Urotropine-based porous coordination polymers with free N-donors demonstrate selective adsorption towards acidic gas substrates (C2H2 or CO2) as confirmed by isotherm measurements and ab initio DFT calculations.

The PIXEL method can be applied to MOFs, yielding binding energies and optimised guest locations similar to more costly DFT calculations.

Mixed ligand metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have resolutely established themselves as a class of excellent solid state sorbents for carbon dioxide (CO2) and a proper design of such MOF can potentially improve not only the amount of CO2 adsorption, but also the selectivity of CO2 uptake over other gases and volatiles.

Although metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) or porous coordination polymers have been widely studied, their antimicrobial activities have not yet been fully investigated. In this work, antifungal activity of copper-based benzene-tricarboxylate MOF (Cu-BTC MOF), which is water stable and industrially interesting, is investigated against Candida albicans , Aspergillus niger , Aspergillus oryzae and Fusarium oxysporum . The Cu-BTC MOF can effectively inhibit the growth rate of C. albicans and remarkably inhibit the spore growth of A. niger , A. oryzae and F. oxysporum . This finding shows the potential of using Cu-BTC MOF as a strong biocidal material against representative yeasts and moulds that are commonly found in the food and agricultural industries.

We report a series of six isoreticular metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) for selective gas adsorption, specifically for selective adsorption of CO2 and C2H2.
