Thiol-functionalization of metal-organic framework by a facile coordination-based postsynthetic strategy and enhanced removal of Hg2+ from water.

TLDR
Thiol-functionalization of MOFs is described by choosing a well known three-dimensional Cu-based MOF, i.e. [Cu(3)(BTC)(2)(H(2)O)(3)](n) (HKUST-1), by a facile coordination-based postsynthetic strategy, and their application for removal of heavy metal ion from water is demonstrated.
