Recent progress in the design and synthesis of zeolite-like metal–organic frameworks (ZMOFs)
Abstract
This article highlights recent examples of the design and synthesis of zeolite-like metal–organic frameworks (ZMOFs). ZMOFs are a subset of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) that exhibit the same topologies as traditional inorganic zeolites. These frameworks have attracted research interest because of their unique pore systems and distinctive cage-based cavities. With the adoption of a molecular building block (MBB) strategy, many ZMOFs with high stability and performance can be rationally designed and synthesized using various secondary building units (SBUs).
