Article Abstract

The creation of defects in crystalline structures can tune metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) properties, such as improving their adsorptive and catalytic performance with producing more porosity and active sites. In this work, the bimetallic UiO-66 containing Zn and Zr was prepared. And then UiO-66 with missing cluster defects (UiO-66-1/3) were obtained by acid washing to remove the Zn nodes. UiO-66-1/3 was used as sorbent of dispersive solid-phase extraction (dSPE) to extract and enrich (BUs). Combination with high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector (HPLC-DAD) was developed to detect trace BUs in soil samples. Adsorption equilibrium can be reached in 3 min. The method possesses high enrichment factor (202-325), low detection limit (0.005-0.04 ng·mL), and wide linear range (0.02-200 ng·mL). In addition, the recovery rate of UiO-66-1/3 as an adsorbent was still higher than 95% after reused for 16 times. This work provides a new material for the enrichment and detection of benzoylurea insecticides in the environment.

By combining in situ X-ray diffraction, Zr K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy and H and C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, we show that the properties of the final MOF are influenced by HO and HCl via affecting the nucleation and crystal growth at the molecular level. The nucleation implies hydrolysis of monomeric zirconium chloride complexes into zirconium-oxo species, and this process is promoted by HO and inhibited by HCl, allowing to control crystal size by adjusting HO/Zr and HCl/Zr ratios. The rate-determining step of crystal growth is represented by the condensation of monomeric and oligomeric zirconium-oxo species into clusters, or nodes, with the structure identical to that in secondary building units (SBU) of UiO-66 framework.

Article Synopsis
  • Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) like Zr- and Hf-UiO-66 have been investigated for their ability to degrade chemical warfare agents, specifically organophosphorus nerve agents.
  • The study utilized vibrational spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to analyze how well dimethyl phosphite (DMP), a simulant for Soman, adsorbs and degrades in MOF structures with varying particle sizes and types of defects.
  • Findings indicate that defective Hf-UiO-66 with more missing cluster defects enhances the hydrolysis of DMP due to increased accessibility to Lewis-acidic sites, suggesting optimal MOF design should focus on maximizing surface area and internal volume for efficient degradation reactions.

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are harmful chemicals that are found in minute quantities in the atmosphere and are emitted from a variety of industrial and biological processes. They can be harmful to breathe or serve as biomarkers for disease detection. Therefore, capture and detection of VOCs is important.

Article Synopsis
  • Separating lanthanide elements from aqueous mixtures is difficult, but ion-selective capture using porous materials like metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) shows promise.
  • Understanding the local coordination environment of lanthanides (Nd(III), Gd(III), Lu(III)) within specific MOFs (Cr-MIL-101, UiO-66, UiO-68) is essential for designing effective ion-selective MOFs.
  • Functionalizing MOFs with specific groups can enhance lanthanide capture by improving interactions at metal oxo cluster sites and enabling selective binding over metal sites.
