Rought, P., Marsh, C., Pili, S., Silverwood, I. P., Sakai, V. G., Li, M., Brown, M. S., Argent, S. P., Vitorica-Yrezabal, I., Whitehead, G., Warren, M. R., Yang, S., & Schröder, M. (2018). Modulating proton diffusion and conductivity in metal–organic frameworks by incorporation of accessible free carboxylic acid groups. Chemical Science, 10(5), 1492-1499. https://doi.org/10.1039/c8sc03022g

Three multi-carboxylic acid functionalised ligands have been designed, synthesised and utilised to prepare the new barium-based MOFs, MFM-510, -511, and -512, which show excellent stability to water-vapour. MFM-510 and MFM-511 show moderate proton co... Read More about Modulating proton diffusion and conductivity in metal–organic frameworks by incorporation of accessible free carboxylic acid groups.

In order to develop new porous materials for applications in gas separations such as natural gas upgrading, landfill gas processing and acetylene purification it is vital to gain understanding of host-substrate interactions at a molecular level. Here... Read More about Host–guest selectivity in a series of isoreticular metal–organic frameworks: observation of acetylene-to-alkyne and carbon dioxide-to-amide interactions.
