Synthetic approaches for the incorporation of free amine functionalities in porous coordination polymers for enhanced CO_2 sorption

摘要

Porous coordination polymers, or metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), provide a unique materials platform due to their regular structure that allows for almost unlimited tunability in terms of pore size, shape, dimensionality and chemical functionalisation. The ability of this class of material to act as agents for the selective capture or separation of small molecules has driven much of the research in the field over the past two decades.
