Metal−organic frameworks (MOFs), which are porous materials that are prepared from metal ion/clusters and multidentate organic ligands, have evolved to be next generation utility materials because of their usability in diverse applications. MOFs, as a class of interesting materials, have attracted great attention due to their controllable pore size and elaborately designed pore structure. In the past two decades, MOFs have exhibited versatile potential applications such as gas storage, gas separation, heterocatalysis, sensors, and luminescence. Most research works so far have focused on MOFs based on transition metal ions or rare-earth ions. In this review, a porous Ba (II)based MOF was synthesized with an ultrasonic method by using benzene-1,2,4,5-tetracaboxylic acid as an organic linker; this was characterized by X-Ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy methods.
