Regulating the Topologies of Zirconium–Organic Frameworks for a Crystal Sponge Applicable to Inorganic Matter
摘要:
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been explored as crystal sponges (CSs) to organic substrates, but attention had rarely been paid to inorganic substrates. Herein, hierarchical zirconium-based MOFs exhibiting different topological structures had been fabricated by modulating the functional groups of the V-shaped linkers, including a new 4-fold-interpenetrating one, which displays a great performance as a CS applicable to inorganic matter (I-2 and ReO4-) even in the extreme conditions.
The present invention generally relates to supramolecular assemblies and their modes of synthesis. The supramolecular assemblies include a 1:8 ratio of a supermolecular polyhedral building block and a triangular molecular building block, the supermolecular polyhedral building block having points of extension corresponding to the vertices of a rhombicuboctahedron for linking the supermolecular polyhedral building block to the triangular building block.
