MacGillivray L.R., Lukehart C.M. (Eds.) Metal-Organic Framework Materials

John Wiley & Sons Ltd, West Sussex, UK, 2014. – 589 p. – ISBN: 1119952891.Metal–Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are crystalline compoundsconsisting of rigid organic molecules held together and organizedby metal ions or clusters. Special interests in these materialsarise from the fact that many are highly porous and can be used forstorage of small molecules, for example H2 or CO2 . Consequently, the materials are ideal candidatesfor a wide range of applications including gas storage, separationtechnologies and catalysis. Potential applications includethe storage of hydrogen for fuel–cell cars, and the removal andstorage of carbon dioxide in sustainable technical processes. MOFsoffer the inorganic chemist and materials scientist a wide range ofnew synthetic possibilities and open the doors to new and excitingbasic research. Metal–Organic Frameworks Materials provides a solid basisfor the understanding of MOFs and insights into new inorganicmaterials structures and properties. The volume also reflectsprogress that has been made in recent years, presenting a widerange of new applications including state–of–the art developmentsin the promising technology for alternative fuels. Thecomprehensive volume investigates structures, symmetry,supramolecular chemistry, surface engineering, recognition,properties, and reactions.Design and Synthesis
