Introduction


1.1 Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs)
1.1.1 Introduction
The synthesis of new materials has been long considered as the most essential element in
advancing technology, however, the discovery of new solid-state materials with
outstanding properties such as high porosity has mostly been serendipitous, using methods
[1]referred to by critics as “shake and bake”, “mix and wait” and “heat and beat” . With the
[2]emergence of a new class of porous solids ca. twenty years ago , a logical and seemingly
simple way which is to link together molecular building blocks exhibiting the desired
[3]property, have been introduced . As a new domain of research, an explosion of papers
exhibits the more and more attention for this hybrid porous solid. Along the enormous
development of this family, many mew vocabularies were generated. In the first hybrid
[4-7]open frameworks , coordination polymers was generated to label these solids due to the
inorganic part which contained either isolated polyhedral or small cluster contained, like
in coordination chemistry. However, very soon, with the use of the inorganic parts with
large dimensionality for these hybrid solids, solids with the structure of chains (1D), layers
(2D), and even inorganic frameworks (3D) were synthesized, a more general term Metal-
[8]Organic Frameworks (MOFs) was then introduced with some derived acronyms, for
instance IRMOF (for Isoreticular MOFs), MMOFs (for microporous MOFs), PCP (for
porous coordination polymers) etc to identify some specificities of the corresponding
[9]series . Currently, the present contribution of hybrid solids is placed in their similarities
with the other families such as zeolite, their advantages, their potentialities and the
unprecedented properties they sometimes exhibit.

As defined by Gé rard Fé rey in the article [9], hybrid porous solids result from the reaction
between organic and inorganic species in order to build up three-dimensional frameworks
whose skeleton contains both organic and inorganic moieties only linked by strong bonds,
at variance to supramolecular chemistry. Similarly, O. M. Yaghi has also given a visual
description for these new porous solids with a definition of “molecular scaffold”: “To
produce a robust porous material one could envision constructing the equivalent of a
„molecular scaffold‟ by connecting rigid rod-li
