Emerging porous solids and sonochemistry

Abstract

Sonochemistry is a specialized field dedicated to investigating ultrasound-promoted (US-promoted) chemical reactions and exploring new applications of US radiation. In recent years, US has been used as a valuable and practical tool combined with emerging porous solids, including metal–organic frameworks, crystalline covalent organic frameworks, and amorphous porous organic polymers, which belong to a family of new functional materials. This review highlights the sonosynthesis of porous solids and explores their use in sonochemical applications, including sonocatalysis and sonodynamic therapy. Moreover, this review presents the first comprehensive introduction to the use of sonochemistry in porous organic material applications.
