Coordination modulation: a way to improve the properties of metal-organic frameworks

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are highly valuable hybrid materials that have drawn significant research attention. One reason for such attractiveness is the designability of their important porosity features such as surface area, surface chemistry, pore shape, size, and size distribution. The coor...

Description
Summary:Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are highly valuable hybrid materials that have drawn significant research attention. One reason for such attractiveness is the designability of their important porosity features such as surface area, surface chemistry, pore shape, size, and size distribution. The coordination modulation method provides a useful way to further modify the porosity, size and shape of MOFs, whereby modulators act as guiding agents during the MOF synthesis. In this review, we discuss coordination modulation with various types of modulators, synthesis techniques, the action of modulators, as well as the effect of modulators on the properties of the modulated MOFs and their application. Coordination modulation is an easy and effective procedure to control the properties of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in order to increase their potential application and/or desirable structural properties.
