Abstract
A series of metal-organic frameworks (1-XDI) have been synthesized by imide condensation reactions between an amine-functionalized pentanuclear zinc cluster, Zn4Cl5(bt-NH2)6, (bt-NH2 = 5-aminobenzotriazolate), and organic dianhydrides (pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA), naphthalenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (NDA), 3,3',4,4'-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (BPDA) and 4,4'-(hexafluoroisopropylidene)diphthalic anhydride (HFIPA)). The properties of the 1-XDI MOFs have been compared with analogues (2-XDI) prepared using traditional coordination assembly. The resulting materials have been characterized by ATR-IR spectroscopy, acid-digested 1H NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and gas adsorption measurements. N2 adsorption isotherm data reveal modest porosities and BET surface areas (30-552 m2 g-1). All of the new 1-XDI and 2-XDI MOFs show selective adsorption of C2H2 over CO2 while 2-PMDI and 2-BPDI exhibit high selectivity toward C3H6/C3H8 separation. This study establishes imide condensation of preformed metal-organic clusters with organic linkers as a viable route for MOF design.

Abstract
In NH3 capture technologies, the desorption process is usually driven by high temperature and low pressure (such as 150-200 °C under vacuum), which accounts for intensive energy consumption and CO2 emission. Developing light responsive adsorbent is promising in this regard but remains a great challenge. Here, we for the first time designed and synthesized a light responsive azophenol-containing covalent organic framework (COF), COF-HNU38, to address this challenge. We found that at 25 °C and 1.0 bar, the cis -COF exhibited a NH3 uptake capacity of 7.7 mmol g-1 and a NH3/N2 selectivity of 158. In the adsorbed NH3, about 29.0 % could be removed by vis-light irradiated cis-trans isomerization at 25 °C, and the remaining NH3 might be released at 25 °C under vacuum. Almost no decrease in adsorption capacity was observed after eight adsorption-desorption cycles. As such, an efficient NH3 capture and low energy release strategy was established thanks to the multiple hydrogen bond interactions (which are strong in total but weak in individuals) between NH3 and the smart COF, as well as the increased polarity and number of hydrogen bond sites after the trans-cis isomerization.

Abstract
Porous solids can accommodate and release molecular hydrogen readily, making them attractive for minimizing the energy requirements for hydrogen storage relative to physical storage systems. However, H2 adsorption enthalpies in such materials are generally weak (-3 to -7 kJ/mol), lowering capacities at ambient temperature. Metal-organic frameworks with well-defined structures and synthetic modularity could allow for tuning adsorbent-H2 interactions for ambient-temperature storage. Recently, Cu2.2Zn2.8Cl1.8(btdd)3 (H2btdd = bis(1H-1,2,3-triazolo-[4,5-b],[4',5'-i])dibenzo[1,4]dioxin; CuI-MFU-4l) was reported to show a large H2 adsorption enthalpy of -32 kJ/mol owing to π-backbonding from CuI to H2, exceeding the optimal binding strength for ambient-temperature storage (-15 to -25 kJ/mol). Toward realizing optimal H2 binding, we sought to modulate the π-backbonding interactions by tuning the pyramidal geometry of the trigonal CuI sites. A series of isostructural frameworks, Cu2.7M2.3X1.3(btdd)3 (M = Mn, Cd; X = Cl, I; CuIM-MFU-4l), was synthesized through postsynthetic modification of the corresponding materials M5X4(btdd)3 (M = Mn, Cd; X = CH3CO2, I). This strategy adjusts the H2 adsorption enthalpy at the CuI sites according to the ionic radius of the central metal ion of the pentanuclear cluster node, leading to -33 kJ/mol for M = ZnII (0.74 Å), -27 kJ/mol for M = MnII (0.83 Å), and -23 kJ/mol for M = CdII (0.95 Å). Thus, CuICd-MFU-4l provides a second, more stable example of optimal H2 binding energy for ambient-temperature storage among reported metal-organic frameworks. Structural, computational, and spectroscopic studies indicate that a larger central metal planarizes trigonal CuI sites, weakening the π-backbonding to H2.

Abstract
Ammonia (NH3) is a viable candidate for the storage and distribution of hydrogen (H2) due to its exceptional volumetric and gravimetric hydrogen energy density. Therefore, it is desirable to develop NH3 storage materials that exhibit robust stability across numerous adsorption-desorption cycles. While porous materials with polymeric frameworks are often used for NH3 capture, achieving reversible NH3 uptake remains a formidable challenge, primarily due to the high reactivity of NH3. Here, we advocate the use of CO2H-functionalized cyclic oligophenylene 1a with high chemical stability as a novel single-molecule-based adsorbent for NH3. Simple reprecipitation of 1a selectively yielded microporous crystalline solid 1a (N). Crystalline 1a (N) adsorbs up to 8.27 mmol/g of NH3 at 100 kPa and 293 K. Adsorbed NH3 in the pore of 1a (N) has a packing density of 0.533 g/cm3 at 293 K, which is close to the density of liquid NH3 (0.681 g/cm3 at 240 K). Crystalline 1a (N) also exhibits reversible NH3 adsorption over at least nine cycles, sustaining its storage capacity (1st cycle: 8.27 mmol/g; 9th cycle: 8.25 mmol/g at 100 kPa and 293 K) and crystallinity. During each desorption cycle, NH3 was removed from 1a (N) under reduced pressure (∼65 Pa), leaving <3% of the total uptake, and 1a (N) was fully purged under dynamic vacuum conditions (∼5 × 10-4 Pa at 293 K for 1 h) before the subsequent adsorption cycles. Thus, microporous crystalline 1a (N) can reliably adsorb and desorb NH3 repeatedly, which avoids the need for heat-based activation between cycles.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenously produced gasotransmitter involved in many physiological processes that are integral to proper cellular functioning. Due to its profound anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, H2S plays important roles in preventing inflammatory skin disorders and improving wound healing. Transdermal H2S delivery is a therapeutically viable option for the management of such disorders. However, current small-molecule H2S donors are not optimally suited for transdermal delivery and typically generate electrophilic byproducts that may lead to undesired toxicity. Here, we demonstrate that H2S release from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) bearing coordinatively unsaturated metal centers is a promising alternative for controlled transdermal delivery of H2S. Gas sorption measurements and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) studies of 11 MOFs support that the Mg-based framework Mg2(dobdc) (dobdc4- = 2,5-dioxidobenzene-1,4-dicarboxylate) is uniquely well-suited for transdermal H2S delivery due to its strong yet reversible binding of H2S, high capacity (14.7 mmol/g at 1 bar and 25 °C), and lack of toxicity. In addition, Rietveld refinement of synchrotron PXRD data from H2S-dosed Mg2(dobdc) supports that the high H2S capacity of this framework arises due to the presence of three distinct binding sites. Last, we demonstrate that transdermal delivery of H2S from Mg2(dobdc) is sustained over a 24 h period through porcine skin. Not only is this significantly longer than sodium sulfide but this represents the first example of controlled transdermal delivery of pure H2S gas. Overall, H2S-loaded Mg2(dobdc) is an easily accessible, solid-state source of H2S, enabling safe storage and transdermal delivery of this therapeutically relevant gas.

Abstract
Gases are essential for various applications relevant to human health, including in medicine, biomedical imaging, and pharmaceutical synthesis. However, gases are significantly more challenging to safely handle than liquids and solids. Herein, we review the use of porous materials, such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), zeolites, and silicas, to adsorb medicinally relevant gases and facilitate their handling as solids. Specific topics include the use of MOFs and zeolites to deliver H2S for therapeutic applications, 129Xe for magnetic resonance imaging, O2 for the treatment of cancer and hypoxia, and various gases for use in organic synthesis. This Perspective aims to bring together the organic, inorganic, medicinal, and materials chemistry communities to inspire the design of next-generation porous materials for the storage and delivery of medicinally relevant gases.

Abstract
Ammonia (NH3) is a carbon-free, hydrogen-rich chemical related to global food safety, clean energy, and environmental protection. As an essential technology for meeting the requirements raised by such issues, NH3 capture has been intensively explored by researchers in both fundamental and applied fields. The four typical methods used are (1) solvent absorption by ionic liquids and their derivatives, (2) adsorption by porous solids, (3) ab-adsorption by porous liquids, and (4) membrane separation. Rooted in the development of advanced materials for NH3 capture, we conducted a coherent review of the design of different materials, mainly in the past 5 years, their interactions with NH3 molecules and construction of transport pathways, as well as the structure-property relationship, with specific examples discussed. Finally, the challenges in current research and future worthwhile directions for NH3 capture materials are proposed.

Abstract
Recovering waste NH3 to be used as a source of nitrogen fertilizer or liquid fuel has recently attracted much attention. Current methods mainly utilize activated carbon or metal-organic frameworks to capture NH3, but are limited due to low NH3 adsorption capacity and high cost, respectively. In this study, novel porous materials that are low cost and easy to synthesize were prepared as NH3 adsorbents by precipitation polymerization with acid optimization. The results showed that adsorption sites (‒COOH, -OH, and lactone) which form chemical adsorption or hydrogen bonds with NH3 were successfully regulated by response surface methods. Correspondingly, the dynamic NH3 adsorption capacity increased from 5.45 mg g-1 to 129 mg g-1, which is higher than most known activated carbon and metal-organic frameworks. Separation performance tests showed that NH3 could also be separated from CO2 and CH4. The findings in this study will advance the industrialization of NH3 polymer adsorbents and provide technical support for the recycling of waste NH3.

Abstract
The selective halogenation of complex (hetero)aromatic systems is a critical yet challenging transformation that is relevant to medicinal chemistry, agriculture, and biomedical imaging. However, current methods are limited by toxic reagents, expensive homogeneous second- and third-row transition metal catalysts, or poor substrate tolerance. Herein, we demonstrate that porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) containing terminal Co(III) halide sites represent a rare and general class of heterogeneous catalysts for the controlled installation of chlorine and fluorine centers into electron-deficient (hetero)aryl bromides using simple metal halide salts. Mechanistic studies support that these halogen exchange (halex) reactions proceed via redox-neutral nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) at the Co(III) sites. The MOF-based halex catalysts are recyclable, enable green halogenation with minimal waste generation, and facilitate halex in a continuous flow. Our findings represent the first example of SNAr catalysis using MOFs, expanding the lexicon of synthetic transformations enabled by these materials.

Abstract
MOFs are considered as efficient NH3 adsorbents for their high capacity but are accompanied by the collapse of MOFs. In this work, macromolecule-metal complexes (MMCs), which could provide metal sites like MOFs, were developed for reversible NH3 uptake with high capacity with the assistance of the polymeric ligands. Based on the tunable structure of MMCs, the role of the polymeric ligands and metallic center was investigated. Thereinto, MMCs-3 with dual polymeric ligands presented higher NH3 adsorption capacity and reversibility of adsorbents compared with MMCs containing a single polymeric ligand (MMCs-1 and MMCs-2). Combined with the NH3 adsorption test, characterization of FT-IR, UV-vis, EPR spectroscopy, NH3-TPD measurement, and the DFT calculations, it was found that the neutral polymeric ligands PVIm contributed to improve the stability of MMCs-3 under a NH3 atmosphere for the tough networks of PVIm-M(II), while the polymeric ligands with a carboxylate anion together with M(II) enhanced the NH3 capacity for the feasible coordination of a carboxylate anion with M(II). The mechanism of NH3 uptake by PVIm-Co-PVBA was proposed that the NH3 was fixed through the coordination with Co(II) along with the departure of PVBA and the following hydrogen bonding interaction with PVBA, while the coordination between PVIm and Co(II) was not destroyed. Thus, MMCs-3 with dual polymeric ligands presented a higher NH3 uptake capacity and stability. Optimally, PVIm-M-PVBA with the metal center of Co(II), Cu(II), and Ni(II) were obtained with a high capacity of 20.8-23.7 NH3 mmol/g at 25 °C and 1 bar and a high selectivity of NH3 over CO2 (54.9-99.9) and N2 (73.0-187.6) through the breakthrough measurement with a gas mixture of 0.2% NH3, 2% CO2, and 99.6% N2 at 25 °C.

Abstract
Efficient and inherently safe NH3 storage and separation are of significant importance for the chemical industry. Herein, we proposed zwitterionic COF as a porous host to disperse LiCl for highly efficient NH3 storage and separation with record adsorption capacity. The equivalently cationic and anionic groups in the channels of zwitterionic COF could act as two separated sites to facilitate the dispersion of LiCl, hence the optimal composite exhibits a high capture capacity of 44.98 mmol/g at 25 °C and 1 bar, far exceeding other existing porous materials. Notably, the adsorption capacity is completely reversible and the efficient separation of NH3 from NH3 /CO2 /N2 mixture is achieved through breakthrough experiments. DFT calculation combined with XPS and 7 Li NMR experimental results give insight into the interaction between zwitterionic COF and LiCl. This work extends possibilities for the development of efficient adsorbents for NH3 storage and separation.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous, crystalline materials constructed from organic linkers and inorganic nodes that have attracted widespread interest due to their permanent porosity and highly modular structures. However, the large volumes of organic solvents and additives, long reaction times, and specialized equipment typically required to synthesize MOFs hinder their widespread adoption in both academia and industry. Recently, our lab has developed several user-friendly methods for the gram-scale (1-100 g) preparation of MOFs. Herein, we summarize our progress in the development of high-concentration solvothermal, mechanochemical, and ionothermal syntheses of MOFs, as well as in minimizing the amount of modulators required to prepare highly crystalline Zr-MOFs. To begin, we detail our work elucidating key features of acid modulation in Zr-MOFs to improve upon current dilute solvothermal syntheses. Choosing an optimal modulator maximizes the crystallinity and porosity of Zr-MOFs while minimizing the quantity of modulator needed, reducing the waste associated with MOF synthesis. By evaluating a range of modulators, we identify the pKa, size, and structural similarity of the modulator to the linker as controlling factors in modulating ability. In the following section, we describe two high-concentration solvothermal methods for the synthesis of Zr-MOFs and demonstrate their generality among a range of frameworks. We also target the M2(dobdc) (M = Mg, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd; dobdc4- = 2,5-dioxido-1,4-benzenedicarboxylate) family of MOFs for high-concentration synthesis and introduce a two-step preparation of several variants that proceeds through a novel kinetic phase. The high-concentration methods we discuss produce MOFs on multi-gram scale with comparable properties to those prepared under traditional dilute solvothermal conditions. Next, to further curtail solvent waste and accelerate reaction times, we discuss the mechanochemical preparation of M2(dobdc) MOFs utilizing liquid amine additives in a planetary ball mill, which we also apply to the synthesis of two related salicylate frameworks. These samples exhibit comparable porosities to traditional dilute solvothermal samples but can be synthesized in just minutes, as opposed to days, and require under 1 mL of liquid additive to prepare ~0.5 g of material. In the following section, we discuss our efforts to avoid specialized equipment and eliminate solvent use entirely by employing ionothermal conditions to prepare a variety of azolate- and salicylate-based MOFs. Simply combining metal chloride (hydrate) salts with organic linkers at temperatures above the melting points of the salts affords high-quality framework materials. Further, ionothermal conditions enable the syntheses of two new Fe(III) M2(dobdc) derivatives that cannot be synthesized under normal solvothermal conditions. Last, as a demonstrative example, we discuss our efforts to synthesize 100 g of high-quality Mg2(dobdc) in a single batch using a high-concentration (1.0 M) hydrothermal synthesis. Our Account will be of significant interest to researchers aiming to prepare gram-scale quantities of MOFs for further study.

Abstract
ConspectusMetal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of hybrid porous materials characterized by their periodic assembly using metal ions and organic ligands through coordination bonds. Their high crystallinity, extensive surface area, and adjustable pore sizes make them promising candidates for a wide array of applications. These include gas adsorption and separation, substrate binding, and catalysis, of relevance to tackling pressing global issues such as climate change, energy challenges, and pollution. In comparison to traditional porous materials such as zeolites and activated carbons, the design flexibility of organic ligands in MOFs, coupled with their orderly arrangement with associated metal centers, allows for the precise engineering of uniform pore environments. This unique feature enables a rich variety of interactions between the MOF host and adsorbed gas molecules, which are fundamental to understanding the observed uptake capacity and selectivity for target gas molecules and thus the overall performance of the material.In this Account, a data set for three-dimensional MOFs has been constructed based upon the structural analysis of host-guest interactions using the largest experimental database, the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD). A full screening was performed on structures with guest molecules of H2, C2H2, CO2, and SO2, and the relationship between the primary binding site, the isosteric heats of adsorption (Qst), and the adsorption uptake was extracted and established. We review the methodologies to refine host-guest interactions based primarily on our studies on the host-guest chemistry of MOFs. The methods include ligand functionalization, variation of metal centers, formation of defects, addition of single atom sites, and control of pore size and structure. In situ structural and dynamic investigations using diffraction and spectroscopic techniques are powerful tools to visualize the details of host-guest interactions upon the above modifications, affording key insights into functional performance at a molecular level. Finally, we give an outlook of future research priorities in the study of host-guest chemistry in MOF materials. We hope this Account will encourage the rational development and improvement of future MOF-based sorbents for applications in challenging gas adsorption, separations, and catalysis.

Abstract
Functional porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been explored for a number of potential applications in catalysis, chemical sensing, water capture, gas storage, and separation. MOFs are among the most promising candidates to address challenges facing our society related to energy and environment, but the successful implementation of functional porous MOF materials are contingent on their stability; therefore, the rational design of stable MOFs plays an important role towards the development of functional porous MOFs. In this Focus article, we summarize progress in the rational design and synthesis of stable MOFs with controllable pores and functionalities. The implementation of reticular chemistry allows for the rational top-down design of stable porous MOFs with targeted topological networks and pore structures from the pre-selected building blocks. We highlight the reticular synthesis and applications of stable MOFs: (1) MOFs based on high valent metal ions (e.g., Al3+, Cr3+, Fe3+, Ti4+ and Zr4+) and carboxylate ligands; (2) MOFs based on low valent metal ions (e.g., Ni2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+) and azolate linkers. We envision that the synthetic strategies, including modulated synthesis and post-synthetic modification, can potentially be extended to other more complex systems like metal-phosphonate framework materials.

Abstract
In this paper, the sorption of NH3, H2O, SO2 and CO2 was tested for several selected inorganic materials. The tests were performed on samples belonging to two topologies of materials, faujasite (FAU) and framework-type MFI, the structures of which differ in pore size and connectivity. All sorbates are important in terms of reducing their emissions to the environment. They have different chemical nature: basic, alkaline, and acidic. They are all polar in structure and composition and two of them (ammonia and water vapor) can form hydrogen bonds. These differences result in different interactions with the surface of the adsorbents. This paper presents experimental data and proposes a mathematical description of the sorption process. The best fit of the experimental data was obtained for the Toth and GAB models. The studies showed that among the selected samples, faujasite has the best sorption capacity for ammonia and water vapor, while the best sorbent for sulfur dioxide is the MFI framework type. These materials behave like molecular sieves and can be used for quite selective adsorption of relevant gases. In addition, modification of the faujasite with organic silane resulted in a drastic reduction in the surface area of the sorbent, resulting in significantly lower sorption capacities for gases.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous, crystalline materials constructed from organic linkers and inorganic nodes with myriad potential applications in chemical separations, catalysis, and drug delivery. A major barrier to the application of MOFs is their poor scalability, as most frameworks are prepared under highly dilute solvothermal conditions using toxic organic solvents. Herein, we demonstrate that combining a range of linkers with low-melting metal halide (hydrate) salts leads directly to high-quality MOFs without added solvent. Frameworks prepared under these ionothermal conditions possess porosities comparable to those prepared under traditional solvothermal conditions. In addition, we report the ionothermal syntheses of two frameworks that cannot be prepared directly under solvothermal conditions. Overall, the user-friendly method reported herein should be broadly applicable to the discovery and synthesis of stable metal-organic materials.

Abstract
The hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) are a class of porous materials with crystalline frame structures, which are self-assembled from organic structures by hydrogen bonding in non-covalent bonds π-π packing and van der Waals force interaction. HOFs are widely used in environmental remediation due to their high specific surface area, ordered pore structure, pore modifiability, and post-synthesis adjustability of various physical and chemical forms. This work summarizes some rules for constructing stable HOFs and the synthesis of HOF-based materials (synthesis of HOFs, metallized HOFs, and HOF-derived materials). In addition, the applications of HOF-based materials in the field of environmental remediation are introduced, including adsorption and separation (NH3, CO2/CH4 and CO2/N2, C2H2/C2He and CeH6, C2H2/CO2, Xe/Kr, etc.), heavy metal and radioactive metal adsorption, organic dye and pesticide adsorption, energy conversion (producing H2 and CO2 reduced to CO), organic dye degradation and pollutant sensing (metal ion, aniline, antibiotic, explosive steam, etc.). Finally, the current challenges and further studies of HOFs (such as functional modification, molecular simulation, application extension as remediation of contaminated soil, and cost assessment) are discussed. It is hoped that this work will help develop widespread applications for HOFs in removing a variety of pollutants from the environment.

Abstract
Quantitatively visualizing the thermal dehydration in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), especially at the single-particle level, is still challenging, hindering a deeper understanding of the reaction dynamics. Using in situ dark-field microscopy (DFM), we image the thermal dehydration process of single water-containing HKUST-1 (H2O-HKUST-1) metal-organic framework (MOF) particles. DFM maps the color intensity of single H2O-HKUST-1, which is linearly correlated with the water content in the HKUST-1 framework, enabling a direct quantification of several reaction kinetic parameters of single HKUST-1 particles. Interestingly, when H2O-HKUST-1 is transformed into deutoxide (D2O)-containing HKUST-1, the corresponding thermal dehydration reaction displays higher temperature parameters and activation energy but shows a lower rate constant and diffusion coefficient, revealing the isotope effect. The significant variation of the diffusion coefficient is also confirmed by molecular dynamics simulations. The present operando results are anticipated to provide valuable guidelines for the design and development of advanced porous materials.

Abstract
Ammonia (NH3) is among the world's most widely produced bulk chemicals, given its extensive use in diverse sectors such as agriculture; however, it poses environmental and health risks at low concentrations. Therefore, there is a need for developing new technologies and materials to capture and store ammonia safely. Herein, we report for the first time the use of metal-organic polyhedra (MOPs) as ammonia adsorbents. We evaluated three different rhodium-based MOPs: [Rh2(bdc)2]12 (where bdc is 1,3-benzene dicarboxylate); one functionalized with hydroxyl groups at its outer surface [Rh2(OH-bdc)2]12 (where OH-bdc is 5-hydroxy-1,3-benzene dicarboxylate); and one decorated with aliphatic alkoxide chains at its outer surface [Rh2(C12O-bdc)2]12 (where C12O-bdc is 5-dodecoxybenzene-1,3-benzene dicarboxylate). Ammonia-adsorption experiments revealed that all three Rh-MOPs strongly interact with ammonia, with uptake capacities exceeding 10 mmol/gMOP. Furthermore, computational and experimental data showed that the mechanism of the interaction between Rh-MOPs and ammonia proceeds through a first step of coordination of NH3 to the axial site of the Rh(II) paddlewheel cluster, which triggers the adsorption of additional NH3 molecules through H-bonding interaction. This unique mechanism creates H-bonded clusters of NH3 on each Rh(II) axial site, which accounts for the high NH3 uptake capacity of Rh-MOPs. Rh-MOPs can be regenerated through their immersion in acidic water, and upon activation, their ammonia uptake can be recovered for at least three cycles. Our findings demonstrate that MOPs can be used as porous hosts to capture corrosive molecules like ammonia, and that their surface functionalization can enhance the ammonia uptake performance.

Abstract
The efficient production of ammonia (NH3) from dinitrogen (N2) and water (H2O) using renewable energy is an important step on the roadmap to the ammonia economy. The productivity of this conversion hinges on the design and development of new active catalysts. In the wide scope of materials that have been examined as catalysts for the photo- and electro-driven reduction of N2 to NH3, functional metal-organic framework (MOF) catalysts exhibit unique properties and appealing features. By elucidating their structural and spectroscopic properties and linking this to the observed activity of MOF-based catalysts, valuable information can be gathered to inspire new generations of advanced catalysts to produce green NH3. NH3 is also a surrogate for the hydrogen (H2) economy, and the potential application of MOFs for the practical and effective capture, safe storage, and transport of NH3 is also discussed. This Perspective analyzes the contribution that MOFs can make toward the ammonia economy.

Abstract
Ammonia is a critical chemical in agriculture and industry that is produced on a massive scale via the Haber-Bosch process1. The environmental impact of this process, which uses methane as a fuel and feedstock for hydrogen, has motivated the need for more sustainable ammonia production2-5. However, many strategies that use renewable hydrogen are not compatible with existing methods for ammonia separation6-9. Given their high surface areas and structural and chemical versatility, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) hold promise for ammonia separations, but most MOFs bind ammonia irreversibly or degrade on exposure to this corrosive gas10,11. Here we report a tunable three-dimensional framework that reversibly binds ammonia by cooperative insertion into its metal-carboxylate bonds to form a dense, one-dimensional coordination polymer. This unusual adsorption mechanism provides considerable intrinsic thermal management12, and, at high pressures and temperatures, cooperative ammonia uptake gives rise to large working capacities. The threshold pressure for ammonia adsorption can further be tuned by almost five orders of magnitude through simple synthetic modifications, pointing to a broader strategy for the development of energy-efficient ammonia adsorbents.

Abstract
Hydrocarbon separations using porous materials such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been proposed to reduce the energy demands associated with current distillation-based methods. Despite the potential of these materials to distinguish hydrocarbons through thermodynamic or kinetic mechanisms, experimental data quantifying hydrocarbon transport in MOFs is lacking. Such mass transfer measurements are vital to elucidate structure-property relationships and design future high-performing separation materials. In this work, we aim to isolate the influence of pore size on hydrocarbon diffusion by studying a pair of isoreticular MOFs, Co2Cl2BBTA and Co2Cl2BTDD. We use a volumetric method to extract mass transport coefficients for six hydrocarbon probe molecules of varying size and chemical functionality. From these nonequilibrium mass transport measurements, we determine the rate-limiting diffusion mechanism and identify trends in hydrocarbon surface permeabilities in the MOFs based on pore size, hydrocarbon chain length, and temperature.

Abstract
Activated carbon and metal organic frameworks have been tested as NH3 recovery adsorbents, however, they are limited due to low NH3 adsorption capacity and high cost, respectively. In this study, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) polymers as the representative ester plastics were tested, and their structure and adsorption sites were regulated using HNO3, HCl, or H2SO4 with varied H+ concentrations. The results showed that the EGDMA polymers all used hydrolysis which promoted NH3 adsorption via different mechanisms. With HNO3 and HCl optimization, an increased surface area promoted NH3 adsorption via physical forces. H2SO4 optimization resulted in -COOH, -OH, and -SO3H formation, which reacted with NH3 by chemical adsorption and hydrogen bonds. This significantly increased the NH3 adsorption capacity (85.99 mg·g-1) compared to the material before optimization (0.36 mg·g-1). This study presents a novel low-cost and efficient method to recycle waste plastics as NH3 adsorbents.

Abstract
Inspired by a recently reported metal-organic framework (MOF), V2Cl2.8(btdd) [H2btdd = bis(1H-1,2,3-triazolo[4,5-b],[4',5'-i])dibenzo[1,4]dioxin], that shows a greatly improved H2 adsorption enthalpy, we employ density functional theory to probe how the number of d electrons and the mixed valences influence the M-H2 interaction inside the M2Clx(btdd) MOFs. We find a cliff in the H2 adsorption energy: the interaction strength remains strong from Sc to V and then falls sharply at Cr. Our results confirm V2Cl2.8(btdd) as one of the best performing hydrogen adsorbents and predict that Ti2Cl2.8(btdd) is equally promising while Sc2Cl2(btdd) and Ti2Cl2(btdd) may be even better. Our analysis indicates that an empty dx2-y2 orbital is the key to the much stronger binding of H2 at the open M(II) site (M = Sc, Ti, or V), whereas a partially filled dx2-y2 orbital in Cr(II) and later M(II) greatly weakens H2 binding. Our findings will be useful in designing MOFs to enhance H2 adsorption.

Abstract
Triazolate-based MFU-4-type metal-organic frameworks are promising candidates for various applications, of which heterogeneous catalysis has emerged as a hot topic owing to the facile post-synthetic metal and ligand exchange in Kuratowski secondary building units (SBUs). Herein, we present the largest non-interpenetrated isoreticular MFU-4-type framework CFA-19 ([Co5IICl4(H2-bibt)3]; H4-bibt = 1,1',5,5'-tetrahydro-6,6'-biimidazo[4,5-f]benzotriazole; CFA-19 = Coordination Framework Augsburg University-19) and the CFA-19-Tp derivative featuring trispyrazolylborate inhibited SBUs as a scaffold with open bibenzimidazole coordination sites at the backbone of the H4-bibt linker. The proof-of-principle incorporation of accessible MIBr(CO)3 (M = Re, Mn) sites in CFA-19-Tp was revealed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and a thermally induced CO release was observed for MnBr(CO)3. Deprotonation of bibenzimidazole was also achieved by the reaction with ZnEt2.

Abstract
Oxygen is a critical gas in numerous industries and is produced globally on a gigatonne scale, primarily through energy-intensive cryogenic distillation of air. The realization of large-scale adsorption-based air separations could enable a significant reduction in associated worldwide energy consumption and would constitute an important component of broader efforts to combat climate change. Certain small-scale air separations are carried out using N2-selective adsorbents, although the low capacities, poor selectivities, and high regeneration energies associated with these materials limit the extent of their usage. In contrast, the realization of O2-selective adsorbents may facilitate more widespread adoption of adsorptive air separations, which could enable the decentralization of O2 production and utilization and advance new uses for O2. Here, we present a detailed evaluation of the potential of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to serve as O2-selective adsorbents for air separations. Drawing insights from biological and molecular systems that selectively bind O2, we survey the field of O2-selective MOFs, highlighting progress and identifying promising areas for future exploration. As a guide for further research, the importance of moving beyond the traditional evaluation of O2 adsorption enthalpy, ΔH, is emphasized, and the free energy of O2 adsorption, ΔG, is discussed as the key metric for understanding and predicting MOF performance under practical conditions. Based on a proof-of-concept assessment of O2 binding carried out for eight different MOFs using experimentally derived capacities and thermodynamic parameters, we identify two existing materials and one proposed framework with nearly optimal ΔG values for operation under user-defined conditions. While enhancements are still needed in other material properties, the insights from the assessments herein serve as a guide for future materials design and evaluation. Computational approaches based on density functional theory with periodic boundary conditions are also discussed as complementary to experimental efforts, and new predictions enable identification of additional promising MOF systems for investigation.

Abstract
Developing new and efficient technologies for environmental remediation is becoming significant due to the increase in global concerns such as climate change, severe epidemics, and energy crises. Air pollution, primarily due to increased levels of H2S, SOx, NH3, NOx, CO, volatile organic compounds (VOC), and particulate matter (PM) in the atmosphere, has a significant impact on public health, and exhaust gases harm the natural sulfur, nitrogen, and carbon cycles. Similarly, wastewater discharged to the environment with metal ions, herbicides, pharmaceuticals, personal care products, dyes, and aromatics/organic compounds is a risk for health since it may lead to an outbreak of waterborne pathogens and increase the exposure to endocrine-disrupting agents. Therefore, developing new and efficient air and water quality management systems is critical. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are novel materials for which the main application areas include gas storage and separation, water harvesting from the atmosphere, chemical sensing, power storage, drug delivery, and food preservation. Due to their versatile structural motifs that can be modified during synthesis, MOFs also have a great promise for green applications including air and water pollution remediation. The motivation to use MOFs for environmental applications prompted the modification of their structures via the addition of metal and functional groups, as well as the creation of heterostructures by mixing MOFs with other nanomaterials, to effectively remove hazardous contaminants from wastewater and the atmosphere. In this review, we focus on the state-of-the-art environmental applications of MOFs, particularly for water treatment and air pollution, by highlighting the groundbreaking studies in which MOFs have been used as adsorbents, membranes, and photocatalysts for the abatement of air and water pollution. We finally address the opportunities and challenges for the environmental applications of MOFs.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a new class of porous crystalline materials constructed from organic ligands and metal ions/clusters. Owing to their unique advantages, they have attracted more and more attention in recent years and numerous studies have revealed their great potential in various applications. Many important applications of MOFs inevitably involve harsh alkaline operational environments. To achieve high performance and long cycling life in these applications, high stability of MOFs against bases is necessary. Therefore, the construction of base-stable MOFs has become a critical research direction in the MOF field. This review gives a historic summary of the development of base-stable MOFs in the last few years. The key factors that can determine the robustness of MOFs under basic conditions are analyzed. We also demonstrate the exciting achievements that have been made by utilizing base-stable MOFs in different applications. In the end, we discuss major challenges for the further development of base-stable MOFs. Some possible methods to address these problems are presented.

Abstract
Ammonia has recently emerged as a promising hydrogen carrier for renewable energy conversion. Establishing a better understanding and control of ammonia adsorption and desorption is necessary to improve future energy generation. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have shown improved ammonia capacity and stability over conventional adsorbents such as silica and zeolite. However, ammonia desorption requires high temperature over 150 °C, which is not desirable for energy-efficient ammonia reuse and recycling. Here, we loaded silver nanoparticles from 6.6 to 51.4 wt% in MIL-101 (Ag@MIL-101) using an impregnation method to develop an efficient MOF-based hybrid adsorbent for ammonia uptake. The incorporation of metal nanoparticles into MIL-101 has not been widely explored for ammonia uptake, even though such hybrid nanostructures have significantly enhanced catalytic activities and gas sensing capacities. Structural features of Ag@MIL-101 with different Ag wt% were examined using transmission electron microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, and infrared spectroscopy, demonstrating successful formation of silver nanoparticles in MIL-101. Ag@MIL-101 (6.6 wt%) showed hysteresis in the N2 isotherm and an increase in the fraction of larger pores, indicating that mesopores were generated during the impregnation. Temperature-programmed desorption with ammonia was performed to understand the binding affinity of ammonia molecules on Ag@MIL-101. The binding affinity was the lowest with Ag@MIL-101 (6.6 wt%), including the largest relative fraction in the amount of desorbed ammonia molecules. It was presumed that cooperative interaction between the silver nanoparticle and the MIL-101 framework for ammonia molecules could allow such a decrease in the desorption temperature. Our design strategy with metal nanoparticles incorporated into MOFs would contribute to develop hybrid MOFs that reduce energy consumption when reusing ammonia from storage.

Abstract
Ammonia is a promising energy vector that can store the high energy density of hydrogen. For this reason, numerous adsorbents have been investigated as ammonia storage materials, but ammonia adsorbents with a high gravimetric/volumetric ammonia capacity that can be simultaneously regenerated in an energy-efficient manner remain underdeveloped, which hampers their practical implementation. Herein, we report Ni_acryl_TMA (TMA = thiomallic acid), an acidic group-functionalized metal-organic framework prepared via successive postsynthetic modifications of mesoporous Ni2Cl2BTDD (BTDD = bis(1H-1,2,3,-triazolo [4,5-b],-[4',5'-i]) dibenzo[1,4]dioxin). By virtue of the densely located acid groups, Ni_acryl_TMA exhibited a top-tier gravimetric ammonia capacity of 23.5 mmol g-1 and the highest ammonia storage of 0.39 g cm-3 at 1 bar and 298 K. The structural integrity and ammonia storage capacity of Ni_acryl_TMA were maintained after ammonia adsorption-desorption tests over five cycles. Temperature-programmed desorption analysis revealed that the moderate strength of the interaction between the functional groups and ammonia significantly reduced the desorption temperature compared to that of the pristine framework with open metal sites. The structures of the postsynthetic modified analogues were elucidated based on Pawley/Rietveld refinement of the synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction patterns and van der Waals (vdW)-corrected density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Furthermore, the ammonia adsorption mechanism was investigated via in situ infrared and vdW-corrected DFT calculations, revealing an atypical guest-induced binding mode transformation of the integrated carboxylate. Dynamic breakthrough tests showed that Ni_acryl_TMA can selectively capture traces of ammonia under both dry and wet conditions (80% relative humidity). These results demonstrate that Ni_acryl_TMA is a superior ammonia storage/capture material.

Abstract
The implementation of sustainable industrial development based on energy/cost-effective techniques with zero/low rate of pollutant emission is an ideal strategy for the proper management of a natural environment. Gaseous ammonia released from a variety of anthropogenic sources (e.g., agriculture, pharmaceuticals, commercial cleaning products, and refrigerant) is estimated to be as high as 150 million tons∙year-1. To reduce the negative effects of atmospheric ammonia, the great utility of advanced functional nanomaterials (e.g., metal organic frameworks, covalent organic polymers, metal/metal oxide nanoparticles, and carbon nanostructures) has been recognized. To gain a better understanding of the sorptive removal potential of diverse materials, their performance has been evaluated based on the key performance merits (e.g., initial concentration, sorption capacity, and partition coefficient). Generally, the PC values can be applied to significantly estimate the contaminant adsorption potential of NMs via balancing the biased influences of operating parameters (e.g., initial concentration of pollutants) as perceived for the partitioning of compounds between aqueous phases at equilibrium (e.g., Henry's Law). Therefore, in this work, we have proposed the PC as a prosperous performance merit (in terms of heterogeneity of surface and strength of adsorption process) for the selection of high performance nano-adsorbents for gaseous ammonia. Moreover, the water stability, recyclability, economic aspects, and future perspectives have also been discussed for real-world applications of advanced nanomaterial against gaseous ammonia adsorption. The outcome of this evaluation will be expedient for the classification/selection of the most effectual and cost-effective options for mitigation of environmental pollutants like gaseous ammonia.

Abstract
The presence of active sites in metal-organic framework (MOF) materials can control and affect their performance significantly in adsorption and catalysis. However, revealing the interactions between the substrate and active sites in MOFs at atomic precision remains a challenging task. Here, we report the direct observation of binding of NH3 in a series of UiO-66 materials containing atomically dispersed defects and open Cu(I) and Cu(II) sites. While all MOFs in this series exhibit similar surface areas (1111-1135 m2 g-1), decoration of the -OH site in UiO-66-defect with Cu(II) results in a 43% enhancement of the isothermal uptake of NH3 at 273 K and 1.0 bar from 11.8 in UiO-66-defect to 16.9 mmol g-1 in UiO-66-CuII. A 100% enhancement of dynamic adsorption of NH3 at a concentration level of 630 ppm from 2.07 mmol g-1 in UiO-66-defect to 4.15 mmol g-1 in UiO-66-CuII at 298 K is observed. In situ neutron powder diffraction, inelastic neutron scattering, and electron paramagnetic resonance, solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance, and infrared spectroscopies, coupled with modeling reveal that the enhanced NH3 uptake in UiO-66-CuII originates from a {Cu(II)···NH3} interaction, with a reversible change in geometry at Cu(II) from near-linear to trigonal coordination. This work represents the first example of structural elucidation of NH3 binding in MOFs containing open metal sites and will inform the design of new efficient MOF sorbents by targeted control of active sites for NH3 capture and storage.

Abstract
To understand the exceptional adsorption of ammonia (NH3) in MFM-300(Sc) (19.5 mmol g-1 at 273 K and 1 bar without hysteresis), we report a systematic investigation of the mechanism of adsorption by a combination of in situ neutron powder diffraction, inelastic neutron scattering, synchrotron infrared microspectroscopy, and solid-state 45Sc NMR spectroscopy. These complementary techniques reveal the formation of reversible host-guest supramolecular interactions, which explains directly the observed excellent reversibility of this material over 90 adsorption-desorption cycles.

Abstract
In this work, we computationally explore the formation and subsequent reactivity of various iron-oxo species in the iron-triazolate framework Fe2(μ-OH)2(bbta) (H2bbta = 1H,5H-benzo(1,2-d:4,5-d')bistriazole) for the catalytic activation of strong C-H bonds. With the direct conversion of methane to methanol as the probe reaction of interest, we use density functional theory (DFT) calculations to evaluate multiple mechanistic pathways in the presence of either N2O or H2O2 oxidants. These calculations reveal that a wide range of transition metal-oxo sites - both terminal and bridging - are plausible in this family of metal-organic frameworks, making it a unique platform for comparing the electronic structure and reactivity of different proposed active site motifs. Based on the DFT calculations, we predict that Fe2(μ-OH)2(bbta) would exhibit a relatively low barrier for N2O activation and energetically favorable formation of an [Fe(O)]2+ species that is capable of oxidizing C-H bonds. In contrast, the use of H2O2 as the oxidant is predicted to yield an assortment of bridging iron-oxo sites that are less reactive. We also find that abstracting oxo ligands can exhibit a complex mixture of both positive and negative spin density, which may have broader implications for relating the degree of radical character to catalytic activity. In general, we consider the coordinatively unsaturated iron sites to be promising for oxidation catalysis, and we provide several recommendations on how to further tune the catalytic properties of this family of metal-triazolate frameworks.

Abstract
Ammonia is useful for the production of fertilizers and chemicals for modern technology, but its high toxicity and corrosiveness are harmful to the environment and human health. Here, we report the recyclable and tunable ammonia adsorption using a robust imidazolium-based MOF (JCM-1) that uptakes 5.7 mmol g−1 of NH3 at 298 K reversibly without structural deformation. Furthermore, a simple substitution of NO3− with Cl− in a post-synthetic manner leads to an increase in the NH3 uptake capacity of JCM-1(Cl−) up to 7.2 mmol g−1. Recyclable and tunable ammonia adsorption with JCM-1 and JCM-1(Cl−) at room temperature occurs reversibly without structural decomposition.![]()

Abstract
High storage capacity, high separation selectivity, and high structure stability are essential for an idea gas adsorbent. However, it is not easy to achieve all three at the same time, even for the promising metal-organic framework (MOF) adsorbents. We demonstrate herein that robust [Sc3O]-organic frameworks could be regulated by a micropore combination strategy for high-performance acetylene adsorption. Under the same solvent system with formic acid as a modulator, similar tritopic ligands extend [Sc3O(COO)6] trigonal-prismatic clusters to generate SNNU-5-Sc and SNNU-150-Sc adsorbents. Notably, the two Sc-MOFs can keep their architectures over 24 h in water at different pH values (2-12) or at 90 °C. Modulated by the linker symmetry, the final stacking metal-organic polyhedral cages produce open window sizes of about 10 Å for SNNU-5-Sc and 5 Å + 7 Å for SNNU-150-Sc. Due to such micropore combinations, SNNU-5-Sc exhibits a top-level C2H2 uptake of 211.2 cm3 g-1 (1 atm and 273 K) and SNNU-150-Sc shows high C2H2/CH4, C2H2/C2H4, and C2H2/CO2 selectivities of 80.65, 4.03, and 8.19, respectively, under ambient conditions. Dynamic breakthrough curves obtained on a fixed-bed column and grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations further support their prominent acetylene storage and purification performance. High framework stability, storage capacity, and separation selectivity make SNNU-5-Sc and SNNU-150-Sc ideal acetylene adsorbents in practical applications.

Abstract
The efficient capture of toxic gases, such as ammonia (NH3) and sulfur dioxide (SO2), can protect the general population and mitigate widespread air pollution. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) comprise a tunable class of adsorbents with high surface areas that can meet this challenge by selectively capturing these gases at low concentrations. In this work, we explored how modifying the metal ions in the node of an isostructural MOF series from a transition metal to a lanthanide or actinide influences the electronic environment of the node-based active site. Next, we investigated the adsorption properties of each MOF toward the relatively basic NH3 and relatively acidic SO2 gases. Within the NU-907 family of MOFs, we found that Zr6-NU-907 exhibits the best uptake toward NH3 at low pressures, while Th6-NU-907 demonstrates the best low-pressure performance for SO2 adsorption. Tracking the infrared (IR) stretching frequency of the node-based μ3-OH groups provides insights into the electronegativity of the metal ion and suggests that the most electronegative metal ion (Zr) affords the node with the best NH3 uptake at low pressures. In contrast, the Th6 node contains additional coordinated water groups relative to the other M6 nodes, which appears to yield the MOF with the greatest affinity for SO2 uptake that occurs predominately through reversible physisorption interactions. Finally, in situ NH3 IR spectroscopic studies indicate that both NH4+ and Lewis-bound NH3 species form during adsorption. Combined, these results suggest that tuning the electronic properties and structure of the node-based active site in an MOF presents a viable strategy to change the affinity of an MOF toward toxic gases.

Abstract
The structural diversity and designability of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) make these porous materials a strong candidate for NH3 uptake. However, to achieve a high NH3 capture capacity and good recyclability of MOFs at the same time remains a great challenge. Here, a multiple-site ligand screening strategy of MOFs is proposed for highly efficient and reversible NH3 uptake for the first time. Based on the optimized DFT results for various possible ligands, pyrazole-3,5-dicarboxylate with multiple sites was screened as the best ligand to construct robust MOF-303(Al) with Al3+. It is experimentally found that the NH3 adsorption capacity of MOF-303(Al) is as high as 19.7 mmol g-1 at 25.0 °C and 1.0 bar, and the NH3 capture is fully reversible and no clear loss of capture capacity is observed after 20 cycles of adsorption-desorption. Various spectral studies verify that the superior NH3 capacity and excellent recyclability of MOF-303(Al) are mainly attributed to the hydrogen bonding interactions of NH3 with multiple sites of MOF-303(Al).

Abstract
Recently, the application of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in thermal energy storage has attracted increasing research interests. MOF-ammonia working pairs have been proposed for controlling/sensing the air quality, while no work has yet been reported on the immense potential of MOFs for thermal energy storage up till now. Herein, the feasibility of thermal energy storage using seven MOF-ammonia working pairs is experimentally assessed. From ammonia sorption stability and sorption thermodynamics results, it is found that MIL-101(Cr) exhibits both high ammonia sorption stability and the largest sorption capacity of ≈0.76 g g-1 . Compared with MIL-101(Cr)-water working pair, MIL-101(Cr)-ammonia working pair improves the sorption capacity by over three times with evaporation temperature lower than 8.4 °C. Due to stable ammonia sorption stability and negligible hysteresis, MIL-101(Cr) and ZIF-8(Zn) are tested at condensation/evaporation temperature of 30 °C/10 °C. The thermal energy storage density (reaching over 1200 kJ kg-1 ) and coefficient of performance of MIL-101(Cr)-based system are both higher than ZIF-8(Zn)-based one due to larger average isosteric enthalpy and cycle sorption capacity. This experimental work paves the way for developing the high efficient and stable thermal energy storage system with MOF-ammonia working pairs especially for critical conditions with low evaporation temperature and high condensation temperature.

Abstract
CO, ethylene, and H2 demonstrate divergent adsorption enthalpies upon interaction with a series of anion-exchanged Ni2X2BTDD materials (X = OH, F, Cl, Br; H2BTDD = bis(1H-1,2,3-triazolo[4,5-b][4',5'-i])dibenzo[1,4]dioxin)). The dissimilar responses of these conventional π-acceptor gaseous ligands are in contrast with the typical behavior that may be expected for gas sorption in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), which generally follows similar periodic trends for a given set of systematic changes to the host MOF structure. A combination of computational and spectroscopic data reveals that the divergent behavior, especially between CO and ethylene, stems from a predominantly σ-donor interaction between the former and Ni2+ and a π-acceptor interaction for the latter. These findings will facilitate further deliberate postsynthetic modifications of MOFs with open metal sites to control the equilibrium selectivity of gas sorption.

Abstract
Postsynthetic modification methods have emerged as indispensable tools for tuning the properties and reactivity of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). In particular, postsynthetic X-type ligand exchange (PXLE) at metal building units has gained increasing attention as a means of immobilizing guest species, modulating the reactivity of framework metal ions, and introducing new functional groups. The reaction of a Zn-OH functionalized analogue of CFA-1 (1-OH, Zn(ZnOH)4(bibta)3, where bibta2- = 5,5'-bibenzotriazolate) with organic substrates containing mildly acidic E-H groups (E = C, O, N) results in the formation of Zn-E species and water as a byproduct. This Brønsted acid-base PXLE reaction is compatible with substrates with pKa(DMSO) values as high as 30 and offers a rapid and convenient means of introducing new functional groups at Kuratwoski-type metal nodes. Gas adsorption and diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy experiments reveal that the anilide-exchanged MOFs 1-NHPh0.9 and 1-NHPh2.5 exhibit enhanced low-pressure CO2 adsorption compared to 1-OH as a result of a Zn-NHPh + CO2 ⇌ Zn-O2CNHPh chemisorption mechanism. The MFU-4l analogue 2-NHPh ([Zn5(OH)2.1(NHPh)1.9(btdd)3], where btdd2- = bis(1,2,3-triazolo)dibenzodioxin), shows a similar improvement in CO2 adsorption in comparison to the parent MOF containing only Zn-OH groups.
