Metal-organic frameworks are crystalline materials, in which metals are linked by ligands (so-called linker molecules) to form repeating coordination motives extending in three dimensions. The HKUST-1 framework is built up of dimeric metal units, which are connected by benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate linker molecules.

Nov 1, 2024 · It is possible to tailor MOFs with distinctive features by the strategic choice of efficient organic linkers and metal ions, enhancing their visible light responsiveness (Dong et al., 2022).

Jul 1, 2011 · Mixed-linker metal-organic frameworks based on the Cu-BTC structure have been synthesized in which the benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate (BTC) linkers have been partially replaced by pyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate (PyDC).

Oct 26, 2020 · In this study, we synthesized a series of isostructural mixed-metal metal–organic frameworks (MM-MOFs) of 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate (BTC), M-Cu-BTC, where M = Zn 2+, Ni 2+, Co 2+, and Fe 2+ using the post-synthetic exchange (PSE) method with metal ions.

Oct 17, 2023 · MOFs have been developed as promising alternative sorbents for CO 2 capture thanks to their super-high porosity, regular porous architectures, and chemical functionalities which can be changed by...

Apr 18, 2023 · Pure Cu-BTC displayed two main thermal events at 64.6 and 335.5 °C, attributing to the evaporation of physically attached water molecules and the thermal degradation of the BTC linker and the consequent evaporation of the organic degradation products.

Feb 26, 2015 · One of the methods used to form thin films of MOFs is the anchoring of a linker or a similar moiety to the substrate surface. This linker then acts as a nucleation site for the formation of MOF crystals (Figure 1 D). On conductive surfaces, linkers can be attached chemically or electrochemically.

Jan 1, 2022 · Yttrium based 3D network structure, have been synthesized using the tritopic organic linker 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (H 3 -BTC) adopting a one-pot, green approach through a fine tuning of the process parameters like temperature and time.

Jul 4, 2023 · MOF-5 [Zn 4 O(bdc) 3 , bdc = terephthalate] and HKUST-1 (Cu 3 (btc) 2 , btc = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate) were prepared and investigated with a base-line in reticular MOF chemical reactions ...

Sep 27, 2019 · A novel, mixed-linker metal–organic framework (MOF) was synthesized, and the resulting macromolecular assembly had enhanced activity and stability in comparison to the isostructural CuBTC (aka HKUST-1).
