Microwave-Assisted Solvothermal Synthesis and Optical Properties of Tagged MIL-140A Metal-Organic Frameworks
A series of tagged MIL-140A-R frameworks have been synthesized using a microwave-assisted solvothermal method. Compared with their UiO-66-R polymorphs, the absorption energies in the MIL-140A-R series (R = NH2, NO2, Br, Cl, and F) are extended toward the visible region because of the spatial arrangement of the linkers.
