Owing to the extensive interest in construction of functional metal organic frameworks (FMOFs), this book discusses the roles of functional groups on the structure and application of metal organic frameworks (MOFs). The contents of the book are classified based on the structural and chemical properties of organic functions, in order to make readers able to compare the different effects of each function on the structure and application of the MOFs. In each chapter, the chemical properties of applied functional groups are gathered to give deeper insight into the roles of organic functions in the structure and application of MOFs. In the function-application properties, the authors discuss how a functional group can dominate the host-guest chemistry of the MOFs and how this host-guest chemistry can expand the effectiveness and efficiency of the material in different fields of applications. Finally, function-structure properties are discussed. In function-application properties, it is discussed how a functional group can affect the topology, porosity, flexibility and stability of the framework. The features of this subject are novel and are presented for the first time.

As a subclass of coordination polymers and porous materials, metal– organic frameworks (MOFs) are composed of a dual organic–inorganic structure based on organic (organic linkers) and inorganic (metal ions/clusters) building blocks. In structural view, a unique kind of connection between organic linkers and inorganic nodes leads to construction of a three-dimensional framework with vacant spaces between building blocks. Owing to unlimited possibility in selection of organic ligands and metal ions/clusters, theoretically it is feasible to synthesis an unlimited number of frameworks.
In recent decades, MOFs received lots of attention in the world of material science and chemistry. Such tremendous attention is owing to their unique chemical characters such as hybrid organic–inorganic nature, high porosity and surface area, tunability in chemical functionality, highly ordered and crystalline structure and moderate-to-high chemical and thermal stabilities. Each one of these chemical properties enable MOFs to apply for specific purpose, but the ability to functionalize MOFs is a specific character to improve the capability of MOFs in different field of applications.
There are three ways for functionalization of MOFs including: (I) using functional organic linker, (II) pore functionalization through immobilization of other functional materials and (III) functionalization of inorganic nodes of the framework. Owing to versatile kind of organic functional groups, linker functionalization is recognized as a favorite strategy to tailor the chemical properties and enrich the host-guest chemistry of functional metal–organic frameworks (FMOFs).
In this book, we tried to review the literature to gain deep insight about the effects of linker functionalization on structure and host-guest chemistry of FMOFs. The content of this book is useful for gaining better understanding of the structural and chemical properties of FMOFs. Considering our strategy in this book, we believe that this book is interesting for diverse group of scientists like chemists, material engineers and anyone who is working on supramolecular chemistry of MOFs and designing functional materials.

Abstract
In this chapter, we discuss about the advantages of porous materials and crystalline materials and explain that what kinds of benefits are attainable if these advantages combine together in the structure of functional materials like metal-organic frameworks. Then, functional metal-organic frameworks are discussed and classified based on the roles of organic functions in the structure and application of MOFs.
Keywords: Porous materials, crystalline materials, functional metal-organic frameworks, coordination polymers, host-guest chemistry, function-application properties, function-structure properties
Solid materials are generally classified in amorphous and crystalline (single-crystalline or poly-crystalline) solids in chemistry and material science. Crystalline solids are constructed based on periodic symmetrical arrays of constituents giving rise to definite, regular and repeating pattern of the solid in three dimensions over a large distance. Such long-range structural order rises in the beneficial fact that crystalline solids represent specific and repeatable chemical properties. This is a very pivotal advantage which is not observed in amorphous solids. For example, crystalline solids are of sharp melting point and definite heat of fusion while amorphous solids have not a characteristic heat of adsorption and sharp melting point. As a result, crystalline solids benefit from repeatable structure and chemical properties which are fitting characters in application of novel materials.
Another classification of materials is based on their porosity. Porosity, which also is called void fraction, is defined as the ratio of vacant space (void) in material to the total volume that the materials occupy. This fraction is always between 0 and 1. Porous materials encompass vacant spaces in their structure based on accessible pore volume (vacant cavities or channels) for guest molecules. This is a unique advantage of porous material in which not only can they interact with guest molecules on their surface, but also they can adsorb and interact with guests within their pores inside the bulk material. The characteristics of a porous material define by their surface area (m2·g−1), accessible pore volume (m3·g−1), shape, size and distribution of pores. Based on pore size, porous materials are classified in three major groups including microporous (in the range of 2 nm and below), mesoporous (in the range of 2 to 50 nm) and macroporous (above 50 nm) [1]. Another way to classify porous materials is pursuant to uniformity in the pore size, volume and distribution [2]. In this approach, porous materials are classified as ordered (uniform) and non-ordered groups. Uniform porous materials are developed based on same pore size, shape and distribution. To observe such uniformity in porosity, a porous material must be founded on uniform and repeatable structural patterns. This uniformity in the structure and porosity is essential for some of superior applications like size selective separation of a small molecule from a mixture containing large molecules. In size selective applications, guest molecules with smaller size (or kinetic diameter) than pore aperture of the host are able to diffuse into the pores of ordered porous material while molecules with larger size cannot. Definitely, porous materials without uniformity in their pore size and distribution could not be applied in size-selective applications because they cannot differentiate guest molecules with different sizes. These contents indicate that crystalline porous solids with regular and repeatable structure and porosity are very efficacious in molecular-sieving and also other kinds of applications.
Crystalline porous solids can be extended by different types of interactions (ionic and hydrogen bonds, covalent interactions and coordination interactions) between their individual molecular building blocks [3]. Especially, crystalline porous materials which are developed by coordination interactions are coordination polymers (CPs). In structural view, CPs could be extended in different dimensions, so they could be 1-dimensional (1D), 2D or 3D. Also, they are synthesized based on linkers and metal ion/clusters when a polydentate linker is able to associate multiple metal centers through coordination bonds in self-assembly process (Figure 1.1) [4]. As a subclass of CPs, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous, three-dimensional and developed based on polydentate organic ligands and metal ion/clusters (Figure 1.2). Although these terms, MOFs and CPs, are widely applied interchangeably in the literature, there are some similarities and differences between both terms.
Figure 1.1 Representation of CPs building blocks, synthesis and dimensionality.
Figure 1.2 Depiction of MOF-5 (Zn4O(BDC)3) as one of the most well-known MOFs. MOF-5 is synthesized using zinc nitrate and 1,4-benzenedicarboxyxlic acid (H2-BDC). In self-assembly process Zn(II) ions and deprotonated 1,4-benzenedicarboxyxlic acid bond together through coordination interactions between Zn(II) ions and BDC2−linkers to develop MOF-5 in solid phase [5].
In 2013, IUAC recommended that CP could be defined as a “coordination compound with repeating coordination entities extending in 1, 2, or 3 dimensions” while MOF is defined as “coordination network with organic ligands containing potential voids” [6]. It is necessary to mention that IUPAC defines coordination networks as a “coordination compound extending through repeating coordination entities in 2 or 3 dimensions” [6]. Based on these recommendations it could be concluded that CPs could be 1D, 2D or 3D with repetitive building blocks connected with coordination interactions while MOF are porous with hybrid organic–inorganic nature and they are at least extended in 2 dimensions. Also, there is another hidden point in these IUPAC definitions which must be clarified. In these definitions there is no persistence on crystallinity of the materials. In other word, it is not mentioned that CPs must be crystalline. It means that crystalline porous materials based on coordination interactions are coordination polymers while CPs could be both crystalline and amorphous. In another common approach about MOFs and CPs, it is realized that porous 3D structures may be called as MOFs [7]. In conclusion, the most important differences between MOFs and CPs revolve around their dimensionality and porosity [8].
After pioneering works of Yaghi in 1995 [9], a remarkable number of chemists and material engineers are engrossed in design and application of MOFs. Such great interest among scientists is because of their unique characters which make MOFs suitable for diverse industrial and real-life applications [10, 11].
As mentioned, MOFs are constructed based on organic and inorganic building blocks. In most cases, organic ligands are ditopic or polytopic O-donor ligands based on carboxylates linkers or N-donor ligands based on pyridine pillar spacers. Metal-containing units founded on different kind of metal ions, mostly based on lanthanide cations (like Ln(III), Tb(III), Eu(III), Dy(III) and Sm(III)), transition metals (like 3d cations like Zn(II), Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Fe(III) or Fe(II), Mn(II) and Cr(III) or Cr(II) and heavy transition metals like Cd(II), Zr(IV), Hf(IV)) and main metal ions (Al(III), or some of alkaline or alkaline-earth cations). As a result of such diversity in selection of building blocks, unlimited number of MOFs with different structural and practical properties can be developed by changing metal ion/clusters, using various combinations of these inorganic building blocks and infinite types of organic linkers with different lengths, functionalities and geometries. Additionally, since MOFs are developed based on organic and inorganic building blocks, their hybrid organic–inorganic nature is suitable for tuning the structure and application of MOFs.
MOFs are synthesized by coordination of organic linker to inorganic units by strong bonds [12]. These connections between organic and inorganic building blocks through coordination interactions are such that they create vacant spaces (pores) between the each individual building block. As a result of such porosity, MOFs provide accessible pore volume in the bulk of the materials moreover than accessible area at the surface of material. Right selection of the building blocks makes it possible to vary some parameters, such as the pore size (to increase pore diameter to 98 Å), density (to decrease to 0.126 g·cm−3) and surface area (typically in range from 1,000 to 10,000 m2·g−1) which are exceeding those of traditional porous materials such as zeolites and carbons [13]. In summary, porosity and surface area of MOFs could be tuned through right selection of organic ligands with correct size, flexibility and appropriate inorganic nodes.
The nature, strength and the number of coordination interactions between organic and inorganic building blocks of MOFs are the main reasons for evaluation of their stability. On one hand, selection of building blocks based on Hard-Soft acid-based theory is very beneficial for synthesis of highly stable MOFs [14]. For example hard metal ions such as Al(III) and Zr(IV) [15] could develop stable MOFs through connection with carboxylate-donor organic linker because these building blocks are hard Lewis acid and base, respectively. Another group of stable MOFs are based on selection of soft metal ions like late 3D metal ions and soft N-donor organic ligands like pyrazolate based linkers. On the other hand, the number of coordination bonds between inorganic nodes and organic linkers is another critical factor on the stability of MOFs. The higher number of coordination bonds, the higher stability of the MOF.
Another desirable character of MOFs is their crystalline structure. Selection of well-defined individual molecular building blocks could develop regular structure and periodic frameworks. As a result of their regular crystalline structure, we can tune their chemical and physical properties through logical designing of the framework and right selection of building blocks.
One of the most important advantages of MOFs from other conventional polymers or porous materials is the fact that we can tailor their chemical properties through rational choice of functional groups. Tunability in chemical functionality of MOFs could be provided via three functionalization strategies including selection of functional organic ligand, functionalization of inorganic nodes and functionalization of vacant spaces (pores) inside the framework of MOFs (Figure 1.3) [14, 16]. These functions could be introduced prior to the self-assembly process by selection of desirable functional building blocks (pre-synthesis functionalization strategy) or after synthesis of the frameworks (post-synthesis functionalization strategy) [17, 18]. Unlimited ways for functionalization of MOFs is key factor to control their chemical properties and host–guest interactions. Definitely, we can state that tunability in chemical functionality and consequent ability in control over host–guest chemistry of MOFs has very essential roles in absorbing the attraction of scientist toward MOFs.
Figure 1.3 Three strategies for functionalization of MOFs.
Considering the diverse and useful characteristics of MOFs including regular crystalline structure, high porosity and surface area, hybrid inorganic–organic nature, satisfactory structural stability and tunability in chemical functionality, they are employed for different types of applications such as gas storage and separation [19–23], heterogeneous catalysis [24, 25] and photocatalysis [26–28], sensing [29–33], removal and separation of hazardous chemicals [34–36], drug delivery [37], bio sensing [38–41] and other medical applications [42] electrical conductivity [43] and electrochemical applications [44], ion storage and conductivity [45, 46], and designing MOF-based energetic materials [47]. Such diversity in chemical properties and application of MOFs show that intensive studies are necessary to identify the maximum capability of MOFs for each type of applications.
We mentioned that there are three different strategies for functionalization of MOFs. Among these methods, functionalization of organic ligand absorbed massive attention thanks to unlimited diversity in synthesis of organic ligands with different length and shape as well as rich host–guest chemistry of organic functional groups. So, functionalized organic linkers are extensively applied for construction of functional metal-organic frameworks (FMOFs) [14, 48].
The most important reason for introduction of organic functional groups into the framework of MOFs is to control the host–guest chemistry of FMOFs and gain selectivity to special guest molecules in presence of other analytes or tailoring the photoelectrochemical properties of FMOFs. However, moreover than domination in the host–guest chemistry and chemical properties of FMOFs, introduction of organic functional groups influence on the structural properties of FMOFs through induced structural changes and different types of secondary interactions (Figure 1.4).
Although linker functionalization strategy gained lots of attention to control the chemical properties of FMOFs, FMOFs could be developed through other methods. For example a special kind of linker can be stabilized on inorganic nodes or special kind of functional materials like carbonitride, nanoparticles, dyes, graphene or graphene oxide or polyoxometalates can be incorporated into the pores of MOFs to fabricate a multi-functional MOF-based hybrid material (Figure 1.5) [49]. In addition, synergic cooperation of functions in the structure of FMOFs is useful for improvement of practical application of FMOFs.
Figure 1.4 Function–structure and function–application properties of functional MOFs. Function–structure properties include relationship between structural features of MOFs and functional groups while function–application properties encompass the effects of functional groups on different type of applications.
Figure 1.5 Different application of functional or multi-functional MOF-based materials [16].
For a coherent and purposeful study, organic functional groups are sorted in two different methods. Based on first approach, organic functional groups are classified owing to their chemical properties and structural similarities. In this view, applied functional groups into the structure of FMOFs are categorized in four major groups including (I) nitrogenbased functions, (II) oxygen-based functions, (III) sulfur-based functions and carbonyl-based functions. All these four major groups entail a number of organic functional groups (Figure 1.6). In addition to these four major groups of organic functional groups into the pores of FMOFs, there are some of other functions especially phosphonate and fluorine-based functions which are applied in the structure of FMOFs.
In the second approach, organic functional groups are classified based on their role in the structure of FMOFs. In this view functional groups are classified as coordinating sites (Figure 1.7) and gust-interactive sites (Figure 1.8). Functional groups as coordinating site are those which can coordinatively bond to metal ions during the synthesis of MOFs. Coordinating functional groups must be strong coordination bond donor with high chelation ability to develop stable FMOFs. There are two common types of coordinating functional groups. First common coordinating functions are O-donor functions such as sulfonate, phosphonate, enoxide and especially carboxylate. Other common coordinating functions are N-donor functions like pyridine, pyrazine and heterocyclic azole functions including pyrazole, triazole and tetrazole. Although, we mentioned that some functions like carboxylate, sulfonate, phosphonate, enoxide, pyridine, pyrazine and heterocyclic azole functions applied as coordinating sites, this does not mean that these functions did not apply as guest interactive sites. In other word, mentioned functions can apply as both coordinating and guest-interactive sites.
Figure 1.6 Classification of organic functional groups which are applied in synthesis of FMOFs based on their chemical characteristics and structural properties.
Figure 1.7 Common coordinating functional groups in the structure of FMOFs.
Guest-interactive functions are those enabling to interact with guest-molecules for special purpose. In this regard, the guest-interactive functions must remain free during the synthesis of FMOFs or introduced in the framework through post-synthesis modification. Almost all functions applied as guest interactive site to sensitize the FMOFs to special guest.
The next chapters of this book are structured based on these two approaches and effects of any function on the structure and application of FMOFs are discussed in details.
