Abstract

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can be defined as porous crystalline materials that obtained from the network synthesis of metal ions and clusters as nodes, and organic molecules as ligands. The flexibility of the components has led to the report of more than 20,000 different MOFs. MOF-5 can be mentioned as one of the most famous MOFs. These materials are divided into four categories of first, second, third, and fourth generation frameworks. There are various methods for the synthesis of MOFs, but the most common one is the solvothermal method. Metal-organic frameworks sometimes perform better than other porous materials, such as activated carbon or zeolites. These materials have exceptional properties such as high surface area (6000 m2/g), porosity and high pore volume. These features along with high adjustability and flexibility have led to wide applications in various fields. Applications like gas storage and separation, catalytic applications, biomedical such as drug release, sensors, membranes, and water purification
can be mentioned. In this article, in addition to introducing metal-organic frameworks, their structural features and synthesis methods and a number of common applications of these materials have been reviewed.
