TL;DR: In this article, the reaction of M(II) acetate hydrate (M = Co, Ni, and Zn) with 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid yields a material formulated as M3(BTC)2·12H2O.
Abstract: The reaction of M(II) acetate hydrate (M = Co, Ni, and Zn) with 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic (BTC) acid yields a material formulated as M3(BTC)2·12H2O. These compounds are isostructural as revealed by their XRPD patterns and a single crystal structure analysis performed on the cobalt containing solid [monoclinic, space group C2, a = 17.482 (6) A, b = 12.963 (5) A, c = 6.559 (2) A, β = 112.04°, V = 1377.8 (8) A, Z = 4]. This solid is composed of zigzag chains of tetra-aqua cobalt(II) benzenetricarboxylate that are hydrogen-bonded to yield a tightly held 3-D network. Upon liberating 11 water ligands per formula unit a porous solid results, M3(BTC)2·H2O, which was found to reversibly and repeatedly bind water without destruction of the framework. The proposed 1-D channels of the monohydrate have a pore diameter of 4 × 5 A, which is typical of those observed in zeolites and molecular sieves. The successful inclusion of ammonia into the porous solid was demonstrated. Larger molecules and others without a reactiv...

TL;DR: A series of isostructural metal-organic framework polymers of composition [Cu2(L)(H2O)2] (L= tetracarboxylate ligands), denoted NOTT-nnn, has been synthesized and characterized and it is suggested that introducing methyl groups or using kinked ligands to create smaller pores can enhance the isosteric heat of adsorption and improve H2 adsorptive capacity.
Abstract: A series of isostructural metal−organic framework polymers of composition [Cu2(L)(H2O)2] (L= tetracarboxylate ligands), denoted NOTT-nnn, has been synthesized and characterized. Single crystal X-ray structures confirm the complexes to contain binuclear Cu(II) paddlewheel nodes each bridged by four carboxylate centers to give a NbO-type network of 64·82 topology. These complexes are activated by solvent exchange with acetone coupled to heating cycles under vacuum to afford the desolvated porous materials NOTT-100 to NOTT-109. These incorporate a vacant coordination site at each Cu(II) center and have large pore volumes that contribute to the observed high H2 adsorption. Indeed, NOTT-103 at 77 K and 60 bar shows a very high total H2 adsorption of 77.8 mg g−1 equivalent to 7.78 wt% [wt% = (weight of adsorbed H2)/(weight of host material)] or 7.22 wt% [wt% = 100(weight of adsorbed H2)/(weight of host material + weight of adsorbed H2)]. Neutron powder diffraction studies on NOTT-101 reveal three adsorption sit...

TL;DR: In this paper, a new series of lanthanide metal-organic frameworks, LnL (Ln = La, Y, Eu, Tb, and Gd), were prepared under hydrothermal conditions.
Abstract: A new series of lanthanide metal–organic frameworks, LnL (Ln = La, Y, Eu, Tb, and Gd), were prepared under hydrothermal conditions. The five compounds are all isostructural as confirmed by the analyses of single crystal and powder X-ray diffractions. The compounds exhibit layer-like structures with the [H2NMe2]+ cations being located in the interlayer channels, which can be easily replaced by a number of metal ions. Most interestingly, compound EuL performs as a rare example of a highly selective and sensitive luminescence sensor for Fe3+ ions based on total quenching of the Eu-luminescence via cation-exchange. The possible sensing mechanism was further explored in detail. Remarkably, it is the first Eu-MOF luminescent material to exhibit an excellent ability for the detection of Fe3+ ions in a biological system.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that the oxygen diffusivity in Gd 0.5Ba0.5MnO3−δ can be enhanced by inducing crystallographic ordering among lanthanide and alkali-earth ions in the A-site sublattice.
Abstract: The oxygen-exchange behavior has been studied in half-doped manganese and cobalt perovskite oxides. We have found that the oxygen diffusivity in Gd0.5Ba0.5MnO3−δ can be enhanced by orders of magnitude by inducing crystallographic ordering among lanthanide and alkali-earth ions in the A-site sublattice. Transformation of a simple cubic perovskite, with randomly occupied A sites, into a layered crystal GdBaMn2O5+x (or isostructural GdBaCo2O5+x for cobalt oxide) with alternating lanthanide and alkali-earth planes reduces the oxygen bonding strength and provides disorder-free channels for ion motion, pointing to an efficient way to design new ionic conductors.
