Emerging Trends in Coordination Polymers and Metal-Organic Frameworks: Perspectives, Synthesis, Properties and Applications
Journal Title: Archives of Organic and Inorganic Chemical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Coordination polymers including metal-organic frameworks, clathrates and cyanometallates have recently gained significance as an important class of solid state materials. In this critical review, the diversity, classification, synthesis, structure, properties, applications, geometrical and chemical factors that influence their formation have been carefully presented. The synthesis of these new classes of compounds from molecular building blocks and demonstration oftheir high surface area, adsorptive and trapping potentials of molecules, selectivity in separation and uptake of molecules, tunable and modifiable molecular structure, and photoluminescence, magnetic and antimicrobial responses holds the potential for innumerable applications based on these tailored properties.The development of polymer materials with coordination complexes as repeating units has increased in recent years .In the past decade, there have been rapid growth in coordination polymers and this defines one of the most exciting fields in solid state chemistry. The surprising variety of structures, compositions and properties of these polymers as well as their easy modification and synthesis has attracted many researchers [1]. As a consequence of the various synthetic procedures followed with modifications of the structures of these polymers.
