Mechanochemical synthesis of mixed metal, mixed linker, glass-forming metal–organic frameworks

Green Chem., 2020, 22,2505-2512
DOI: 10.1039/D0GC00546K, Paper
Michael F. Thorne, María Laura Ríos Gómez, Alice M. Bumstead, Shichun Li, Thomas D. Bennett
Methods to produce glass forming metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) rely on solvothermal syntheses which have high energy requirements, low yields and large teratogenic solvent usage. We present mechanochemical methods to overcome these issues.
