Enantioselective catalysis with homochiral metal–organic frameworks

TL;DR: Although still in their infancy, homochiral MOFs have clearly demonstrated their utility in heterogeneous asymmetric catalysis, and a bright future is foreseen for the development of practically useful homochirl MOFs in the production of optically pure organic molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

A series of isoreticular chiral metal-organic frameworks as a tunable platform for asymmetric catalysis.

TL;DR: This work demonstrates the systematic design of eight mesoporous chiral metal-organic frameworks, with the framework formula [LCu2(solvent)2] (where L is a chiral tetracarboxylate ligand derived from 1,1'-bi-2-naphthol), that have the same structures but channels of different sizes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Postsynthetically Modified Covalent Organic Frameworks for Efficient and Effective Mercury Removal.

TL;DR: This work demonstrates how two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with well-defined mesopore structures display the right combination of properties to serve as a scaffold for decorating coordination sites to create ideal adsorbents in environmental remediation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Materials for the Recovery of Uranium from Seawater

TL;DR: This review comprehensively surveys materials developed from 2000-2016 for recovery of seawater uranium, in particular including recent developments in inorganic materials; polymer adsorbents and related research pertaining to amidoxime; and nanostructured materials such as metal-organic frameworks, porous-organic polymers, and mesoporous carbons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Highly porous and stable metal–organic frameworks for uranium extraction

TL;DR: In this article, three metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) of the UiO-68 network topology were prepared using the amino-TPDC or TPDC bridging ligands containing orthogonal phosphorylurea groups, and investigated for sorption of uranium from water and artificial seawater.
