Epitaxial growth of MOF-on-MOF composite is an evolving research topic in the quest for multifunctional materials. In previously reported methods, core-shell MOFs were synthesized via a stepwise strategy that involved growing shell-MOFs on top preformed core-MOFs with matched lattice parameters. However, inconvenient synthesis and strict lattice-matching requirement have limited preparation MOFs. Herein, we demonstrate hybrid mismatching lattices can be under guidance nucleation kinetic...

Abstract The controlled synthesis of multicomponent metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) allows for the precise placement multiple cooperative functional groups within a framework, leading to emergent synergistic effects. Herein, we demonstrate that turn‐on fluorescence sensors can be assembled by combining fluorophore and recognition moiety complex cavity MOF. An anthracene‐based fluorescent linker hemicyanine‐containing CN − ‐responsive were sequentially installed into lattice PCN‐700....

Zirconium-based metal-organic frameworks (Zr-MOFs) exhibit great structural tunability and outstanding chemical stability, rendering them promising candidates for a wide range of practical applications. In this work, we synthesized series isostructural PCN-224 analogues functionalized by ethyl, bromo, chloro, fluoro groups on the porphyrin unit, which allowed us to explicitly study effects electron-donating electron-withdrawing substituents catalytic performance in MOFs. Owing different...

The utilization of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in organic transformations is great interest due to their superior oxidative abilities under mild conditions. Recently, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been developed as photosensitizers transfer molecular ROS for photochemical synthesis. However, visible-light responsive MOFs activation remains scarce. Now we design and synthesize two porous MOFs, namely, PCN-822(M) (M = Zr, Hf), which are constructed by a 4,5,9,10-(K-region) substituted...

Organic molecules with nonlinear optical behavior have advanced a wide range of fields spanning from integrated photonics to biological imaging. With advances in microscopy, an emerging application is multifunctional organic imaging agents. Unlike conventional probes which simply emit light through single or multi photon processes, materials allow systems be simultaneously imaged and controlled. In this work, we report molecular probe for modulating reporting electric fields. The molecule...
