The conjunction of porous ZIF-8 with polystyrene spheres is demonstrated to induce the formation of polystyrene@ZIF-8 core-shell structures. A subsequent etching process on polystyrene@ZIF-8 core-shells to remove polystyrene cores results in a unique hollow ZIF-8.

The use of organometallic pi-complexes in the coordination-directed self-assembly of polymeric structures is a new area with many potential applications. Supramolecular metal-organometallic coordination networks (MOMNs), which are described herein, consist of metal ion or metal cluster nodes connected by bifunctional "organometalloligands" that serve as spacers. The organometalloligand utilized in this work is the stable anionic complex (eta(4)-benzoquinone)Mn(CO)(3)(-) (p-QMTC), which binds thr

Coordination polymer nanorods are synthesized from the hexagonal 3D structure of Fe-MIL-88B. Subsequently, hematite (α-Fe(2)O(3)) and magnetite (Fe(3)O(4)) nanorods are selectively prepared by controlling the calcination conditions of coordination polymer nanorods.

Ion balls: The composition of nano- and microparticles made from infinite coordination polymers can be chemically transformed through ion-exchange reactions without substantially changing the particle size and morphology. This approach is a straightforward and useful way of creating one precursor set of particles whose composition can be controllably transformed into that of a new set of compounds with different properties. Micro- and nanosized particles play important roles in many different ar

The structural, compositional, and morphological features of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) govern their properties and applications. Construction of hybrid MOFs with complicated structures, components, or morphologies is significant for the development of well-organized MOFs. An advanced route is reported for construction of atypical hybrid MOFs with unique morphologies and complicated components: 1) MOF-on-MOF growth of a 3D zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) on a ZIF-L template, 2) etching

Well-organized construction of hybrid metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with complicated structures or components is a great importance because of their potential usefulness. In this regard, the conjugation of more than two MOFs, which have dissimilar components and/or structures, is a smart strategy for the production of hybrid MOFs. MOF-on-MOF growth is fundamental for the conjugation of two MOFs and should be deeply understood for the finely controlled conjugation and for the formation of well-

A straightforward strategy for the synthesis of composition-tunable hybrid metal oxide particles with a unique multi ball-in-ball structure has been demonstrated. The systems are logically formulated and prepared using the following processes: i) coordination polymer particles (CPPs) are prepared using a precipitation method, ii) a cation exchange reaction is used to effect composition change, and iii) a final calcination process of CPPs is use to obtain the metal oxides. Detailed facts of impor

The conjugation of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with other materials is an excellent strategy for the production of advanced materials having desired properties and so appropriate applicability. In particular, the integration of MOFs with a flexible paper is expected to form valuable materials in separation technology. Here we report a simple method for the generation of MOF papers through the compact and uniform growth of MOF nanoparticles on the cellulose surface of a carboxymethylated filt

The development of new electrocatalysts for electrochemical oxygen reduction to replace expensive and rare platinum-based catalysts is an important issue in energy storage and conversion research. In this context, conductive and porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are considered promising materials for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) due to not only their high surface area and well-developed pores but also versatile structural features and chemical compositions. Herein, the preparation of

Nano- and micro-composites comprised of porous carbon and magnetic particles are prepared by one-step pyrolysis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). The porosity and composition of resulting magnetic porous carbons are facilely regulated by altering the pyrolysis temperature and changing the organic building blocks incorporated within the initial MOFs.

Three coordination polymer particles (CPPs) are selectively synthesized using the solvothermal method. All three CPPs are prepared from the same building blocks. However, they form different morphologies, such as elongated hexagons, ellipsoids, and rods. Gas-adsorption measurements on N2, CO2, and H2 reveal that diversely shaped CPPs have different gas-adsorption properties, even though they have the same chemical compositions. Detailed facts of importance to specialist readers are published as

Non-hollow In(2)O(3) particles with hexagonal rod- and disk-shapes are generated from the calcination of porous CPPs; however, elongated hexagon-, ellipsoid-, and rod-shaped hollow In(2)O(3) particles are formed from the calcination of non-porous CPPs.

Well-dispersed hollow porous carbon (HPC) spheres are prepared by the pyrolysis of polystyrene@ZIF-8 core-shell microspheres. The resulting HPC spheres have high surface areas and show tremendous methylene blue adsorption ability due to the lack of agglomeration, excellent dispersion, and high surface-to-volume ratio.

A convenient method for the confined incorporation of highly active bimetallic PdCo nanocatalysts within a hollow and porous metal-organic framework (MOF) support is presented. Several chemical conversions occur simultaneously during the one-step low temperature pyrolysis of well-designed polystyrene@ZIF-67/Pd²⁺ core-shell microspheres, where ZIF (zeolitic imidazolate framework) is a subclass of MOF: the polystyrene core is removed, resulting in a beneficial hollow and porous ZIF supp
