Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are one of those compounds which have drawn attention in various applications due to their several interesting properties like tunable shape, size, pore size, easy functionalization, high surface area, pore volume, etc. Metal organic frameworks due to their uniform structures, tunable porosity, wide variety and stability on various topology, geometry, dimension and chemical functions of the molecular network give a remarkable structural diversity in comparison to other porous materials. This enables scientists to handle numerous framework structures, porosity and functionality effectively. The unique structural architecture and tunable properties of MOF’s makes them an interesting hybrid material consisting of organic and inorganic materials. MOF can be randomly constructed like Lego bricks and superior in terms of versatility in comparisson to other porous materials. A number of MOFs containing a wide variety of metal e.g. zinc, copper, iron, aluminium, magnesium, chromium, zirconium, gadolinium, manganese are gaining rapid growth in commercial markets for gas storage, adsorption, separation and catalytic applications. This concise review emphasizes various synthetic methods e.g. solvothermal process, hydrothermal synthesis, electrochemical synthesis, microwave synthesis, sonochemical synthesis, mechanochemical synthesis, of metal organic framework developed in the last few decades. It also addresses various applications of metal organic framework e.g. hydrogen storage, gas adsorption, drug delivery systems and bioimaging agents, biocatalysts, biosensors, electrochemical sensors, etc. It also comments on various challenges and futuristic applications of metal organic frameworks in various field e.g. liquid wate management, gaseous waste management, sunlight assisted catalysis, water purification, building materials, electronic devices, battery technologies, targeted drug delivery, solar cells, etc. of science and technology in coming decades.

The host-guest chemistry of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) has been attracting increasing attention owing to the outstanding properties derived from MOFs-guests combinations. However, there are large difficulties involved in the syntheses of the host-guest MOF systems with air-sensitive metal complexes. In addition, the behaviors on host-guest interactions in the above systems at high temperature are not clear. This study reported the synthetic methods for host-guest systems of metal–organic framework and air-sensitive metal complexes via a developed chemical vapor infiltration process. With the synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) measurements and Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), the successful loadings of Fe(CO)5 in HKUST-1 and NH2-MIL-101(Al) have been confirmed. At high temperatures, the structural and chemical componential changes were investigated in detail by XRPD and FTIR measurements. HKUST-1 was proven to have strong interaction with Fe(CO)5 and resulted in a heavy loading amount of 63.1 wt%, but too strong an interaction led to deformation of HKUST-1 sub-unit under heating conditions. NH2-MIL-101(Al), meanwhile, has a weaker interaction and is chemically inert to Fe(CO)5 at high temperatures.

We present a methodology for the rapid and readily scalable mechanosynthesis of diverse metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in the absence of milling media, typically required for other types of mechanochemical syntheses. We demonstrate the use of liquid-assisted resonant acoustic mixing (LA-RAM) methodology for the synthesis of two- and three-dimensional MOFs based on Zn, Co(II) and Cu(II), including single- and mixed-ligand systems, imidazolate or carboxylate ligands. The LA-RAM approach also allowed the synthesis of the ZIF-L, a framework never previously obtained in a solventless environment, as well as its Co(II) analogue. Straightforward scale-up from milligrams to at least 25 grams is demonstrated using ZIF-L as the model.<br>

In recent years, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)-derived composites have emanated as a significant class of substantial materials with specific functional characteristics such as flexibility, high porosity, and diverse composition. Specific chemical modifications can also endow MOFs with specific functionality by offering the possibility of manufacturing all new generation of sensing devices. As on comparison with pure MOFs, the mix up of MOFs with matrix materials(e.g., metal nanoparticles, quantum dots, molecular species, enzymes, silica, and polymers) or functional species not only exhibits enhanced properties, but also widens its applications to modern field of heterogeneous catalysis, gas separation, potential hydrogen storage material and many others due to its high adsorption nature and excellent reversibility kinetics as in result reveals its various undefined attributes, such as reproducible syntheses, amenability to scale-up and chemical modification due to interactions of the functional matrix or species with the MOFs structures.

Metal-organic frameworks represent a porous class of materials that are build up from metal ions or oligonuclear metallic complexes and organic ligands. They can be considered as sub-class of coordination polymers and can be extended into one-dimension, two-dimensions, and three-dimensions. Depending on the size of the pores, MOFs are divided into nanoporous, mesoporous, and macroporous items. The latter two are usually amorphous. MOFs display high porosity, a large specific surface area, and high thermal stability due to the presence of coordination bonds. The pores can incorporate neutral molecules, such as solvent molecules, anions, and cations, depending on the overall charge of the MOF, gas molecules, and biomolecules. The structural diversity of the framework and the multifunctionality of the pores render this class of materials as candidates for a plethora of environmental and biomedical applications and also as catalysts, sensors, piezo/ferroelectric, thermoelectric, and magnetic materials. In the present review, the synthetic methods reported in the literature for preparing MOFs and their derived materials, and their potential applications in environment, energy, and biomedicine are discussed.
