Properties of Organometallic Compounds01:23

Properties of Organometallic Compounds

Organometallic compounds are compounds that contain a carbon–metal bond. Carbon belongs to an organyl group like alkyl, aryl, allyl, or benzyl groups. The metal can be from Group I or Group II of the periodic table, a transition metal, or a semimetal.
Metal-Ligand Bonds02:51

Metal-Ligand Bonds

The hemoglobin in the blood, the chlorophyll in green plants, vitamin B-12, and the catalyst used in the manufacture of polyethylene all contain coordination compounds. Ions of the metals, especially the transition metals, are likely to form complexes.
In these complexes, transition metals form coordinate covalent bonds, a kind of Lewis acid-base interaction in which both of the electrons in the bond are contributed by a donor (Lewis base) to an electron acceptor (Lewis acid). The Lewis acid in...

  • To utilize click chemistry for efficient MOF modification.
  • To demonstrate the method's applicability to different MOF classes.

Main Methods:

  • Conversion of amino groups on MOF linkers to azides using tert-butyl nitrite (tBuONO) and trimethylsilyl azide (TMSN3).
  • In-situ Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (click reaction) between azides and alkynes.
  • Application of the method to DMOF-NH2 and MIL-68(In)-NH2.

Main Results:

  • Successful postfunctionalization of MOFs in a single pot.
  • Achieved high functionalization yields (>90% grafting).
