Recent Electroanalytical Studies of Metal-Organic Frameworks: A Mini-Review
1a Department of Chemistry , Faculty of Physics & Chemistry, Alzahra University , Tehran , Iran.
Abstract:
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are attracting considerable attention because of their unique structural properties, such as high surface areas, tunable pore sizes, and open metal sites, which enable them to have potential applications in gas storage, catalysis, sensors, drug release, and separation. Also, MOFs can be fabricated and functionalized as electrochemically functional frameworks with perfect electrochemical properties and electrocatalytic activities. This review focuses on the electroanalytical applications of MOFs between 2010 and 2014 years.

Metal-Ligand Bonds
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...
Crystal Field Theory - Octahedral Complexes
To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.
CFT focuses on...
