In this work, a pair of 1D chiral lead halide perovskites (<i>R</i>/<i>S</i>-4MeOPEA)PbCl₃ (4MeOPEA = (4-methoxyphenyl)ethylamine) were synthesized, and characterized systematically. Crystal structure analysis revealed that the one-dimensional (1D) inorganic chain formed by face-shared lead chloride octahedra was separated by the chiral organic spacers. The distorted octahedra endows them with broadband bluish-white light emission centered covering the range 350—700 nm with a width of 104 nm. In addition, the highly anisotropic second-harmonic generation (SHG) with a near unity polarization ratio was observed. This work presents a fresh example of 1D chiral perovskite with exotic linear and nonlinear optical properties, which could provide a new footstone for further optoelectronic devices.</p>\u0000 <p>\u0000 </p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":151,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of Chemistry","volume":"43 9","pages":"1001-1008"},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143749966","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Guest species play a crucial role in maintaining charge balance and structural stability of MOFs. In addition to metal nodes and organic linkers, the type and distribution of guests can significantly influence the properties of MOFs, such as optics, magnetism, chirality, and catalysis. Understanding the role of guests to the properties of MOFs remains great challenge due to the complex chemical and electronic structures of MOFs. Recently, progresses on guest-dependent properties of MOFs have been reported, which not only advanced our knowledge of host-guest interactions and energy transfer mechanisms but also led to intriguing applications such as luminescent sensors, tunable magnetic materials, enantioselective materials, and catalysts. Crucially, the interactions between the host and guest can be finely tuned by altering the type and amount of guests without changing the core framework, allowing for precise regulation of targeted properties. In this review, we will explore how guest-induced variations impact the optic, magnetic, chiral, and catalytic properties of MOFs, followed by an examination of the synergistic effects between hosts and guests, which is highly important for the development of advanced functional materials.</p>\u0000 \u0000 <p>\u0000 </p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Key Scientists</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Plenty of outstanding scientists have reported a great number of MOFs with their interesting properties.
