Journal ArticleDOI
Convenient synthesis of Cu3(BTC)2 encapsulated Keggin heteropolyacid nanomaterial for application in catalysis
Lik Hong Wee,Sneha Bajpe,Nikki Janssens,Ive Hermans,Kristof Houthoofd,Christine E. A. Kirschhock,Johan A. Martens +6 more
TL;DR: Nanomaterial of Cu(3)(BTC)(2) (BTC = benzene tricarboxylic acid) incorporating Keggin heteropolyacid conveniently prepared at room temperature and recovered by freeze drying outperforms ultrastable Y zeolite in acid catalysed esterification reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct Observation of Molecular‐Level Template Action Leading to Self‐Assembly of a Porous Framework
Sneha Bajpe,Christine E. A. Kirschhock,Alexander Aerts,Eric Breynaert,Gregory Absillis,Tatjana N. Parac-Vogt,Lars Giebeler,Johan A. Martens +7 more
TL;DR: This is a unique instance in which a templating mechanism that relies on specific molecular-level matching and leads to explicit nanoscale building units can be observed in situ during formation of the synthetic nanoporous material.
Journal ArticleDOI
Copper benzene tricarboxylate metal-organic framework with wide permanent mesopores stabilized by Keggin polyoxometallate ions.
Lik Hong Wee,Christian Wiktor,Stuart Turner,Willem Vanderlinden,Nikki Janssens,Sneha Bajpe,Kristof Houthoofd,Gustaaf Van Tendeloo,Steven De Feyter,Christine E. A. Kirschhock,Johan A. Martens +10 more
TL;DR: This work shows the rational development of an hierarchical variant of the microporous cubic Cu(3)(BTC)(2) (BTC = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate) HKUST-1 MOF having strictly repetitive 5 nm wide mesopores separated by uniformmicroporous walls in a single crystal structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stability improvement of Cu3(BTC)2 metal-organic frameworks under steaming conditions by encapsulation of a Keggin polyoxometalate.
TL;DR: Cu(3)(BTC)(2) with an incorporated Keggin polyoxometalate was demonstrated to be stable under steaming conditions up to 483 K, while the isostructural HKUST-1 degrades and transforms into [Cu(2)OH(BTC)(H( 2)O)](n)·2nH(1)O from 343 K onwards.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extreme Flexibility in a Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework: Porous to Dense Phase Transition in Desolvated ZIF‐4
Michael T. Wharmby,Sebastian Henke,Thomas D. Bennett,Sneha Bajpe,Inke Schwedler,Stephen P. Thompson,Fabia Gozzo,Petra Simoncic,Caroline Mellot-Draznieks,Haizheng Tao,Yuanzheng Yue,Yuanzheng Yue,Anthony K. Cheetham +12 more
TL;DR: The mechanism of the phase transition involves a cooperative rotation of imidazolate linkers resulting in isotropic framework contraction and pore space minimization and the energy of the new structure relative to those of the room temperature phase and ZIF-zni is established.
