The three-dimensional metal-organic framework poly[bis(dimethylammonium) [hexa-mu(2)-formato-kappa(12)O:O'-aluminium(III)sodium(I)]], {(C(6)H(8)N)(2)[AlNa(HCOO)(6)]}(n), was obtained serendipitously and has been characterized by X-ray diffraction. The product has arisen as a result of a hydrolysis reaction of dimethylformamide (DMF) and contains dimethylammonium (DMA) cations included in structural voids formed by a three-dimensional [AlNa(HCOO)(6)](-) network. This study provides evidence that, in the presence of traces of aluminium, DMF stored in a glass bottle can be hydrolysed to formate and dimethylamine with simultaneous extraction of Na(+) cations from the glass. It also demonstrates that care must be taken regarding the metal and water content when DMF is not freshly distilled, since the hydrolysis of amide can occur.

During the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), metal-organic framework (MOF) catalysts undergo structural reorganization, a phenomenon that is still not fully comprehended. Additionally, designing MOFs that undergo structural reconstruction to produce highly active OER catalysts continues to pose significant challenges. Herein, a bimetallic MOF (CoNi-MOF) with carboxylate oxygen and pyridine nitrogen coordination has been synthesized and its reconstruction behavior has been analyzed.

Specific tumor-targeted gene delivery remains an unsolved therapeutic issue due to aberrant vascularization in tumor microenvironment (TME). Some bacteria exhibit spontaneous chemotaxis toward the anaerobic and immune-suppressive TME, which makes them ideal natural vehicles for cancer gene therapy. Here, we conjugated ZIF-8 metal-organic frameworks encapsulating eukaryotic murine interleukin 2 () expression plasmid onto the surface of VNP20009, an attenuated strain with well-documented anti-cancer activity, and constructed a TME-targeted delivery system named /ZIF-8@.

We report herein the synthesis and full spectroscopic characterization of two AB-corrole phosphonic acids. Thanks to the presence of a phosphonic acid functional group at the 10--position, the corroles were covalently linked to the hexanuclear Zr clusters of a PCN-222 metal-organic framework (MOF). After the insertion of cobalt into the corrole macrocycle, the metal complexes are able to bind small volatile molecules such as carbon monoxide (CO).

The physical separation of CH from CO on metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has received a substantial amount of research interest due to its advantages of simplicity, security, and energy efficiency. However, the exploitation of ideal MOF adsorbents for CH/CO separation remains a challenging task due to their similar physical properties and molecular sizes. Herein, we report a unique CH nano-trap constructed using accessible oxygen and nitrogen sites, which exhibits energetic favorability toward CH molecules.

Metal tellurides, known for their superior electrical conductivity and excellent electrochemical properties, are promising candidates for supercapacitor applications. This study introduces a novel method involving a metal-organic framework hybrid to synthesize CoTe@CoFeTe double-shelled nanocubes. Initially, zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF67) and CoFe Prussian blue analog (PBA) nanocubes are synthesized through an anion-exchange reaction with [Fe(CN)] ions.
