Summary: This study synthesized and compared the performance of 2D imine COFs as catalysts, finding that Pd@TTA-DFB COF exhibited fast reactivity but low stability, Pd@TTA-DFP COF had the highest stability but slowest reactivity, and Pd@TTA-TBD COF showed the best overall performance. Experimental and computational results indicated that the reduction from Pd(II) to Pd(0) is a key step in determining the catalytic activity of COFs.

Summary: During drug release, the drug is transferred through the drug delivery system to the surface and then to the release medium. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have unique features, such as suitable pore size, high surface area, and structural flexibility, making them promising carriers for drug delivery. The loading and release of therapeutic drugs through MOFs are achieved effectively due to the tunable inorganic clusters and organic ligands. A quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) method utilizing structure-based descriptors and a best multilinear regression (BMLR) model accurately predicts the drug release rate from MOFs. The model demonstrates high accuracy and precision through validation with external observations.
