The targeted design and simulation of a new family zeolitic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) based on benzenedicarboxylate (BDC) as the ligand epsilon-type Keggin polyoxometalates (POMs) building units, named here Z-POMOFs, have been performed. A key feature is use analogy between connectivity silicon in dense minerals zeolites with that POMs capped Zn(II) ions. Handling epsilon-Keggin block, selection 21 zeotype structures, together series were constructed their relative stabilities...
We use periodic DFT calculations to compute the total energy of known zeolitic imidazole frameworks (ZIFs) together with those hypothetical porous ZIFs. show that ZIFs decreases increasing density, in a similar fashion alumino-silicate zeolites, but more complex landscape. The computational evaluation stability is useful search for viable synthesis targets. Our results suggest number hitherto undiscovered nanoporous topologies should be amenable (CAN, ATN) and even most open framework types...

Computer simulations show that iron substitution at the octahedral centres of porphyrin-based metal–organic frameworks leads to optimal band structures for photocatalysis.
Abstract We report a new family of titanium–organic frameworks that enlarges the limited number crystalline, porous materials available for this metal. They are chemically robust and can be prepared as single crystals at multi‐gram scale from multiple precursors. Their heterometallic structure enables engineering their photoactivity by metal doping rather than linker functionalization. Compared to other methodologies based on post‐synthetic metallation MOFs, our approach is well‐fitted...
Density functional theory calculations reveal that the electronic structure of a family porphyrin-based metal–organic frameworks is suitable for photocatalysis water splitting and carbon dioxide reduction reactions.
Abstract Tuning the electronic structure of metal–organic frameworks is key to extending their functionality photocatalytic conversion absorbed gases. Herein we discuss how band edge positions in zeolitic imidazolate (ZIFs) can be tuned by mixing different imidazole‐based linkers within same structure. We present alignment for a number known and hypothetical Zn‐based ZIFs with respect vacuum level. Structures single type linker exhibit relatively wide gaps; however, low‐lying conduction...

Four coordination networks based on the {ε-PMoV8MoVI4O40(OH)4Zn4} Keggin unit (εZn) have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. (TBA)3{PMoV8MoVI4O36(OH)4Zn4}[C6H4(COO)2]2 (ε(isop)22) is a 2D material with monomeric εZn units connected via 1,3 benzenedicarboxylate (isop) linkers and tetrabutylammonium (TBA) counter-cations lying between planes.

Molecular valves are becoming popular for potential biomedical applications. However, little is known concerning their performance in energy and environmental areas. Zeolite RHO shows unique pore deformations upon changes hydration, cation siting, type, or temperature-pressure conditions. By varying the level of distortion double eight-rings, it possible to control adsorption properties, which confer a molecular valve behavior this material. We have employed interatomic potentials-based...
Ge substitution for Si in zeolites containing double-four-membered rings is far more complex than thought.
In this study, ZIF-8 MOF nanocrystals were synthesized and post-synthetically modified by applying different cation exchange strategies. Addition of cadmium nitrate in either methanol or DMF followed magnetic stirring gentle heating led to the incorporation a small amount Cd (II) ions into crystal structure most cases, as clearly demonstrated several characterization techniques including PXRD, SEM-EDS FT-IR. This novel doped material exhibits high fluorescence with maximum emission...
Zeolite stability, in terms of lattice energy, is revisited from a crystal-chemistry point view. A linearized equation relates the zeolite energy using simple structural data readily available experiments or modeling.
