A Coordinative Solubilizer Method to Fabricate Soft Porous Materials from Insoluble Metal–Organic Polyhedra

Porous molecular cages have a characteristic processability arising from their solubility, which allows their incorporation into porous materials. Attaining solubility often requires covalently bound functional groups that are unnecessary for porosity and which ultimately occupy free volume in the materials, decreasing their surface areas. Here, a method is described that takes advantage of the coordination bonds in metal–organic polyhedra (MOPs) to render insoluble MOPs soluble by reversibly attaching an alkyl‐functionalized ligand. We then use the newly soluble MOPs as monomers for supramolecular polymerization reactions, obtaining permanently porous, amorphous polymers with the shape of colloids and gels, which display increased gas uptake in comparison with materials made with covalently functionalized MOPs.     

Stabilizing Metal–Organic Polyhedra (MOP): Issues and Strategies

Metal–organic polyhedra (MOPs) are discrete, metal–organic molecular entities composed of edge‐sharing molecular polygons or connected molecular vertices. Unlike the infinite metal–organic coordination networks popularized by metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), spherical MOPs, also known as nanocages, nanospheres, nanocapsules, or nanoballs, are obtained through the self‐organization of metal–carboxylate or metal–pyridine/pyrimidine links to afford cage‐like nanoarchitectures. MOPs offer much promise as porous materials owing to their well‐defined structures and solution processability. However, these advantages become moot if their poor aqueous stability and/or guest‐removal‐induced aggregation handicaps remain unaddressed. The concise premise of this contribution limits our discussion to the design principles in action behind recent developments in stable carboxylate MOPs. To highlight the structure–property relationships between the structural and compositional features of these metal carboxylate polyhedra, related scientific challenges and state‐of‐the‐art research directions for further exploration are presented in brief.     

Hydrophobic Shielding of Outer Surface: Enhancing the Chemical Stability of Metal–Organic Polyhedra

Metal–organic polyhedra (MOP) are a promising class of crystalline porous materials with multifarious potential applications. Although MOPs and metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have similar potential in terms of their intrinsic porosities and physicochemical properties, the exploitation of carboxylate MOPs is still rudimentary because of the lack of systematic development addressing their chemical stability. Herein we describe the fabrication of chemically robust carboxylate MOPs via outer‐surface functionalization as an a priori methodology, to stabilize those MOPs system where metal–ligand bond is not so strong. Fine‐tuning of hydrophobic shielding is key to attaining chemical inertness with retention of the framework integrity over a wide range of pH values, in strong acidic conditions, and in oxidizing and reducing media. These results are further corroborated by molecular modelling studies. Owing to the unprecedented transition from instability to a chemically ultra‐stable regime using a rapid ambient‐temperature gram‐scale synthesis (within seconds), a prototype strategy towards chemically stable MOPs is reported.     

Mixed‐Matrix Membranes

Research into extended porous materials such as metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) and porous organic frameworks (POFs), as well as the analogous metal‐organic polyhedra (MOPs) and porous organic cages (POCs), has blossomed over the last decade. Given their chemical and structural variability and notable porosity, MOFs have been proposed as adsorbents for industrial gas separations and also as promising filler components for high‐performance mixed‐matrix membranes (MMMs). Research in this area has focused on enhancing the chemical compatibility of the MOF and polymer phases by judiciously functionalizing the organic linkers of the MOF, modifying the MOF surface chemistry, and, more recently, exploring how particle size, morphology, and distribution enhance separation performance. Other filler materials, including POFs, MOPs, and POCs, are also being explored as additives for MMMs and have shown remarkable anti‐aging performance and excellent chemical compatibility with commercially available polymers. This Review briefly outlines the state‐of‐the‐art in MOF‐MMM fabrication, and the more recent use of POFs and molecular additives.     

Morphology design of microporous organic polymers and their potential applications: an overview

Microporous organic polymers (MOPs) have attracted considerable research interest because of their well-defined porosity, high surface area, lightweight nature, and tunable surface chemistry. The morphology of MOPs are demonstrated to play a significant role in various applications although limited examples manifesting the importance of the MOP morphology in numerous applications have been reported. This review summarizes the recent progress in the design of MOPs using different techniques, including hard and soft template and direct synthesis methods. In addition, their applications, which possibly attribute to their shape, are discussed. Furthermore, the advantages and disadvantages of different methods are discussed, as well as their development and future challenges.     

Multiscale structural control of linked metal–organic polyhedra gel by aging-induced linkage-reorganization

Assembly of permanently porous metal–organic polyhedra/cages (MOPs) with bifunctional linkers leads to soft supramolecular networks featuring both porosity and processability. However, the amorphous nature of such soft materials complicates their characterization and thus limits rational structural control. Here we demonstrate that aging is an effective strategy to control the hierarchical network of supramolecular gels, which are assembled from organic ligands as linkers and MOPs as junctions. Normally, the initial gel formation by rapid gelation leads to a kinetically trapped structure with low controllability. Through a controlled post-synthetic aging process, we show that it is possible to tune the network of the linked MOP gel over multiple length scales. This process allows control on the molecular-scale rearrangement of interlinking MOPs, mesoscale fusion of colloidal particles and macroscale densification of the whole colloidal network. In this work we elucidate the relationships between the gel properties, such as porosity and rheology, and their hierarchical structures, which suggest that porosity measurement of the dried gels can be used as a powerful tool to characterize the microscale structural transition of their corresponding gels. This aging strategy can be applied in other supramolecular polymer systems particularly containing kinetically controlled structures and shows an opportunity to engineer the structure and the permanent porosity of amorphous materials for further applications.

By a controlled post-synthetic aging process, we demonstrate a protocol to induce the linkage reorganization in metal–organic polyhedra-linked gel networks, leading to the control of gel structures over multiple length scales and their properties.     

Exploitation of a microporous organic polymer as a stationary phase for capillary gas chromatography

Microporous organic polymers (MOPs) have emerged as a new class of functional porous materials with unique characteristics and potential uses in diverse areas. However, the field of MOPs for gas chromatographic (GC) separations has not been well explored. Herein, a MOP namely KAPs-1 was dynamic coated onto a capillary column for the first time. The fabricated column exhibited a nonpolar nature and the column efficiency for n-dodecane was up to 7769 plates m⁻¹. The KAPs-1 coated column showed high GC separation performance for a series of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) including the challenging ethylbenzene and xylene isomers, which could not be resolved at baseline on the commercial 5% phenyl polysiloxane stationary phase. Moreover, the relative standard deviations for five replicate determinations of the studied analytes were 0.0–0.6%, 0.9–3.2%, 1.1–5.9%, 0.8–3.7% for retention time, peak area, peak height and peak width, respectively. To investigate the interaction between some analytes and the stationary phase, thermodynamic and kinetic parameters were also evaluated. The results of this study show it is very promising to utilize MOPs as stationary phases for capillary GC.     

Porous Colloidal Hydrogels Formed by Coordination-Driven Self-Assembly of Charged Metal-Organic Polyhedra

Introduction of porosity into supramolecular gels endows soft materials with functionalities for molecular encapsulation, release, separation and conversion. Metal-organic polyhedra (MOPs), discrete coordination cages containing an internal cavity, have recently been employed as building blocks to construct polymeric gel networks with potential porosity. However, most of the materials can only be synthesized in organic solvents, and the examples of porous, MOP-based hydrogels are scarce. Here, we demonstrate the fabrication of porous hydrogels based on [Rh₂(OH-bdc)₂]₁₂, a rhodium-based MOP containing hydroxyl groups on its periphery (OH-bdc=5-hydroxy-1,3-benzenedicarboxylate). By simply deprotonating [Rh₂(OH-bdc)₂]₁₂ with the base NaOH, the supramolecular polymerization between MOPs and organic linkers can be induced in the aqueous solution, leading to the kinetically controllable formation of hydrogels with hierarchical colloidal networks. When heating the deprotonated MOP, Na_x[Rh₂₄(O-bdc)_x(OH-bdc)_24-x], to induce gelation, the MOP was found to partially decompose, affecting the mechanical property of the resulting gels. By applying a post-synthetic deprotonation strategy, we show that the deprotonation degree of the MOP can be altered after the gel formation without serious decomposition of the MOPs. Gas sorption measurements confirmed the permanent porosity of the corresponding aerogels obtained from these MOP-based hydrogels, showing potentials for applications in gas sorption and catalysis.     

Utilizing Reversible Interactions in Polymeric Nanoparticles To Generate Hollow Metal–Organic Nanoparticles

The use of reversible linkers in polymers has been of interest mainly for biomedical applications. Herein, we present a novel strategy to utilize reversible interactions in polymeric nanoparticles to generate hollow metal–organic nanoparticles (MOPs). These hollow MOPs are synthesized from self‐assembled polymeric nanoparticles using a simple metal–comonomer exchange process in a single step. The control over the size of the polymer precursor particles translates into a straightforward opportunity for controlling MOP sizes. The shell thickness of the MOPs could be easily tuned by the concentration of metal ions in solution. The underlying mechanism for the formation of these hollow MOPs has been proposed. Evidence for the generality of the method is provided by its application to a variety of metal ions with different coordination geometries.     

Self‐Templated Stepwise Synthesis of Monodispersed Nanoscale Metalated Covalent Organic Polymers for In Vivo Bioimaging and Photothermal Therapy

Size‐ and shape‐controlled growth of nanoscale microporous organic polymers (MOPs) is a big challenge scientists are confronted with; meanwhile, rendering these materials for in vivo biomedical applications is still scarce. In this study, a monodispersed nanometalated covalent organic polymer (MCOP, M=Fe, Gd) with sizes around 120 nm was prepared by a self‐templated two‐step solution‐phase synthesis method. The metal ions (Fe³⁺, Gd³⁺) played important roles in generating a small particle size and in the functionalization of the products during the reaction with p ‐phenylenediamine (Pa). The resultant Fe‐Pa complex was used as a template for the subsequent formation of MCOP following the Schiff base reaction with 1,3,5‐triformylphloroglucinol (Tp). A high tumor suppression efficiency for this Pa‐based COP is reported for the first time. This study demonstrates the potential use of MCOP as a photothermal agent for photothermal therapy (PTT) and also provides an alternative route to fabricate nano‐sized MCOPs.     

Cooperative Crystallization of Heterometallic Indium–Chromium Metal–Organic Polyhedra and Their Fast Proton Conductivity

Metal–organic polyhedra (MOPs) or frameworks (MOFs) based on Cr³⁺ are notoriously difficult to synthesize, especially as crystals large enough to be suitable for characterization of the structure or properties. It is now shown that the co‐existence of In³⁺ and Cr³⁺ induces a rapid crystal growth of large single crystals of heterometallic In‐Cr‐MOPs with the [M₈L₁₂] (M=In/Cr, L=dinegative 4,5‐imidazole‐dicarboxylate) cubane‐like structure. With a high concentration of protons from 12 carboxyl groups decorating every edge of the cube and an extensive H‐bonded network between cubes and surrounding H₂O molecules, the newly synthesized In‐Cr‐MOPs exhibit an exceptionally high proton conductivity (up to 5.8×10^?2 S cm^?1 at 22.5 °C and 98 % relative humidity, single crystal).     

Two new micro-isostructural metal–organic polymers based on mixed-ligand copper(I): Structures and selective sensing of nitro explosives in water

Two new one-dimensional metal–organic polymers (MOPs) {[Cu(L)(PPh₂Py)·I₂]·CH₃Cl}_n ( I ) and {[Cu(L)(PPh₂Py)·Br₂]·CH₃Cl}_n ( II ) (L = (1E,2E)-1,2-bis(pyridine-4-ylmethylene)hydrazine) (4-bpmh)) have been synthesized and elucidated by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The results of X-ray diffraction analysis unambiguously revealed that the two polymers are isostructural with the major intermolecular CH⋯π and π⋯π interactions. Microstructures of these polymers were also synthesized using a sonochemical method in different concentrations and reaction times. Field emission scanning electron microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis and IR spectroscopy were applied to fully characterize these compounds. The photoluminescent properties of microrod MOPs were also evaluated to add to our understanding of their potential ability for nitro compound sensing. These experiments showed that MOPs I and II are good luminescence sensors for detection of nitro explosives in aqueous media. The probes maintained their high sensitivity and selectivity for 4-nitrophenol (4-NP). The energy transfer process accompanied by electrostatic interactions of 4-NP with these MOPs can be considered as an influential reason for the selectivity of 4-NP. The competitive study of the quenching process has a6lso shown superior operation with microparticles compared with bulky polymers. These results indicate that this method may be useful to synthesize luminescent materials possessing good sensing properties.     

From Octahedral to Icosahedral Metal–Organic Polyhedra Assembled from Two Types of Polyoxovanadate Clusters

Design and synthesis of metal–organic polyhedra (MOPs) with targeted geometries from predetermined secondary building units (SBUs) is a long‐standing challenge in chemistry and material science. Theoretical prediction shows that there are 6 possible polyhedra from the 3‐coordinated, 4‐coordinated octahedron ((3,4)‐c octahedron) to (3,5)‐c icosahedron with minimal transitivity (simplest possible). Except for one missing polyhedron ( mtr ) due to the unfavorable angles, we report five MOPs based on these structures, including an octahedral (3,4)‐c VMOP‐ 21 ( rdo ), an icosahedral (3,5)‐c VMOP‐ 25 ( trc ), and three intermediate derived trinodal (3,4,5)‐c VMOP‐ 22 – 24 ( ghm , hmg , xum ). Remarkably, all these MOPs obey the minimal transitivity principle and are consistent with geometrical predictions.     

Supramolecular coordination chemistry of aromatic polyoxalamide ligands: A metallosupramolecular approach toward functional magnetic materials

The impressive potential of the metallosupramolecular approach in designing new functional magnetic materials constitutes a great scientific challenge for the chemical research community that requires an interdisciplinary collaboration. New fundamental concepts and future applications in nanoscience and nanotechnology will emerge from the study of magnetism as a supramolecular function in metallosupramolecular chemistry. Our recent work on the rich supramolecular coordination chemistry of a novel family of aromatic polyoxalamide (APOXA) ligands with first-row transition metal ions has allowed us to move one step further in the rational design of metallosupramolecular assemblies of increasing structural and magnetic complexity. Thus, we have taken advantage of the new developments of metallosupramolecular chemistry and, in particular, the molecular-programmed self-assembly methods that exploit the coordination preferences of paramagnetic metal ions and suitable designed polytopic ligands. The resulting self-assembled di- and trinuclear metallacyclic complexes with APOXA ligands, either metallacyclophanes or metallacryptands, are indeed ideal model systems for the study of the electron exchange mechanism between paramagnetic metal centers through extended π-conjugated aromatic bridges. So, the influence of different factors such as the topology and conformation of the bridging ligand or the electronic configuration and magnetic anisotropy of the metal ion have been investigated in a systematic way. These oligonuclear metallacyclic complexes can be important in the development of a new class of molecular magnetic devices, such as molecular magnetic wires (MMWs) and switches (MMSs), which are major goals in the field of molecular electronics and spintronics. On the other hand, because of their metal binding capacity through the outer carbonyl-oxygen atoms of the oxamato groups, they can further be used as ligands, referred to as metal–organic ligands (MOLs), toward either coordinatively unsaturated metal complexes or fully solvated metal ions. This well-known “complex-as-ligand” approach affords a wide variety of high-nuclearity metal–organic clusters (MOCs) and high-dimensionality metal–organic polymers (MOPs). The judicious choice of the oligonuclear MOL, ranging from mono- to di- and trinuclear species, has allowed us to control the overall structure and magnetic properties of the final oxamato-bridged multidimensional (nD, n = 0–3) MOCs and MOPs. The intercrossing between short- (nanoscopic) and long-range (macroscopic) magnetic behavior has been investigated in this unique family of oxamato-bridged metallosupramolecular magnetic materials expanding the examples of low-dimensional, single-molecule (SMMs) and single-chain (SCMs) magnets and high-dimensional, open-framework magnets (OFMs), which are brand-new targets in the field of molecular magnetism and materials science.     

Novel,Organically Doped,Sol–Gel-Derived Materials for Photonics: Multiphasic Nanostructured Composite Monoliths and Optical Fibers

Sol–gel-processed organic–inorganic hybrid materials combine the merits of inorganic glass and organic molecules, and are therefore a class of materials with good potential for photonics. In this review, two approaches which have shown promising results for producing useful materials for photonics are described: (i) a novel way to fabricate organically doped, multiphasic nanostructured composite monoliths and (ii) a method of fabrication of organically doped, sol–gel-derived optical fibers. For each approach, the preparation process is presented, together with selected applications such as multidye solid-state tunable laser, multiphasic optical power limiter, a micron-scale chemical-sensing and biosensing fibers and solid-state dye-doped fiber lasers. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.     

Organic photoresponse materials and devices

Organic photoresponse materials and devices are critically important to organic optoelectronics and energy crises. The activities of photoresponse in organic materials can be summarized in three effects, photoconductive, photovoltaic and optical memory effects. Correspondingly, devices based on the three effects can be divided into (i) photoconductive devices such as photodetectors, photoreceptors, photoswitches and phototransistors, (ii) photovoltaic devices such as organic solar cells, and (iii) optical data storage devices. It is expected that this systematic analysis of photoresponse materials and devices could be a guide for the better understanding of structure-property relationships of organic materials and provide key clues for the fabrication of high performance organic optoelectronic devices, the integration of them in circuits and the application of them in renewable green energy strategies (critical review, 452 references).
