HKUST-1 MOF in reline deep eutectic solvent: synthesis and phase transformation
Renata A. Maia, Benoît Louis, Stéphane A. Baudron
Abstract
(BTC)Cl also forms. It was unequivocally demonstrated that, upon heating in reline, HKUST-1 converts to the non-porous chloride-incorporating material. Hence, a novel feature of DES in MOF synthesis is uncovered: its role as a structure-directing agent, triggering the transformation between two different MOF structures.
