Abstract:Zirconium-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted extensive attention owing to their robust stability and facile functionalization. However, they are generally prepared in common volatile solvents within a long reaction time. Here, we introduced environmentally friendly, cheap, and acid-based tunable deep eutectic solvents (DESs) formed from 2-methyl imidazole (MIm) and p-toluenesulfonic acid (PTSA) which significantly accelerated the assembly of zirconium-based MOF (UiO-66) without any aggressive… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
