Abstract:

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are composed of metal-containing clusters (secondary building units joined by organic linkers, often carboxylates or azolates). They have remarkable, often very beautiful, open structures of unprecedentedly high surface area and porosity. Because of their remarkable properties for gas storage, separations, catalysis etc., their study has become the fastest-growing area of inorganic materials chemistry. Their structures are largely those of special favorable topologies which we have now enumerated. Accordingly structures of desired geometric properties can be targeted for designed synthesis - a process we call reticular chemistry (Yaghi, O’Keeffe et al., Nature, 2003). The methodology of enumerating topologies and their use on targeted synthesis will be demonstrated and profusely illustrated.
