The solvothermal reaction of 2-nitro-[1,1′‐biphenyl]‐4,4′‐dicarboxylic acid (H2bpdcNO2) with Zn(NO3)2·6H2O in DMF solvent does not give a functionalised variant of IRMOF-9. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis shows the major initial product of this reaction, WUF-21 (WUF=Wollongong University Framework), is a porous interpenetrated diamondoid metal–organic framework (MOF) with a secondary building unit that ‘doubly straps’ eight bridging bpdcNO2 ligands in a distorted tetrahedral shape around an unusual pentazinc core. A second porous MOF phase (WUF-23) containing a large and novel dodecazinc secondary building unit forms in the same reaction and eventually predominates in solutions containing formate anion, which arises from the hydrolysis of DMF. Doping the starting ligand with [1,1′‐biphenyl]‐4,4′‐dicarboxylic acid (H2bpdc) provides a facile way to grow nitro-functionalised IRMOF-9, hereafter denoted as WUF-22, where the dopant is carried through into the product. Activated WUF-22 is a microporous solid with an apparent Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area of 2497m2g−1, which matches well with geometric surface area calculations. The CO2 adsorption properties of WUF-22 are reported.

A heterometallic metal−organic framework (MOF) of [Cd6Ca4(BTB)6(HCOO)2(DEF)2(H2O)12]∙DEF∙xSol (1, H3BTB = benzene-1,3,5-tribenzoic acid; DEF = N,N′-diethylformamide; xSol. = undefined solvates within the pore) was prepared by solvothermal reaction of Cd(NO3)2·4H2O, CaO and H3BTB in a mixed solvent of DEF/H2O/HNO3. The compatibility of these two divalent cations from different blocks of the periodic table results in a solid-state structure consisting of an unusual combination of a discrete V-shaped heptanuclear cluster of [Cd2Ca]2Ca′ and an infinite one-dimensional (1D) chain of [Cd2CaCa′]n that are orthogonally linked via a corner-shared Ca2+ ion (denoted as Ca′), giving rise to an unprecedented branched-chain secondary building unit (SBU). These SBUs propagate via tridentate BTB to yield a three-dimensional (3D) structure featuring a corner-truncated P41 helix in MOF 1. This outcome highlights the unique topologies possible via the combination of carefully chosen s- and d-block metal ions with polydentate ligands.

The metal-organic framework MIL-100(Fe) was synthesized by the green process using the ultrasonic method and water. By using this approach, the energy consumption was reduced by 100 times compared to the hydrothermal method. The prepared MIL-100(Fe) was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and BET surface area measurements. The XRD pattern showed characteristic peaks of MIL-100 (Fe) with the main peaks at 6.3o, 10.3o, 11.1o, and 20.1o. The prepared MIL-100(Fe) was of particle size in a range of from 100 nm to 200 nm, and surface area of 950 m2/g with a pore volume of 0.52 cm3/g. The obtained MIL-100 (Fe) showed a high loading capacity for the chloroquine drug with a maximal capacity of 555 mg/g.
