TLDR
Wet stamping allows metal–organic framework (MOF) crystals to be imprinted with micropatterns of various organic chemicals which change their appearance upon contact with specific chemicals, thus reporting the environmental “status” of the crystal.
Abstract
Wet stamping allows metal–organic framework (MOF) crystals to be imprinted with micropatterns of various organic chemicals. Printing the MOFs with photochromic molecules and pH indicators generates stimuli-responsive micropatterns which change their appearance upon contact with specific chemicals (see picture), thus reporting the environmental “status” of the crystal.

MOF positioning technology and device fabrication

TL;DR: In this review, the current technologies that enable the precise positioning of MOFs onto different platforms are presented and examples of devices in which the control of MOF position and functionalisation will play a major technological role are presented.

Surveying macrocyclic chemistry: from flexible crown ethers to rigid cyclophanes

TL;DR: This Review surveys the recent developments of the chemistry of naturally occurring cyclodextrins, along with a variety of synthetic flexible and rigid macrocycles that have drawn their inspiration from Pedersen's ground-breaking discovery of crown ethers in the mid-1960s.

Strong and reversible binding of carbon dioxide in a green metal-organic framework.

TL;DR: The highly selective adsorption of CO(2) by CD-MOF-2, a recently described green MOF consisting of the renewable cyclic oligosaccharide γ-cyclodextrin and RbOH, by what is believed to be reversible carbon fixation involving carbonate formation and decomposition at room temperature is reported.

Nanoporous Carbohydrate Metal–Organic Frameworks

TL;DR: These new MOFs demonstrate that the CDs can indeed function as ligands for alkali and alkaline earth metal cations in a manner similar to that found with crown ethers, which make them realistic candidates for commercial development.

Reticular synthesis and the design of new materials

TL;DR: This work has shown that highly porous frameworks held together by strong metal–oxygen–carbon bonds and with exceptionally large surface area and capacity for gas storage have been prepared and their pore metrics systematically varied and functionalized.

Systematic Design of Pore Size and Functionality in Isoreticular MOFs and Their Application in Methane Storage

TL;DR: Metal-organic framework (MOF-5), a prototype of a new class of porous materials and one that is constructed from octahedral Zn-O-C clusters and benzene links, was used to demonstrate that its three-dimensional porous system can be functionalized with the organic groups and can be expanded with the long molecular struts biphenyl, tetrahydropyrene, pyrene, and terphenyl.
