Organic–Inorganic Hybrid Materials: From “Simple” Coordination Polymers to Organodiamine-Templated Molybdenum Oxides

Abstract

A blueprint for the design of oxide materials is provided by nature. By borrowing from nature's ability to influence inorganic microstructures in biomineralization processes and in the hydrothermal synthesis of complex minerals, a new class of materials in which organic components exert a role in controlling inorganic microstructure is evolving. By employing members of the ever-expanding class of polymeric coordination complex cations, novel molybdenum oxide substructures, such as the one shown, may be prepared.

A perspective on the contribution of surfactants and lipids toward “Green Chemistry”: Present states and future potential

“…An example is the epoxidation of alkenes in which monoperoxy carbonic acid methyl ester can be generated under neutral conditions by lipase-catalyzed perhydrolysis of dimethyl carbonate with hydrogen peroxide (56). Also related to the organic-inorganic hybrid materials such as MCM-41 class, some organodiamine-templated molybdenum oxides have been studied recently (41). However, surfactant/lipid modified oxides have not been yet studied although these hybrid materials would be attractive on account of both their environmental and ecological compatibility.…”

“…The development of environmentally friendly, recyclable solid catalysts for the preparation of several fine chemicals is the subject of current interest. Many types of inorganic oxides occurring ubiquitously in the geosphere and biosphere have been found to be suitable for a great variety of industrial applications (41). The recently discovered family of mesoporous MCM-41 materials with extremely high surface area (42), potentially available in a wide range of pore dimensions, provides a unique inorganic support for the introduction of basic sites in a postsynthesis step and expands the possibilities of these solid catalysts.…”

Anorganische Materialien mit offenen Gerüsten

“…Einige Aspekte dieses Gebiets wurden kürzlich in einer Übersicht behandelt. [227] Zwei Ansätze wurden seit Beginn der neunziger Jahre entwickelt. Der erste beschäftigt sich mit der Modifizierung bereits vorher bekannter poröser Festkörper; dabei werden die Phosphatgruppen in der Struktur durch andere chelatisierende Agentien ersetzt, hauptsächlich durch organische Phosphonat-und Carboxylatogruppen.…”

A metal–organic framework containing meso-helical chains: Synthesis, characterization and luminescent property

“…In recent years, the area of inorganic-organic open framework materials has become one of the intense research activities [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] for their fascinating structural diversities and potential applications in catalysis, nonlinear optics and molecular sensing [8][9][10][11][12][13]. By closely controlling the properties of the ligands such as the shape [14,15], functionality [16,17], flexibility [18,19], conformation [20,21], and symmetry [22,23], frameworks with fantastic structures and desirable properties can be created.…”
