Growing polymers inside porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can allow incoming guests to access the backbone of otherwise non-porous polymers, boosting the number and/or strength of available adsorption sites inside the porous support. In the present work, we have devised a novel post-synthetic modification (PSM) strategy that allows one to graft metal-chelating functionality onto a polymer backbone while inside MOF pores, enhancing the material's ability to recover Pt(iv) from complex liquids. For this, polydopamine (PDA) was first grown inside of a MOF, known as Fe-BTC (or MIL-100 Fe). Next, a small thiol-containing molecule, 2,3-dimercapto-1-propanol (DIP), was grafted to the PDA a Michael addition. After the modification of the PDA, the Pt adsorption capacity and selectivity were greatly enhanced, particularly in the low concentration regime, due to the high affinity of the thiols towards Pt. Moreover, the modified composite was found to be highly selective for precious metals (Pt, Pd, and Au) over common base metals found in electronic waste (, Pb, Cu, Ni, and Zn). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) provided insight into the Pt adsorption/reduction process. Last, the PSM was extended to various thiols to demonstrate the versatility of the chemistry. It is hoped that this work will open pathways for the future design of novel adsorbents that are fine-tuned for the rapid, selective retrieval of high-value and/or critical metals from complex liquids.

This study presents the synthesis of a Cd(II) based hydrophobic three dimensional crystalline network material (CNM), [Cd(L)(LH)(bpe)], {L = {4,4'-(hexafluroisopropylidine)bis(benzoate)} and 1,2-di(4-pyridyl) ethylene (bpe)}, 1(Cd), by employing the slow-diffusion method. The three-dimensional structure of 1(Cd) was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), FT-IR spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Subsequently, post-synthetic modification of 1(Cd) with Cu(II) at room temperature led to the formation of isostructural 1(Cu) with partial substitution.

A pentafluoropropionic acid-functionalized fluorescent metal-organic framework material (UiO-66-NH-PFPA) is prepared by a simple post-synthetic modification (PSM) strategy for the sensitive and selective detection of dichloran (DCN). The results of fluorescence experiments demonstrate that the sensitivity of UiO-66-NH-PFPA (limit of detection, LOD = 0.478 μM) to DCN is nearly 10.

Due to the diverse chemical and physical properties of functional groups, mild and controllable ligation methods are often required to construct complex drugs and functional materials. To make diverse sets of products with tunable physicochemical properties, it is also useful to employ complimentary ligation methods that adopt the same starting materials. Here, we disclose the efficient and modular synthesis of amides or thioamides through the chemical ligation of acyl silanes with amines, simply by turning a light on or off.

One method of achieving spatially specific, multi-component nanoheterostructures is to combine multiple forms of post-synthetic modification. Applying cation or anion exchange to CuS nanorods creates complex nanoheterostructures. Combining such anion and cation exchanges generates a system which uncovers the interplay between these two processes and understands the cooperativity between postsynthetic modifications more broadly.
