Over the past few decades, Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as a promising class of materials with diverse applications in various fields including catalysis, gas storage and separation, drug delivery, and sensing. Recently, sulfonic acid MOFs linkers have gained much attention due to their excellent stability and tunable acidity. Sulfonic acid MOFs linkers are obtained by incorporating a sulfonic acid functional group into the organic linker of MOFs. The synthesis of sulfonic acid MOFs linkers is achieved by using various synthetic strategies, such as solvothermal synthesis and microwave-assisted synthesis.
Sulfonic acid MOFs linkers have a wide range of potential applications due to their unique properties, including high catalytic activity, stability, and selectivity. One of the primary applications of sulfonic acid MOFs linkers is in catalysis. The strong Brønsted acidity of sulfonic acid groups on the MOF surface makes them ideal catalysts for a variety of chemical reactions, including esterification, aldol condensation, and Knoevenagel condensation. Sulfonic acid MOFs linkers can also be used as heterogeneous catalysts in organic solvent-free reactions, because they can be easily separated from the reaction mixture and reused.
Another application of sulfonic acid MOFs linkers is in gas storage. MOFs are porous materials with high surface areas, making them useful for the adsorption and storage of gases such as hydrogen, methane, and carbon dioxide. Sulfonic acid functionalization can enhance the stability and porosity of MOFs, making them suitable for gas storage applications. Sulfonic acid MOFs linkers have shown great promise in hydrogen storage as well as capture and separation of carbon dioxide from flue gases.
Sulfonic acid MOFs linkers can also be used in sensor applications. The high surface area and porosity of MOFs make them suitable for the detection of gases and volatile organic compounds. Functionalizing MOFs with sulfonic acid groups can enhance their sensitivity and selectivity, making them a promising material for gas sensor applications.
