Visible-light-mediated guest trapping in a photosensitizing porous coordination network: metal-free C-C bond-forming modification of metal-organic frameworks for aqueous-phase herbicide adsorption.

Visible-light-mediated guest trapping in a photosensitizing porous coordination network: metal-free C-C bond-forming modification of metal-organic frameworks for aqueous-phase herbicide adsorption. Chem Commun (Camb). 2019 Apr 17;: Authors: Yang Y, Che J, Wang B, Wu Y, Chen B, Gao L, Dong X, Zhao J Abstract A series of furan/thiophene-derived Cr-MIL-101s were obtained via visible-light-mediated C-C bond-forming catalysis within photosensitizing porous materials. The guest trapping process was achieved under very mild and metal-free conditions, affording newly functionalized MOFs with more π-π stacking, hydrogen bonding properties and excellent adsorption capacity in removing herbicides from aquatic environments.
