TL;DR: MOF-801-P and MOF-841 are the highest performers based on the three criteria stated above; they are water stable, do not lose capacity after five adsorption/desorption cycles, and are easily regenerated at room temperature.

TL;DR: A strategy to expand the pore aperture of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) into a previously unattained size regime (>32 angstroms) is reported, as evidenced by their permanent porosity and high thermal stability (up to 300°C).

TL;DR: Since the organic constituents of COFs, when linked, do not undergo significant change in their overall geometry, it has been possible to predict the structures of the resulting COF, and this advantage has facilitated their characterization using powder X-ray diffraction techniques, which has allowed for the synthesis of COF structures by design and for their formation with the desired composition, pore size, and aperture.

TL;DR: Two porphyrin-containing MOFs were metalated with iron(III) and copper(II) to yield the metalated analogues without losing their high surface area and chemical stability.

TL;DR: Two types of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) having a porphyrin unit have been synthesized as discussed by the authors, and the two COFs have shown very high charge carrier mobility values (8.1 cm2 V−1 s−1).
