

Abstract
Developing practical storage technologies for acetylene (C2 H2 ) is important but challenging because C2 H2 is useful but explosive. Here, a novel metal-organic framework (MOF) (FJI-H36) with adaptive channels was prepared. It can effectively capture C2 H2 (159.9 cm3 cm-3 ) at 1 atm and 298 K, possessing a record-high storage density (561 g L-1 ) but a very low adsorption enthalpy (28 kJ mol-1 ) among all the reported MOFs. Structural analyses show that such excellent adsorption performance comes from the synergism of active sites, flexible framework, and matched pores; where the adsorbed-C2 H2 can drive FJI-H36 to undergo induced-fit transformations step by step, including deformation/reconstruction of channels, contraction of pores, and transformation of active sites, finally leading to dense packing of C2 H2 . Moreover, FJI-H36 has excellent chemical stability and recyclability, and can be prepared on a large scale, enabling it as a practical adsorbent for C2 H2 . This will provide a useful strategy for developing practical and efficient adsorbents for C2 H2 storage.

Abstract
Reversible phase transformations (RPTs) of metal-organic frameworks not only create material diversity but also promise a self-restoration of crystals in a controllable manner. However, there are only limited examples because seeking for a convenient and effective trigger for RPTs, especially for RPTs with respect to spatiotemporal harmony in cleavage and reconstruction of metal-linker chemical bonds, is challenging. In this work, we found that zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF)-108 with Zn-N coordination bonds showing moderate strength was an ideal platform. We reported three crystal phases of ZIF-108, namely, sodalite (SOD), diamondoid (DIA), and large pore_sodalite (lp_SOD) topologies, and identified RPTs between phases: (1) when exposed to water or water vapor, the SOD structure could transform to a compact DIA version as a result of the decomposition of four-membered rings and synchronous reorganization of six-membered rings. Then, the DIA structure could also return back to SOD when soaked in dimethylformamide (DMF) or DMF vapor. (2) High-temperature treatment of SOD gives rise to lp_SOD, which then reverts to SOD by DMF. (3) lp_SOD could also be compressed into the DIA phase by water or water vapor and can then be restored via a two-step treatment, namely, soaking in DMF (DIA → SOD) right before a high-temperature therapy (SOD → lp_SOD). From the perspective of the separation utility, we found that the lp_SOD version of ZIF-108, relative to SOD-structured ZIF-108, can produce mixed matrix membranes having an interesting interfacial structure with the polymer chains, though both share the same chemical composition. We verified that the large pore of lp_SOD can allow being penetrated by polymer chains, which contributed to not only reinforcing the bi-phase interface but also sharpening the molecule sieve properties of fillers toward CO2 and CH4.

Abstract
Fluorinated metal-organic frameworks (F-MOFs) as fast-growing porous materials have revolutionized the field of gas separation due to their tunable pore apertures, appealing chemical features, and excellent stability. A deep understanding of their structure-performance relationships is critical for the synthesis and development of new F-MOFs. This critical review has focused on several strategies for the precise design and synthesis of new F-MOFs with structures tuned for specific gas separation purposes. First, the basic principles and concepts of F-MOFs as well as their structure, synthesis and modification and their structure to property relationships are studied. Then, applications of F-MOFs in adsorption and membrane gas separation are discussed. A detailed account of the design and capabilities of F-MOFs for the adsorption of various gases and the governing principles is provided. In addition, the exceptional characteristics of highly stable F-MOFs with engineered pore size and tuned structures are put into perspective to fabricate selective membranes for gas separation. Systematic analysis of the position of F-MOFs in gas separation revealed that F-MOFs are benchmark materials in most of the challenging gas separations. The outlook and future directions of the science and engineering of F-MOFs and their challenges are highlighted to tackle the issues of overcoming the trade-off between capacity/permeability and selectivity for a serious move towards industrialization.

Abstract
Coordination states of metal‐organic materials are known to dictate their physicochemical properties and applications in various fields. However, understanding and controlling coordination sites in metal‐organic systems is challenging. Herein, we report the synthesis of site‐selective coordinated metal‐phenolic networks (MPNs) using flavonoids as coordination modulators. The site‐selective coordination was systematically investigated experimentally and computationally using ligands with one, two, and multiple different coordination sites. Tuning the multimodal Fe coordination with catechol, carbonyl, and hydroxyl groups within the MPNs enabled the facile engineering of diverse physicochemical properties including size, selective permeability (20–2000 kDa), and pH‐dependent degradability. This study expands our understanding of metal‐phenolic chemistry and provides new routes for the rational design of structurally tailorable coordination‐based materials.

Abstract
The ability of flexible porous coordination polymers (PCPs) to change their structure in response to various stimuli has not been exploited in the design of tunable-selectivity catalysts. Herein, we make use of this ability and prepare nitroxyl radical-containing flexible PCP that can reversibly switch between large- and contracted-pore configurations in response to solvent change and thus promote the controllable size-selective aerobic oxidation of alcohols.

Abstract
Separation of xenon/krypton gas mixtures is one of the valuable but challenging processes in the gas industries due to their close molecular size and similar physical properties. Here, we report a novel ultramicroporous hydrogen-bonded organic framework (termed as HOF-40) constructed from a cyano-based organic building unit of 1,2,4,5-tetrakis(4-cyanophenyl)benzene (TCPB), exhibiting superior separation performance for Xe/Kr mixtures, as clearly demonstrated by dynamic breakthrough curves. GCMC simulation results indicate that the pore confinement effect and abundant accessible binding sites play a synergistic role in this challenging gas separation. Furthermore, this cyano-based HOF displays excellent chemical stability from 12 M HCl to 20 M NaOH aqueous solutions.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), as an emerging class of porous materials, excel in designability, regulatability, and modifiability in terms of their composition, topology, pore size, and surface chemistry, thus affording a huge potential for addressing environment and energy-related challenges. In particular, MOFs can be applied as porous adsorbents for the purification of industrially important hydrocarbons through certain process-efficient separation schemes based on selectivity-reversed adsorption and multicomponent separation. Moreover, the vast combination possibilities and controllable and engineerable luminescent units of MOFs make them a versatile platform to develop functionally tailored materials for luminescent sensing and optical data encryption. In this feature article, we summarize the recent progress in the use of porous MOFs for the separation and purification of acetylene (C2H2) and ethylene (C2H4) based on selectivity-reversed adsorption and multicomponent separation strategies. Moreover, we highlight the advances over the past three years in the field of MOF-based luminescent materials for thermometry, turn-on sensing, and information encryption.

Abstract
Xylene isomers are crucial chemical intermediates in great demand worldwide; the almost identical physicochemical properties render their current separation approach energy consuming. In this study, we utilized the soft porous coordination polymer (PCP)'s isomer-specific structural transformation, realizing o-xylene (oX) recognition/separation from the binary and ternary isomer mixtures. This PCP has a flexible structure that contains flexible aromatic pendant groups, which both work as recognition sites and induce structural flexibility of the global framework. The PCP exhibits guest-triggered "breathing"-type structural changes, which are accompanied by the rearrangement of the intraframework π-π interaction. By rebuilding π-π stacking with isomer species, the PCP discriminated oX from the other isomers by its specific guest-loading configuration and separated oX from the isomer mixture via selective adsorption. The xylene-selective property of the PCP is dependent on the solvent; in diluted hexane solution, the PCP favors p-xylene (pX) uptake. The separation results combined with crystallographic analyses revealed the effect of the isomer selectivity of the PCP on xylene isomer separation via structural transition and demonstrated its potential as a versatile selective adsorptive medium for challenging separations.

Abstract
Coordination networks (CNs) are a class of (usually) crystalline solids typically comprised of metal ions or cluster nodes linked into 2 or 3 dimensions by organic and/or inorganic linker ligands. Whereas CNs tend to exhibit rigid structures and permanent porosity as exemplified by most metal-organic frameworks, MOFs, there exists a small but growing class of CNs that can undergo extreme, reversible structural transformation(s) when exposed to gases, vapours or liquids. These "soft" or "stimuli-responsive" CNs were introduced two decades ago and are attracting increasing attention thanks to two features: the amenability of CNs to design from first principles, thereby enabling crystal engineering of families of related CNs; and the potential utility of soft CNs for adsorptive storage and separation. A small but growing subset of soft CNs exhibit reversible phase transformations between nonporous (closed) and porous (open) structures. These "switching CNs" are distinguished by stepped sorption isotherms coincident with phase transformation and, perhaps counterintuitively, they can exhibit benchmark properties with respect to working capacity (storage) and selectivity (separation). This review addresses fundamental and applied aspects of switching CNs through surveying their sorption properties, analysing the structural transformations that enable switching, discussing structure-function relationships and presenting design principles for crystal engineering of the next generation of switching CNs.

Abstract
While metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are at the forefront of cutting-edge porous materials, extraordinary sorption properties can also be observed in Prussian Blue Analogs (PBAs) and related materials comprising extremely short bridging ligands. Herein, we present a bimetallic nonporous cyanide-bridged coordination polymer (CP) {[Mn(imH)]2[Mo(CN)8]} n (1Mn; imH = imidazole) that can efficiently and reversibly capture and release water molecules over tens of cycles without any fatigue despite being based on one of the shortest bridging ligands known - the cyanide. The sorption performance of {[Mn(imH)]2[Mo(CN)8]} n matches or even outperforms MOFs that are typically selected for water harvesting applications with perfect sorption reversibility and very low desorption temperatures. Water sorption in 1Mn is possible due to the breathing effect (accompanied by a dramatic cyanide-framework transformation) occurring in three well-defined steps between four different crystal phases studied structurally by X-ray diffraction structural analysis. Moreover, the capture of H2O by 1Mn switches the EPR signal intensity of the MnII centres, which has been demonstrated by in situ EPR measurements and enables monitoring of the hydration level of 1Mn by EPR. The sorption of water in 1Mn controls also its photomagnetic behavior at the cryogenic regime, thanks to the presence of the [MoIV(CN)8]4- photomagnetic chromophore in the structure. These observations demonstrate the extraordinary sorption potential of cyanide-bridged CPs and the possibility to merge it with the unique physical properties of this class of compounds arising from their bimetallic character (e.g. photomagnetism and long-range magnetic ordering).

Abstract
Ethylene production from oxidative coupling of methane is a sustainable and economically attractive alternative to that through traditional hydrocarbon cracking technology. However, efficient ethylene separation from the complex reaction mixture is a daunting challenge that hinders the practical adoption of this technology. Herein, we report the efficient adsorptive separation of the CH4/CO2/C2H4/C2H6 mixture using three representative metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) (UTSA-74, MOF-74, and HKUST-1) with diverse open metal sites. The efficient separation relies on tuning the selectivity through the convergence of characteristics including Lewis acidity of open metal sites, pore space, and cooperative binding behavior. The separation performance of these materials has been evaluated through single-component gas adsorption and dynamic breakthrough experiments. HKUST-1 provides the highest separation potential (4.1 mmol/g) thanks to its simultaneously high ideal adsorbed solution theory (IAST) selectivity and ethylene adsorption capacity, representing a benchmark material for such a challenging quaternary separation.

Abstract
Xylene isomer separation is considered one of the seven separation challenges that changed the world. In addition, the high-energy demand of xylene separation highlights the need for efficient novel adsorbents. Herein, the liquid-phase separation potential of the anion-pillared hybrid material SIFSIX-1-Cu was studied for preferential adsorption of o-xylene and m-xylene over p-xylene, which was inspired by a previous complexation crystallization method for separating m-xylene. We report detailed experimental liquid-phase adsorption experiments, yielding selectivities of 3.0 for o-xylene versus p-xylene and 2.6 for m-xylene versus p-xylene. Our theoretical calculations thus provide a reasonable explanation that the xylene adsorption selectivity is attributed to the C-H⋅⋅⋅F interaction, and the host-guest interaction order agrees with the adsorption priority: o-xylene > m-xylene > p-xylene.

Abstract
The construction of three-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (3D COFs) has proven to be very challenging, as their synthetic driving force mainly comes from the formation of covalent bonds. To facilitate the synthesis, rigid building blocks are always the first choice for designing 3D COFs. In principle, it should be very appealing to construct 3D COFs from flexible building blocks, but there are some obstacles blocking the development of such systems, especially for the designed synthesis and structure determination. Herein, we reported a novel highly crystalline 3D COF (FCOF-5) with flexible C-O single bonds in the building block backbone. By merging 17 continuous rotation electron diffraction data sets, we successfully determined the crystal structure of FCOF-5 to be a 6-fold interpenetrated pts topology. Interestingly, FCOF-5 is flexible and can undergo reversible expansion/contraction upon vapor adsorption/desorption, indicating a breathing motion. Moreover, a smart soft polymer composite film with FCOF-5 was fabricated, which can show a reversible vapor-triggered shape transformation. Therefore, 3D COFs constructed from flexible building blocks can exhibit interesting breathing behavior, and finally, a totally new type of soft porous crystals made of pure organic framework was announced.

Abstract

Three-dimensional
(3D) covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are rare
because there is a limited choice of organic building blocks that
offer multiple reactive sites in a polyhedral geometry. Here, we synthesized
an organic cage molecule (Cage-6-NH2) that was used as a triangular prism node to yield the first
cage-based 3D COF, 3D-CageCOF-1. This COF adopts an unreported
2-fold interpenetrated acs topology and exhibits reversible
dynamic behavior, switching between a small-pore (sp)
structure and a large-pore (lp) structure. It also shows
high CO2 uptake and captures water at low humidity (<40%).
This demonstrates the potential for expanding the structural complexity
of 3D COFs by using organic cages as the building units.
