TLDR
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.Abstract:
The long-standing challenge of designing and constructing new crystalline solid-state materials from molecular building blocks is just beginning to be addressed with success. A conceptual approach that requires the use of secondary building units to direct the assembly of ordered frameworks epitomizes this process: we call this approach reticular synthesis. This chemistry has yielded materials designed to have predetermined structures, compositions and properties. In particular, 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.read more

Design and Generation of Extended Zeolitic Metal–Organic Frameworks (ZMOFs): Synthesis and Crystal Structures of Zinc(II) Imidazolate Polymers with Zeolitic Topologies
TL;DR: By modulating the synthetic strategy based on the solvothermal and liquid diffusion method, seven further MOFs (including at least three zeolitic MOFs) of zinc(II) imidazolates, [Zn(im)2.x G] (G=guest molecule, x=0.2-1) 1 a-7 a, have been successfully synthesized.

TL;DR: Low-pressure adsorption of carbon dioxide and nitrogen was studied in both acidic and copper-exchanged forms of SSZ-13, a zeolite containing an 8-ring window, and ascribe the CO(2) over N(2), which has important implications for use of zeolites in separations, to differences in binding sites for the two gases.

Hybrid zeolitic imidazolate frameworks with catalytically active TO4 building blocks.
TL;DR: This work was seeking to integrate compositional and structural features of zeolites and ZIFs by combining TO4 tetrahedra with zinc–imidazolate units, which presents a new class of porous materials filling the gap between zeolite-like structures and Zifs.

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.
