π Tender Overview
Bringing Nanospace To Life By Adapting Pore Environments To Chemical Complexity
Unlocking The Potential Of Pore Chemistrymetal-Organic Frameworks (Mofs) Are A Class Of Hybrid Crystalline Materials Built From The Interconnection Of Metal Nodes And Organic Ligands. Their Ultrahigh Porosity, And Unprecedented Chemical And Structural Tuneability Have Created Interest In Applications From Storage And Separation To Catalysis. The Eu-Funded Livingpore Project Will Untap The Potential Of Pore Sequencing To Control The Conformational Response Of Frameworks And Encapsulated Guests To Lay Definitive Understanding On How Reticular Frameworks Can Be Used To Respond To (Transformable) Or Select (Transformative) Specific Molecular Recognition Patterns For Cooperative Selection In A Crystalline Solid. The Project Pursues A Shift In The Current Perception Of Mofs Into Unique Porous Materials Capable Of Structural/Functional Responses Closer To Biological Systems To Enable Distinctive Applications Currently Unthinkable Of, That Will Be Initially Demonstrated In Separation And Biocatalysis.
