Reversible Solvatomagnetic Switching in a Spongelike Manganese(II)-Copper(II) 3D Open Framework with a Pillared Square/Octagonal Layer Architecture

2012

The concept of "molecular magnetic sponges" was introduced for the first time in 1999 by the creative imagination of the late Olivier Kahn. It refers to the exotic spongelike behavior of certain molecule-based materials that undergo a dramatic change of their magnetic properties upon reversible dehydration/rehydration processes. Here we report a unique example of a manganese(II)-copper(II) mixed-metal-organic framework of formula [Na(H(2)O)(4)](4)[Mn(4){Cu(2)(mpba)(2)(H(2)O)(4)}(3)]·56.5H(2)O (1) (mpba=N,N'-1,3-phenylenebis(oxamate)). Compound 1 possesses a 3D Mn(II)(4)Cu(II)(6) pillared layer structure with mixed square and octagonal pores of approximate dimensions 1.2×1.2 nm and 2.1×3.0 n…

Solvent-free synthesis of ZIFs: a route toward the elusive Fe(II) analogue of ZIF-8

2019

Herein we report the synthesis of an elusive metal-organic framework, the iron(II) analogue of ZIF-8 with the formula Fe(2-methylimidazolate) , here denoted as MUV-3. The preparation of this highly interesting porous material, inaccessible by common synthetic procedures, occurs in a solvent-free reaction upon addition of an easily detachable template molecule, yielding single crystals of MUV-3. This methodology can be extended to other metals and imidazolate derivatives, allowing the preparation of ZIF-8, ZIF-67, and the unprecedented iron(II) ZIFs Fe(2-ethylimidazolate) and Fe(2-methylbenzimidazolate) . The different performance of MUV-3 toward NO sorption, in comparison to ZIF-8, results …

Photodegradation of Brilliant Green Dye by a Zinc bioMOF and Crystallographic Visualization of Resulting CO2

2021

We present a novel bio-friendly water-stable Zn-based MOF (1), derived from the natural amino acid L-serine, which was able to efficiently photodegrade water solutions of brilliant green dye in only 120 min. The total degradation was followed by UV-Vis spectroscopy and further confirmed by single-crystal X-ray crystallography, revealing the presence of CO2 within its channels. Reusability studies further demonstrate the structural and performance robustness of 1.

New Microbe Killers : Self-Assembled Silver(I) Coordination Polymers Driven by a Cagelike Aminophosphine

2019

New Ag(I) coordination polymers, formulated as [Ag(μ-PTAH)(NO3)2]n (1) and [Ag(μ-PTA)(NO2)]n (2), were self-assembled as light- and air-stable microcrystalline solids and fully characterized by NMR and IR spectroscopy, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS(±), elemental analysis, powder (PXRD) and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Their crystal structures reveal resembling 1D metal-ligand chains that are driven by the 1,3,5-triaza-7-phospaadamantane (PTA) linkers and supported by terminal nitrate or nitrite ligands; these chains were classified within a 2C1 topological type. Additionally, the structure of 1 features a 1D!2D network extension through intermolecular hydrogen bonds…

Exploiting the Redox Activity of MIL-100(Fe) Carrier Enables Prolonged Carvacrol Antimicrobial Activity

2022

The design of efficient food contact materials that maintain optimal levels of food safety is of paramount relevance to reduce the increasing number of foodborne illnesses. In this work, we develop a smart composite metal-organic framework (MOF)-based material that fosters a unique prolonged antibacterial activity. The composite is obtained by entrapping a natural food preserving molecule, carvacrol, into a mesoporous MIL-100(Fe) material following a direct and biocompatible impregnation method, and obtaining particularly high payloads. By exploiting the intrinsic redox nature of the MIL-100(Fe) material, it is possible to achieve a prolonged activity against Escherichia coli and Listeria i…

A robust nanoporous supramolecular metal–organic framework based on ionic hydrogen bonds

2014

International audience; Hydrogen-bond assembly of tripod-like organic cations [H3-MeTrip]3+ (1,2,3-tri(4′-pyridinium-oxyl)-2-methylpropane) and the hexa-anionic complex [Zr2(oxalate)7]6− leads to a structurally, thermally, and chemically robust porous 3D supramolecular framework showing channels of 1 nm in width. Permanent porosity has been ascertained by analyzing the material at the single-crystal level during a sorption cycle. The framework crystal structure was found to remain the same for the native compound, its activated phase, and after guest resorption. The channels exhibit affinities for polar organic molecules ranging from simple alcohols to aniline. Halogenated molecules and I2 …

Expanding the NUIG MOF family: synthesis and characterization of new MOFs for selective CO2 adsorption, metal ion removal from aqueous systems, and d…

2021

Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted considerable attention in recent years due to their use in a wide range of environmental, industrial and biomedical applications. The employment of benzophenone-4,4'-dicarboxylic acid (bphdcH2) in MOF chemistry provided access to the 3D mixed metal MOFs [CoNa2(bphdc)2(DMF)2]n (NUIG2) and [ZnK2(bphdc)2(DMF)2]n (NUIG3), and the 2D homometallic MOF [Co2(OH)(bphdcH)2(DMF)2(H2O)2]n(OH)·DMF (1·DMF). 1·DMF is based on a dinuclear SBU and consists of interpenetrating networks with an sql topology. Dc magnetic susceptibility studies were carried out in 1·DMF and revealed the presence of weak antiferomagnetic exchange interactions between the metal centr…

MMX Chains and Molecular Species Containing Rh 2 n+ ( n = 4, 5, and 6) Units: Electrical Conductivity in Crystal Phase of MMX Polymers

2010

The control of the experimental conditions in the reaction of Rh 2 (O 2 CCH 3 ) 4 with halides allows the isolation of the novel dirhodium complexes K x [Rh 2 X(O 2 CCH 3 ) 4 ] x ·4xH 2 O (X = Br, 1·4H 2 O and I, 2·4H 2 O) [Rh 2 (O 2 CCH 3 ) 4 Cl] x H 2 O (3·H 2 O), [Rh 2 (O 2 CCH 3 )Cl] x ·4xH 2 O (3·4H 2 O), and {Rh 2 (O 2 CCH 3 ) 4 I 2 ]· 4H 2 0 (4·4H 2 O) containing Rh 2 n+ (n = 4, 5 and 6) units. The X-ray structure determination of compounds 1-4 reveals the presence of dirhodium units in different oxidation states. The polyanionic complexes 1·4H 2 O and 2·4H 2 O containing Rh 2 4+ units give zig-zag chains. In contrast, the partially oxidized complexes 3·H 2 O and 3·4H 2 O containing …
