Solid-state NMR: A powerful tool for characterization of metal-organic frameworks

摘要

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a new type of porous materials with numerous current and potential applications in many areas including ion-exchange, catalysis, sensing, separation, molecular recognition, drug delivery and, in particular, gas storage. Solid-state NMR (SSNMR) has played a pivotal role in structural characterization and understanding of host-guest interactions in MOFs. This article provides an overview on application of SSNMR to MOF systems.
