ZIF-8 degrades in cell media,serum, and some—but not all—common laboratory buffers

ABSTRACT

Drug delivery using metal-organic frameworks (MOF) has elicited interest in their biocompatibility; however, few studies have been conducted on their stability in common buffers, cell media, and blood proteins. In particular, the use of ZIF-8, a MOF interconnected by Zn and methylimidazole, has been frequently employed. In this study, we tested single crystals of ZIF-8 with common laboratory buffers, cell media, and serum, and noted several issues. Buffers containing phosphate and bicarbonate alter the appearance and composition of ZIF-8; however, these buffers do not appear to cause cargo to leak out even when the ZIF-8 itself is displaced by phosphates. On the other hand, serum dissolves ZIF-8, causing premature cargo release. Our results show that ZIF-8 undergoes surface chemistry changes that may affect the interpretation of cellular uptake and cargo release data. On the other hand, it provides a rational explanation as to how ZIF-8 neatly dissolves in vivo.     

Crystal Structures of 1,5,9,18,22,26-Hexaaza[11.11]-p-cyclophane Adducts; Two-dimensional Supramolecular Networks

Two newly identified supramolecular structures arise from self-assembly of the macrocyclic 1,5,9,18,22,26- hexaaza[11.11]-p-cyclophane salts with o-nitrophenol (C₂₈H₅₀N₆)⁴⁺·4(C₆H₄NO₂O)⁻ (1) and with HCl (C₂₈H₅₂N₆)⁶⁺·6Cl^-·4H₂O (2). In both cases two-dimensional supramolecular sheets are formed.

Gas Hydrate Frameworks of Allen's Polyhedra. 2. Frameworks on 3–6 and 3–5–6 Nets

The structure of two classes of water molecule frameworks built up of 5¹²(D), 5¹²6²(T), 5¹²6³(P), and 5¹²6⁴(H) polyhedra is discussed. Polyhedral layers can be distinguished in the frameworks. The centers of the polyhedra belonging to a layer are at the nodes of planar networks consisting of triangular, pentagonal, and hexagonal meshes. The structure of one network determines exclusively the topology of the entire framework. Frameworks on 3–6 nets can be constructed of two types of polyhedral blocks: D₃T₂P₂and D₂T₆. Frameworks on 3–5–6 nets might include both specific blocks and the blocks involved in the frameworks on 3–5 and 3–6 nets. The paper analyzes the structure of frameworks on the nets built as a series of rows, each of these rows being constructed of pentagons or hexagons exclusively. These frameworks are described by the formula (D₃T₂P₂) _x (D₄H₂) _y (D₂T₆) _z , where x 1, y 0, and z 0 (x, y, and z are integers). Since all known frameworks of Allen's polyhedra satisfy this formula, they can be constructed of fragments of gas hydrate lattices with the CS1, CS2, and HS1 structures because they are derivatives of these key structures. Similar frameworks can be constructed of other tetrahedral particles (C, Si, SiO₂, etc.).     

Strategies for hydrogen storage in metal--organic frameworks

Increased attention is being focused on metal-organic frameworks as candidates for hydrogen storage materials. This is a result of their many favorable attributes, such as high porosity, reproducible and facile syntheses, amenability to scale-up, and chemical modification for targeting desired properties. A discussion of several strategies aimed at improving hydrogen uptake in these materials is presented. These strategies include the optimization of pore size and adsorption energy by linker modification, impregnation, catenation, and the inclusion of open metal sites and lighter metals.     

Catalytic palladium nanoparticles supported on nanoscale MOFs: a highly active catalyst for Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction

Pd nanoparticles have been successfully supported on nanoscale metal-organic frameworks (NMOFs) by using a simple and effective microwave-assisted impregnation process. The resulting composite, representing as a highly active NMOFs supported metal nanoparticles catalyst for the Suzuki cross-coupling reaction between aryl/heteroaryl halides and arylboronic acids, is well characterized, and its high activity and good recyclability are discussed in details. It reveals that, compared to the corresponding bulk MOFs and conventional active carbon materials, nanoscale MOFs as novel support materials for heterogeneous catalysts can exhibit superior performance in the catalytic reactions.     

An Ultrastable Crystalline Acylhydrazone-Linked Covalent Organic Framework for Efficient Removal of Organic Micropollutants from Water

As an important member of crystalline porous polymers, acylhydrazone-linked covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have gained much attention in recent years. However, the low structural stability imparts a limit on their practical applications. To tackle this problem, we report a simple strategy to increase the chemical stability of acylhydrazone-linked COFs by incorporating azobenzene groups in the conjugated framework. Through reinforcing the π-π stacking interactions between the adjacent layers with increased π-surface, it is surprising to find that the resulting materials exhibit extreme stability in harsh environments, such as in strong acid, strong base, aqueous educing agent and boiling water, even exposed to air for one year. As a proof-of-concept, such frameworks have been used to remove various organic micropollutants such as antibiotics, plastic components, endocrine disruptors, and carcinogens from water with high capacity, fast speed and excellent reusability over a wide pH range at environmentally relevant concentrations. The results provide a new avenue to significantly enhance the stability of COFs for practical applications.
