Metal open frameworks

To demonstrate the utilities of salt inclusion, we review the selected zeoUte-like transition-metal-containing open frameworks (TMCOFs) and then describe the structures of non-centrosymmetric solids (NCSs) and, finally, report crystalline solids containing a periodic array of transition metal nanostructures. In particular, we will address the issues concerning the role that molten salt has in... 

Over the last few years, we have made a number of novel discoveries using reactive salt fluxes in the crystal growth experiment of mixed-metal oxides. The most important outcome that these salt-inclusion solids have demonstrated is the propensity for structure- directing effects of the employed salt. These hybrid solids have revealed fascinating solid-state structures ranging from nanoclusters to three-dimensional open frameworks of current interest. Solids featuring mag-...

A number of transition metal oxides can also be intercalated by lithium. One of the best known examples is VsOi3. The VgOu structure, shown in Fig. 11.19, consists of alternate double and single layers of V2OS ribbons. The layers are connected by vertex sharing of octahedral sites, and this leads to a relatively open framework structure (Wilhelmi, Waltersson and Kihlburg, 1971). Insertion of lithium into the oxide matrix... 

The concept zeolites conventionally served as the synonym for aluminosilicates with microporous host lattice structures. Upon removal of the guest water, zeolites demonstrate adsorptive property at the molecular level as a result they are also referred to as molecular sieves. Crystalline zeosils, AlPO s, SAPO s, MAPO s (M=metal), expanded clay minerals and Werner compounds are also able to adsorb molecules vitally on reproval of any of the guest species they occlude and play an Important role in fields such as separation and catalysis (ref. 1). Inclusion compounds are another kind of crystalline materials with open framework structures. The guest molecules in an inclusion compound are believed to be indispensable to sustaining the framework structure their removal from the host lattice usually results in collapse of the host into a more compact crystal structure or even into an amorphous structure.

Many of the same ionic surfactants used for the assembly of mesostructured molecular sieve catalysts [1-4] and related bulk phases [5] can be intercalated in a variety of layered host structures [6]. We have recently demonstrated that some of these mesostructure - forming surfactants retain their structure directing properties when intercalated in the galleries of smectite clays. In a manner quite analogous to bulk mesostructure formation, the intercalated surfactants direct the assembly of an open framework metal oxide (silica) structure within the constrained gallery regions of the layered host (7). The resulting porous intercalates are referred to as porous clay heterostructures (PCH). 

Amino-carboxylic and phosphonic acids are known to form open frameworks (i.e. porous materials), particularly with first-row transition metal ions. Lanthanide diphosphonates with 3D pillared-layer structure are also known and several classes of ligands such as sim-...

Breck has reviewed the early literature where Ga3+, P5+, and Ge4 were potentially incorporated into a few zeolite structures via a primary synthesis route (2). Evidence has also been presented to show that the small amounts of Fe3+, typically present in both natural and synthetic zeolites, are located in framework tetrahedral positions (3). A more recent review of "isomorphic substitution" in zeolites, via primary synthesis methods, speculates on the potential Impact of such substitutions on catalysis (4). The vast majority of work has been related to the high silica zeolites, particularly of the ZSM-5 type. Another approach to substitution of metal atoms into the open frameworks of zeolite structures has been to replace the typical silica alumina gel with gels containing other metal atoms. This concept has resulted in numerous unique molecular sieve compositions containing aluminum and phosphorus 5 silicon, aluminum and phosphorus (6) and with...

Several classes of inorganic open-framework structures have been synthesized and characterized in the past several years. While zeolitic aluminosilicates constitute the best-known class of open-framework structures,4 metal phosphates have been gaining considerable importance, and a variety of metal phosphates with open architectures have been reported in the past decade.5 The open-framework phosphates are generally synthesized under hydrothermal conditions in the presence of organic...
