Soft mode metal-linker dynamics in carboxylate MOFs evidenced by variable-temperature infrared spectroscopy

Through comprehensive analysis of carboxylate-based metal–organic frameworks (MOFs),
we present general evidence that challenges the common perception of MOF metal-linker
bonds being static. Structural dynamics in MOFs, however, typically refers to the “breathing”
behavior of cavities, where pores open and close in response to guest molecules, and to the
transient binding of guest molecules, but dynamic bonding would explain important MOF
phenomena in catalysis, postsynthetic exchange, negative thermal expansion, and crystal …

Soft Mode Metal-Linker Dynamics in Carboxylate MOFs

A Andreeva, L Chen, KN Le, ME Kellman, CH Hendon… - 2020 - chemrxiv.org
Through comprehensive analysis of carboxylate-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs),
we present general evidence for dynamic metal-linker bonding that challenges the common
perception of MOF structures being static. Structural dynamics in MOFs, however, typically
refers to the “breathing” behavior of pore cavities and the transient binding of guest
molecules, but dynamic bonding would explain important MOF phenomena in catalysis, post-
synthetic exchange, negative thermal expansion, and crystal growth. Here, we demonstrate …
