Fe-MOFs were prepared using a solvothermal method, and were characterized by scanning electron microscopy. We explored the application of Fe-MOFs as an adsorbing material for the removal of Rhodamine B (RhB) from aqueous solutions. The experimental data were simulated by dynamics and the results showed that the pseudo–second-order kinetics model was appropriate for analysis of RhB removal. We studied the adsorption capacity of MOF materials under different masses, concentrations, and pH conditions. When the pH was 6, the maximum adsorption capacity within 4 h was 135 mg/g. In summation, the removal of RhB from wastewater using MOFs is feasible, inexpensive, and effective. Hence, our findings indicate that MOFs have a broad application in the purification of wastewater.Keywords:metal-organic frameworks;organic dye;wastewater

Efficient separation of ethane (C 2 H 6 ) from ethylene (C 2 H 4 ) using C 2 H 6 -selective adsorbents is more efficient but challenging due to their similar physical and chemical properties. Herein, we report a Zn (II) cluster-based metal-organic framework, Zn 4 O(NTB) 2 , with suitable cavity pockets and favorable adsorption sites for the reverse capture of C 2 H 6 from C 2 H 6 /C 2 H 4 mixtures. Both high C 2 H 6 uptake (2.83 mmol g −1 ) and C 2 H 6 /C 2 H 4 selectivity (2.06) at 273 K and 1 bar was achieved, outperforming many top-ranking C 2 H 6 -selective adsorbents. Moreover, dispersion-corrected density functional theory (DFT) and grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulation revealed that C H···O and C H···π interactions are formed with C 2 H 6 in the suitable pockets with saturated Zn clusters and nonpolar pore surfaces. Dynamic breakthrough experiments demonstrated its practical separation performances with various gas-mixture compositions and those containing water vapor.

In this paper, the as-prepared metal-organic frameworks material UiO-66 and other Zr-MOFs were directly used as catalytic transfer hydrogenation (CTH) catalysts to catalyze furfural (FF) to furfuryl alcohol (FAL) with 2-propanol (IPA) acted as both solvent and hydrogen donor. The results showed that the as-prepared UiO-66 had satisfactory catalytic activity and selectivity in yielding FAL (97 %) from the CTH of FF at 140 °C within 5 h. Moreover, the as-prepared UiO-66 exhibited relatively stable catalytic activity over five cycles and easy regeneration. Interestingly, UiO-66 was also applicable for the CTH of the other aldehydes such as 5-hydroxymethyfurfural, 5-methylfurfural, 4-methoxybenzaldehyde, and n-hexanal to the corresponding alcohols, affording high product yields up to 98 %. This work provides a green, simple and sustainable process for the catalytic production of FAL from biomass-based furfural, which has certain significance for the sustainable utilization of biomass.

The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is a crucial step in fuel cells and metal-air batteries. It is necessary to expand the range of efficient non-precious ORR electrocatalysts on account of the low abundance and high cost of Pt/C catalysts. Herein, we synthesized crystalline cobalt-embedded N-doped carbon nanotubes (Co@CNTs-T) via facile carbonization of Co/Zn metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with dicyandiamide at different temperatures (t = 600, 700, 800, 900 °C). Co@CNTs- 800 possessed excellent ORR activities in alkaline electrolytes with a half wave potential of 0.846 V vs. RHE (Reversible Hydrogen Electrode), which was comparable to Pt/C. This three-dimensional network, formed by Co@CNTs-T, facilitated electron migration and ion diffusion during the ORR process. The carbon shell surrounding the Co nanoparticles resulted in Co@CNTs-800 being stable as an electrocatalyst. This work provides a new strategy to design efficient and low-cost oxygen catalysts.Keywords:metal-organic frameworks;N-doped carbon;oxygen reduction reaction

A new structural metal–organic framework with fluorescence properties, namely Zn4(BTC)2(OH)2(CH3OH)6 (NJMU-001), was synthesized by using 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (H3BTC) and zinc nitrate through a solvothermal reaction. In order to obtain good single crystals of NJMU-001, the factors affecting the reaction, such as the reaction temperature, reaction time, solvent and metal salt/ligand molar ratios, were studied. The phase purity of NJMU-001 was investigated via powder X-ray diffraction analysis, elemental analysis and FT-IR spectroscopy. Gas sorption measurements revealed that NJMU-001 was microporous and thermogravimetric analysis indicated that it was thermally stable under 200 °C. Fluorescence study of NJMU-001 in an N,N-dimethylformamide medium showed blue emission at 435 nm upon excitation at 370 nm. This emissive property was used for sensitive sensing of toxic and explosive nitroaromatics by exhibiting fluorescence quenching.

The major discovery here is a robust and water-stable metal–organic framework (MOF) material capable of reversible binding of the volatile and reactive molecules of ICl and I2. The immobilization of I2 and ICl, as well as their controllable release thus achieved, is to facilitate the wide-ranging applications of these volatile species as catalysts and reagents in chemical and industrial processes. The framework material TMBP·CuI (hereafter TCuI) can be conveniently prepared in quantitative yields by heating CuI and the organic linker TMBP (3,3′,5,5′-tetramethyl-4,4′-bipyrazol) in acetonitrile. The microporous three-dimensional net of TCuI features CuI chains that contribute to efficient and reversible binding of ICl and I2 molecules, to result in the stoichiometrically well-defined adducts of TCuI·ICl and TCuI·I2, respectively. Moreover, the confinement of a volatile compound like ICl within the MOF medium provides unique opportunities to enhance its reactivity and selectivity as a chemical reagent, as is exemplified by the iodination reactions examined herein. With this exemplary study, we intend to stimulate interest in further exploring MOFs and other porous media (e.g., porous polymers) for entrapping ICl and other volatile reagents (e.g., Br2, SCl2, S2Cl2, and SOCl2) and for potentially novel reactivity associated with the porous medium.

Patulin (PAT) is one of the most common toxic contaminants of apple juice, which causes severe food safety issues throughout the apple industry. In order to remove PAT efficiently, a metal-organic framework-based adsorbent (UiO-66(NH 2 )@Au-Cys) was successfully synthesized and used for PAT removal from juice-pH simulation solution and real apple juice. Batch adsorption experiments were systematically performed to study the adsorption behavior for PAT. The results showed that adsorption process could be well described by the Pseudo-second order model and Freundlich isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacity (4.38 µg/mg) was 10 times higher than the microbe-based biosorbents. Thermodynamic investigation demonstrated that adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. Furthermore, no marked cytotoxicity on NIH 3T3 cell lines was observed when the concentration of the adsorbent was lower than 10 μg/mL. Therefore, UiO-66(NH 2 )@Au-Cys is a potential adsorbent for PAT removal from apple juice with little quality changes.

The research for highly removal of uranium from nuclear waste is of significance for radionuclide remediation and environment. Herein, a robust pyrazolate-based metal-organic framework (NiBTP) is prepared by γ-irradiation through complexation between 1,3,5-tris(1H-pyrazol-4-yl) benzene (H 3 BTP) and Nickel (II) and presents efficient U(VI) adsorption performance. The synthesized NiBTP is characterized by XRD, FTIR, SEM, TEM, XPS and N 2 adsorption–desorption isotherm analysis. Structural characterizations demonstrate that NiBTP prepared by γ-irradiation possesses decreased BET surface area with hierarchical pore structure, but also has excellent crystallinity and high chemical stability. Batch experiments reveal that NiBTP adsorbent displays high adsorption capacity of uranium and excellent selectivity for UO 2 2+ ion in the presence of competing K + , Cs + , Sr + , Co 2+ , Mg 2+ , Ca 2+ , La 3+ and Eu 3+ ions. Thermodynamic investigation shows the adsorption process is endothermic and spontaneous. In addition, the adsorption mechanism of UO 2 2+ ion onto NiBTP is attributed to the hierarchical pore architecture as well as complexation. This study presents a simpler and more efficient alternative method for the preparation of pyrazolate MOFs and highlights the power of robust pyrazolate MOFs in sequestrations of radioactive pollutants from water environment.

Separation of CH 4 from natural gas is an essential but extremely challenging process in the petrochemical industry. Here, we tailored a MOF-based adsorbent with partitioned aliphatic pore spaces through the simultaneous incorporation of the aliphatic sites and the symmetrically matched partition agent. The resulting adsorbent demonstrates exceptional adsorption capacity for C 3 H 8 and C 2 H 6 compared to CH 4 , along with remarkably competitive adsorption selectivities for C 3 H 8 /CH 4 and C 2 H 6 /CH 4 . Breakthrough experiments further support the excellent dynamic separation efficiency of the adsorbent for the purification of CH 4 from natural gas. Moreover, detailed density functional theory calculations and molecular simulations elucidate the synergistic interactions between the aliphatic sites and the partitioned pore spaces within the adsorbent, which promote the stronger binding affinities for C 3 H 8 and C 2 H 6 over CH 4 .

The widespread use and subsequent release of antibiotics by humans and animals pose health and environmental risks, compelling their removal from aquatic ecosystems. MIL-101(Cr), a metal-organic framework (MOF), exhibits versatile applications in antibiotic adsorption owing to its exceptional structural characteristics. In this context, MIL-101(Cr) nanoparticles are successfully prepared via the hydrothermal method to remove pefloxacin (PEF) from aqueous solutions. The resulting MIL-101(Cr) adsorbents showcase high crystallinity (97.6%), a large surface area (3166 m 2 /g), broad nanopore sizes, good thermal stability, and efficient reusability. Factors including initial PEF concentration, pH, dosage of adsorbent, and temperature are thoroughly investigated. The findings reveal a good adsorption capacity (254.3 mg/g) with an optimal removal efficiency (99.7%) at 308 K in a neutral pH of 7.0 when the adsorbent dosage is 250 mg/L and the initial PEF concentration is 200 mg/L within 80 min of contact. Among the three adsorption isotherms (Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin models), the Langmuir equation best fits the studies, indicating a maximum adsorption capacity of 253.8 mg/g at 25°C, while the experimental equilibrium adsorption capacity is 229.2 mg/g at the same temperature. Adsorption kinetics aligns with the pseudo-second-order model. Thermodynamic parameters and activation energy affirm the endothermic and spontaneous behavior of the adsorption process, attributed to both physisorption and chemisorption. This study highlights the promising potential of synthesized MOF nanocrystals as an effective adsorbent for antibiotics in wastewater treatment and environmental remediation.

Metal nanomaterials have been reported as effective absorbents for the removal of pollutants in the water system, but the release of ions from these nanomaterials brings another concern. Herein, silver nanoclusters (AgNCs) were encapsulated in porous metal-organic frameworks of ZIF-8 (MOF-AgNCs). Compared to AgNCs, the release of Ag+significantly decreases from MOF-AgNCs, indicating that the product presents a lower threat to the environment. The MOF-AgNCs were employed for the rapid removal of heavy metals, such as Pb2+and Mn2+, from water. The mechanism and removal efficiencies were investigated.Keywords:nanoclusters;metal-organic frameworks;heavy metal ions

Metal–organic-frameworks (MOFs) (i.e., MOF(Fe), MOF(Co) and MOF(Cu)) were synthesized by a hydrothermal process. The prepared MOFs were characterized using X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and N 2 adsorption–desorption. The catalytic activities of the MOFs for the electrochemical synthesis of ammonia were evaluated when using N 2 (air) and water as raw materials at low temperature and ambient pressure. The results indicated that the prepared MOFs have fine crystalline structures, abundant micropores, and large specific surface areas. The prepared MOFs showed excellent catalytic activity for the electrochemical synthesis of ammonia at low temperature and ambient pressure. Among these MOFs, the MOF(Fe) displayed the best catalytic activity, and the highest ammonia formation rate and the highest current efficiency reached 2.12 × 10 −9 mol s −1 cm −2 and 1.43%, respectively, at 1.2 V and 90 °C, when using pure N 2 and water as raw materials. The prepared MOFs in this work showed remarkable catalytic activities for the electrochemical synthesis of ammonia at low temperature and ambient pressure among the non-noble metal catalysts. It was the first exploration to apply MOFs as the electrocatalysts for the electrochemical synthesis of ammonia at low temperature and ambient pressure.
