Ln-MOF Pseudo-Merohedral Twinned Crystalline Family as Solvent-Free Heterogeneous Catalysts
Stable organic radical stacked by in situ coordination to rare earth cations in MOF materials
With the correct choice of the solvothermal conditions, we have achieved the unprecedented in situ formation of the free radical form of the anthraquinone-1,5-disulfonate molecule, and its favorable organization. The semiquinone radicals are coordinated to rare-earth cations to produce a 2D framework with a very high charge mobility and electric conductivity through the π-π-interactions. The existence of AQDS 3- anion radicals is proven on the base of: i) the electrical neutrality: elemental analyses for the different lanthanide RPF-8 bulks, the maximum residual electron densities in the structure, rule out the existence of any other neutralizing ion, ii) the geometrical modifications in the antraquinone molecules, and iii) although less definitive, due to the low magnetic moment μ = 0.39 μ B, the exhibited paramagnetism for the La (3+) with no unpaired electrons. © 2012 The Royal Society of Chemistry.This work has been supported by Spanish MCYT Projects Mat 2007-60822, 2010-17571, and 2008-06542-C04, the Project Consolider-Ingenio CSD2006-2001, and the Project of Comunidad Autónoma de Madrid (S2009/MAT-1756).Peer Reviewe

Indium metal-organic frameworks as catalysts in solvent-free cyanosilylation reaction
Two new Indium MOFs with the bending multicarboxylate ligand H 2dpmda as a linker and different N-donor ancillary ligands were obtained; the two compounds are isoreticular with 2D-hcb uninodal 3-connected nets. Comparison of their activity in cyanosilylation reactions with another eight In-MOFs is also reported. Eight out of the ten resulted in being good catalysts under mild and environmentally friendly conditions. Correlations between indium coordination number (CN), framework topology and catalytic activity are made and discussed, demonstrating that among the studied MOFs, the indium material named InPF-6 with the formula [In2(dpa) 3(1,10-phen)2]·H2O is the most effective catalyst. A possible catalytic mechanism is discussed. © 2013 The Royal Society of Chemistry.L. M.

Toward understanding the structure-catalyst activity relationship of new indium MOFs as catalysts for solvent-free ketone cyanosilylation
Four new indium metal–organic frameworks, MOFs, namely [In2(hfipbb)3(1,10-phen)2]·2H2O (InPF-12), [In2(hfipbb)3(2,2′-bipy)2]·2H2O (InPF-13), [In2(hfipbb)3(4,4′-bipy)] (InPF-14) and [In4(OH)4(hfipbb)4(4,4′-bipy)] (InPF-15), (InPF = indium polymeric framework, hfipbb = hexafluoroisopropylidene bisbenzoate, phen = phenantroline, bipy = bipyridine), have been hydrothermally obtained and result in efficient Lewis acid catalysts in solvent-free cyanosilylation of carbonyl compounds. For acetophenone: (i) the coordination number and μ-OH groups presence seem to be decisive factors to obtain a better catalytic behavior and (ii) the presence of Lewis base moieties (C[double bond, length as m-dash]O groups not coordinated to indium cation), besides the Lewis acid sites, creates a two-component catalytic system, based on the “dual activation” phenomenon that makes InPF-15 the best catalyst in this type of reaction. It was also found that the use of this highly reactive, recyclable and environmentally benign catalyst allows the efficient synthesis of various trimethylsilyl cyanohydrins from a wide range of cyclic, aliphatic and aromatic ketones.L.M.A.-D. acknowledges a FPI scholarship from the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (MINECO) and Fondo Social Europeo from the EU.

Insight into lewis acid catalysis with alkaline-earth MOFs: The role of polyhedral symmetry distortions
We propose a multidisciplinary approach to face the interpretation of heterogeneous catalysis with alkaline-earth metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Their oxygen-based polyhedra, which do not exhibit regular geometries, do act as very active Lewis acid sites. Four novel alkaline-earth MOFs that belong to three different structural types - Mg-AEPF-11, Mg-APF-12, Ca-AEPF-13 and Sr-APF-13 - are reported, together with their net topologies, and a study of the symmetry distortions around the alkaline-earth metal polyhedra by using a continuous shape mapping (CShM) description. These MOFs are good catalysts in the selective hydrogenation of styrene. Even more, Sr-AEPF-13 shows the best conversions ever published with alkaline-earth MOFs for the hydrogenation of activated alkenes under mild conditions. A combination of crystallographic and topological analysis and theoretical calculations, together with experimental catalytic results, has been applied to understand the catalytic activity of these four novel alkaline-earth MOFs. This work demonstrates that the presence of symmetry-distorted alkaline-earth polyhedra gives rise to highly catalytic-active MOFs in the hydrogenation of activated alkenes. A matter of shape! There are many aspects that remain poorly understood in catalysis with alkaline-earth metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Their metal polyhedra, which do not exhibit regular geometries, act as very active Lewis acids. In this work a new multidisciplinary approach is proposed to understand the catalytic activity of four novel alkaline-earth MOFs in the selective hydrogenation of alkenes (see figure).

Synchronizing substrate activation rates in multicomponent reactions with metal-organic framework catalysts
A study on the influence of the cation coordination number, number of Lewis acid centers, concurrent existence of Lewis base sites, and structure topology on the catalytic activity of six new indium MOFs, has been carried out for multicomponent reactions (MCRs). The new indium polymeric frameworks, namely [In(OH)(popha)(HO)]·3 HO (InPF-16), [In(popha)(2,2′-bipy)]·3 HO (InPF-17), [In(OH)(popha)(4,4′-bipy)]·4 HO (InPF-18), [In(popha)(4,4′-bipy)]·3 HO (InPF-19), [In(OH)(Hpopha)]·0.5 (1,7-phen) (InPF-20), and [In(popha)(1,10-phen)]·4 HO (InPF-21) (InPF=indium polymeric framework, Hpopha=5-(4-carboxy-2-nitrophenoxy)isophthalic acid, phen=phenanthroline, bipy=bipyridine), have been hydrothermally obtained by using both conventional heating (CH) and microwave (MW) procedures. These indium frameworks show efficient Lewis acid behavior for the solvent-free cyanosilylation of carbonyl compounds, the one pot Passerini 3-component (P-3CR) and the Ugi 4-component (U-4CR) reactions. In addition, InPF-17 was found to be a highly reactive, recyclable, and environmentally benign catalyst, which allows the efficient synthesis of α-aminoacyl amides. The relationship between the Lewis base/acid active site and the catalytic performance is explained by the 2D seven-coordinated indium framework of the catalyst InPF-17. This study is an attempt to highlight the main structural and synthetic factors that have to be taken into account when planning a new, effective MOF-based heterogeneous catalyst for multicomponent reactions.This work has been supported by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (MINECO) projects MAT2010‐17571, MAT2013‐45460‐R, MAT2011‐29020‐C02‐02, FAMA S2009/MAT‐1756, Comunidad Autónoma de Madrid, and Consolider‐Ingenio CSD2006‐2001.
