Overcoming Crystallinity Limitations of Aluminium Metal-Organic Frameworks by Oxalic Acid Modulated Synthesis

A modulated synthesis approach based on the chelating properties of oxalic acid (H2C2O4) is presented as a robust and versatile method to achieve highly crystalline Al-based metal-organic frameworks. A comparative study on this method and the already established modulation by hydrofluoric acid was conducted using MIL-53 as test system. The superior performance of oxalic acid modulation in terms of crystallinity and absence of undesired impurities is explained by assessing the coordination modes of the two modulators and the structural features of the product. The validity of our approach was confirmed for a diverse set of Al-MOFs, namely X-MIL-53 (X=OH, CH3O, Br, NO2), CAU-10, MIL-69, and Al(OH)ndc (ndc=1,4-naphtalenedicarboxylate), highlighting the potential benefits of extending the use of this modulator to other coordination materials.

Directed ortho-meta￠- And meta-meta￠-dimetalations: A template base approach to deprotonation -

The regioselectivity of deprotonation reactions between arene substrates and basic metalating agents is usually governed by the electronic and/or coordinative characteristics of a directing group attached to the benzene ring. Generally, the reaction takes place in the ortho position, adjacent to the substituent. Here, we introduce a protocol by which the metalating agent, a disodium-monomagnesium alkyl-amide, forms a template that extends regioselectivity to more distant arene sites. Depending on the nature of the directing group, ortho-meta? or meta-meta? dimetalation is observed, in the latter case breaking the dogma of ortho metalation. This concept is elaborated through the characterization of both organometallic intermediates and electrophilically quenched products.

Tuning the hydrogenation activity of Pd NPs on Al-MIL-53 by linker modification

The hydrogenation activity of 3 wt.% Pd nanoparticles supported on various mono-group (H, OCH3, NH2, Cl, and NO2) substituted Al-MIL-53 materials has been investigated. Substituents enhanced the dispersion of palladium nanoparticles on Al-MIL-53, leading to a narrow particle size distribution in the range of 2 to 4 nm. Pd nanoparticles on fresh catalysts were present as a mixture of Pd(ii) and Pd(0) with different ratios. These Pd species readily became metallic in a hydrogen flow even at room temperature. Their activities in hydrogenation of phenol and phenylacetylene are linked to the substituents on the aromatic ring of the framework. Catalysts with electron-donating groups (OCH3 and NH2) show much higher activity than those containing electron-withdrawing groups (Cl and NO2). This behavior might be explained by the hydrogen dissociation abilities of metallic Pd nanoparticles affected by the organic linkers.

Electronic effects of linker substitution on Lewis acid catalysis with metal-organic frameworks

Functionalized linkers can greatly increase the activity of metal-organic framework (MOF) catalysts with coordinatively unsaturated sites. A clear linear free-energy relationship (LFER) was found between Hammett m values of the linker substituents X and the rate kX of a carbonyl-ene reaction. This is the first LFER ever observed for MOF catalysts. A 56-fold increase in rate was found when the substituent is a nitro group (see picture). Copyright
