Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of porous materials with high surface areas, tunable pore sizes, and diverse functionalities. MOFs have attracted extensive attention from researchers in various fields, including gas storage, separation, catalysis, and sensing due to their unique properties. Among the different types of MOF linkers, halogen MOF linkers have been attracting a lot of attention due to their unique properties. Halogen atoms such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine can be incorporated into MOF linkers to create halogen MOF linkers. These halogen MOF linkers offer unique electronic, optical, and chemical properties that can be harnessed for various applications. The incorporation of halogen atoms into MOF linkers introduces polarizability, electronegativity, and Lewis acidity into the MOF structure, leading to unique properties such as high surface area, charge transfer ability, and catalytic activity. The synthesis of halogen MOF linkers can be achieved through various methods such as covalent post-synthetic modification, direct synthesis, and ligand exchange methods. The resulting Halogen MOF linkers show distinct physical and chemical properties that can be harnessed for a wide range of applications.
Gas Adsorption and Separation: Halogen MOF linkers can be utilized for gas adsorption and separation applications due to their high surface area and unique chemical properties. For example, a study demonstrated the use of iodine-containing MOFs for the selective adsorption of iodine gas. Additionally, halogen MOF linkers have also been used for the adsorption and separation of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2).
Catalysis: Halogen MOF linkers offer unique catalytic properties that can be utilized for various chemical reactions. For example, halogen MOF linkers containing iodine have been used as catalysts for CO oxidation.
