As molecular synthesis advances, we are beginning to learn control of not only the chemical reactivity (and function) of molecules, but also of their interactions with other molecules. It is this basic idea that has led to the current explosion of supramolecular science and engineering. Parallel to this development, chemists have been actively pursuing the design of very large molecules using basic molecular building blocks. Herein, we review the general development of supramolecular chemistry and particularly of two new branches: supramolecular coordination complexes (SCCs) and metal organic frameworks (MOFs). These two fields are discussed in detail with typical examples to illustrate what is now possible and what challenges lie ahead for tomorrow's molecular artisans.

<div> <div> <div> <p>In nanoporous materials, guest–host interactions affect the properties and function of both adsorbent and adsorbate molecules. Due to their structural and chemical diversity, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a common class of nanoporous materials, have been shown to be able to efficiently and, often, selectively adsorb various types of guest molecules. In this study, we characterize the structure and dynamics of water confined in ZIF-90. Through the integration of experimental and computational infrared (IR) spectroscopy, we probe the structure of heavy water (D<sub>2</sub>O) adsorbed in the pores, disentangling the fundamental framework–water and water–water interactions. The experimental IR spectrum of D<sub>2</sub>O in ZIF-90 displays a blue-shifted OD-stretch band compared to liquid D<sub>2</sub>O. The analysis of the IR spectra simulated at both classical and quantum levels indicates that the D<sub>2</sub>O molecules preferentially interact with the carbonyl groups of the framework and highlights the importance of including nuclear quantum effects and taking into account Fermi resonances for a correct interpretation of the OD-stretch band in terms of the underlying hydrogen-bonding motifs. Through a systematic comparison with the experimental spectra, we demonstrate that computational spectroscopy can be used to gain quantitative, molecular-level insights into framework–water interactions that determine the water adsorption capacity of MOFs as well as the spatial arrangements of the water molecules inside the MOF pores which, in turn, are key to the design of MOF-based materials for water harvesting.</p> </div> </div> </div>

The accumulation of pollutants in water is dangerous for the environment and human lives. Some of them are considered as persistent organic pollutants (POPs) that cannot be eliminated from wastewater effluent. Thus, many researchers have devoted their efforts to improving the existing technology or providing an alternative strategy to solve this environmental problem. One of the attractive materials for this purpose are metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) due to their superior high surface area, high porosity, and the tunable features of their structures and function. This review provides an up-to-date and comprehensive description of MOFs and their crucial role as adsorbent, catalyst, and membrane in wastewater treatment. This study also highlighted several strategies to improve their capability to remove pollutants from water effluent.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of hybrid network supramolecular solid materials comprised of organized organic linkers and metal cations. They can display enormously high surface areas with tunable pore size and functionality, and can be used as hosts for a range of guest molecules. Since their discovery, MOFs have experienced widespread exploration for their applications in gas storage, drug delivery and sensing. This article covers general and modern synthetic strategies to prepare MOFs, and discusses their structural diversity and properties with respect to application perspectives.
