Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies on structural transformations of porous coordination polymers

Abstract: X-Ray single-crystal diffraction has been the most straightforward and important technique in structural determination of crystalline materials for understanding their structure-property relationships. This powerful tool can be used to directly visualize the precise and detailed structural information of porous coordination polymers or metal-organic frameworks at different states, which are unique for their flexible host frameworks compared with conventional adsorbents. With a series of selected recent example… Show more

“…All these processes can be monitored and evaluated by different in-situ diffraction studies. Recently, a brief overview of single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies and single-crystal to single-crystal transformations of porous coordination polymers under various chemical and physical stimuli such as solvent and gas adsorption/desorption/exchange, chemical reaction and temperature change was published by Zhang et al 102 It was found that a series of trivalent MIL-53(M 3+ ) (M = Fe, Al, Sc, Ga, etc.) analogues possess ability to change their crystal structures markedly in response to other guest-molecule adsorption.…”

“…Thus, it would be more predictable and controllable to transform central-metal nodes in a precursor MOF where the structural integrality is maintained. Thanks to the advantages of single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) for monitoring the structural transformations of MOFs, various metal ions that have been incorporated in specific positions throughout the MOFs can be visualized directly [42,43]. In this review, we provide an exhaustive investigation of the structure-property relationships of the corresponding MOFs, which indicates that single crystals are always conducive before and after the transformation.…”
