Recent Bio-Advances in Metal-Organic Frameworks.

ABSTRACT: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have found uses in adsorption, catalysis, gas storage and other industrial applications. Metal Biomolecule Frameworks (bioMOFs) represent an overlap between inorganic, material and medicinal sciences, utilising the porous frameworks for biologically relevant purposes. This review details advances in bioMOFs, looking at the synthesis, properties and applications of both bioinspired materials and MOFs used for bioapplications, such as drug delivery, imaging and catalysis, with a focus on examples from the last five years.

Project description:Metal-organic frameworks are a class of porous crystalline materials based on the ordered connection of metal centers or metal clusters by organic linkers with comprehensive functionalities. The interest in these materials is rapidly moving towards their application in industry and real life. In this context, cheap and sustainable synthetic strategies of MOFs with tailored structures and functions are nowadays a topic widely studied from different points of view. In this review, fluorinated MOFs (F-MOFs) and their applications are investigated. The principal aim is to provide an overview of the structural features and the main application of MOFs containing fluorine atoms both as anionic units or as coordinating elements of more complex inorganic units and, therefore, directly linked to the structural metals or as part of fluorinated linkers used in the synthesis of MOFs. Herein we present a review of F-MOFs reported in the recent literature compared to benchmark compounds published over the last 10 years. The compounds are discussed in terms of their structure and properties according to the aforementioned classification, with an insight into the different chemical nature of the bonds. The application fields of F-MOFs, especially in sustainability related issues, such as harmful gas sorption and separation, will also be discussed. F-MOFs are compounds containing fluorine atoms in their framework and they can be based on: (a) fluorinated metallic or semi-metallic anionic clusters or: (b) fluorinated organic linkers or (c) eventually containing both the building blocks. The nature of a covalent C-F bond in terms of length, charge separation and dipole moment sensibly differs from that of a partly ionic M-F (M = metal) one so that the two classes of materials (points a and b) have different properties and they find various application fields. The study shows how the insertion of polar M-F and C-F bonds in the MOF structure may confer several advantages in terms of interaction with gaseous molecules and the compounds can find application in gas sorption and separation. In addition, hydrophobicity tends to increase compared to non-fluorinated analogues, resulting in an overall improvement in moisture stability.
