The multivariate modulation of MOFs allows for the simultaneous introduction of multiple functionalities at defect sites during synthesis, enhancing the MOF porosity. By the thoughtful choice of modulators' functionalities targeted at CO2 adsorption, the designed dimodulated MOF, UiO-66-NH2/SO3, has a 6.6 mmol g-1 CO2 adsorption at 273 K and 1 bar, a 2.3-fold increase compared to the pristine MOF and a 1.6-fold enhancement compared to the single-modulated MOFs. This enhancement is due to the cooperative effect of functional units, which is supported by Monte Carlo simulations.

Regioselectivity and Stereochemistry of Hydroboration
Hydroboration proceeds in a concerted fashion with the attack of borane on the π bond, giving a cyclic four-centered transition state. The –BH2 group is bonded to the less substituted carbon and –H to the more substituted carbon. The concerted nature requires the simultaneous addition of –H and –BH2 across the same face of the alkene giving syn stereochemistry.
