Summary: A mixed-valence oxotrimer metal-organic framework (MOF), Ni-MIL-127, undergoes thermal treatment to generate a defect that enhances its catalytic activity for propylene oligomerization. The catalyst shows unprecedented stability for this chemistry and a majority of the Ni species in the MOF framework are involved in the catalytic reaction. In situ NO titrations and density functional theory calculations support the plausibility of the defect and mechanism. This study highlights the potential of MOF precatalysts in improving catalytic activity.

Summary: A mixed-valence oxotrimer metal-organic framework (MOF), Ni-MIL-127, with a missing linker defect on the nickel atom catalyzes propylene oligomerization without any cocatalysts or initiators. The catalyst is stable for over 20 hours at 500 kPa and 473 K. The majority of Ni species in the MOF framework catalyze propylene oligomerization, as validated by various analytical techniques.

Summary: An efficient MIL-100(Fe)-supported palladium (Pd) catalyst was successfully synthesized via a solution impregnation method without stabilizing and reducing agents, and applied in selective hydrogenation of NBR. The well-dispersed and small-sized Pd nanoparticles and the high external surface area of MIL-100(Fe) led to the highly catalytic activity of Pd(II)/MIL-100(Fe) composite towards NBR at room temperature.

Summary: The mesoporous iron polycarboxylate MIL-100(Fe) was synthesized with the presence of Pseudomonas putida bacteria. The synthesis was done under green conditions, using pure aqueous media at 30 degrees C to ensure the integrity of the cell membrane. The resulting biohybrid showed a unique microstructure, with an exoskeleton encapsulating individual bacteria cell, suggesting strong interactions between the exopolysaccharides network and MOF precursors.

Summary: In this study, a new class of porous materials, MIL-100(Cr), was synthesized using a solvent-free methodology for the removal of pharmaceutical contaminants from aqueous sources. The characterization results showed that MIL-100(Cr) has a non-uniform structure with different sizes, low crystallinity, and thermal stability up to 300 degrees C. It has a negatively charged surface and two types of cavities with sizes of 1.10 nm and 1.49 nm. Adsorption experiments demonstrated different adsorption capacities for different pharmaceutical compounds, which can be attributed to various interactions, such as pi-pi and electrostatic interactions, and hydrogen bonds, between the compounds and MIL-100(Cr).

Summary: This study investigated the effectiveness of using Fe-based MOF or MIL-100(Fe) in conjunction with a PEDOT-modified Pt electrode for detecting the synthetic azo dye tartrazine. By modifying the electrode with two different methods, favorable lower reductive potentials, competitive sensitivities, and good repeatability and stability were achieved in all MIL-100(Fe)/PEDOT/Pt electrodes.

Summary: In this study, a biocompatible metal-organic framework MIL-100(Fe) was used to produce composite films based on ?-carrageenan and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose loaded with the active compounds of tea tree essential oil, and ensured the uniform distribution of the filler particles. The composite films showed excellent UV-blocking properties, good water vapor permeability, and moderate antibacterial activity against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. The use of metal-organic frameworks as containers of hydrophobic molecules of natural active compounds makes the composites made from naturally occurring hydrocolloids attractive materials for active packaging of food products.

Summary: The study investigated the effects of phase transition from crystalline to amorphous on the dielectric, optical, and electrical properties of metal-organic frameworks, as well as the variations in different frequency ranges. It was found that parameters such as pressure, temperature, frequency, density, and degree of amorphization greatly influence the dielectric properties.

Summary: ZIF/CN and Ni-contained ZIF/CN composite catalysts were synthesized successfully through a two-step strategy. The physicochemical properties characterization revealed that the composite catalysts had a higher surface area compared to the as-prepared CN. Ni-ZIF/CN catalyst showed beneficial effects on light absorption, carrier generation, transfer, and separation. Both ZIF/CN and Ni-ZIF/CN exhibited high decolorization rates above 99% and a reaction rate constant twice that of CN when tested for methyl orange degradation. It can be concluded that ZIF-modified carbon nitride photocatalysts possess excellent photoelectrochemical properties and photocatalytic activity, providing a new pathway for enhancing photocatalytic properties through modifying material band structures.
