This is the design, synthesis and detailed investigation of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), or coordination polymers. The search of the Web of Science database shows an exponential growth of the number of relevant publications in recent years (more than 73 000). The Hirsch index only for papers that have the expression `metal-organic framework' in the title is 420; there are 1983 reviews among these publications. The close attention of researchers to this class of compounds is due to the very broad range of MOFs functional properties and, hence, prospects for high-tech practical applications as components of new-generation functional materials with enhanced or unique characteristics. For example, porous metal-organic frameworks show record-breaking adsorption characteristics among all materials of this type, which dictates their use for compact storage of industrially important hard-to-compress gases (hydrogen, methane, acetylene), purification and separation of complex mixtures, including industrial discharges and biologically active molecules, heterogeneous catalysis, targeted drug delivery and prolongation of drug action and for the development of highly sensitive new type sensors, conductors and so on. A separate important problem is to predict the properties of new MOFs as functions of their structure, in particular, the nature of organic and inorganic components MOFs. This issue includes three reviews covering the main modern trends in the development of this area. The review by Corresponding Member of the RAS V.P.Fedin and coworkers describes strategies and approaches to the development of new porous MOFs as a base for highly efficient and highly selective sorbents for the separation of valuable industrial raw materials such as light hydrocarbons and mixtures of hydrocarbons with similar boiling points and molecule sizes. The review by Professor V.A.Blatov and coworkers is devoted to full systematization of the topological types of metal-organic frameworks and development of mathematical approaches for the prediction of structure and properties of metal-organic frameworks: the search for chemical composition ± structure ± property relationships and development of databases and artificial intelligence systems. Particular attention is paid to the properties of proton-conducting metal-organic frameworks, which have been actively studied in the last decade due to the need to find components for new alternative energy sources. The possibility of varying the properties and potential applications of metal-organic frameworks depending on the nature of the bridging organic ligand and inorganic component is demonstrated in the review by Corresponding Member of the RAS Yu.G.Gorbunova and co-workers in relation to porphyrin ligands. The unique properties of these macrocyclic organic compounds considerably expand the scope of potential applicability of porphyrin-based MOFs in comparison with the traditional metal-organic framew","PeriodicalId":21523,"journal":{"name":"Russian Chemical Reviews","volume":"91 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":7.7,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59011679","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The key to this issue is development of the chemistry of stable organic radicals, which paved the path towards compounds for various functional purposes: radical reagents, initiators for controlled radical polymerization, efficient redox catalysts, spin labels, highly sensitive means for analysis, medical diagnostics and theranostics, building blocks for magnetic and redox-active systems, and key components of organic electronics, spintronics and electric batteries. The sharp increase in the applied potential of organic radicals was boosted by the development of methods for studying both stable and short-lived paramagnetic compounds, in particular high-spin systems. These methods include, first of all, pulsed EPR techniques, SQUID magnetometry, X-ray diffraction, including protocols using synchrotron radiation sources, scanning electron and force microscopy, and magneto-structural analysis by polarized neutron diffraction. A huge step forward was made by calculation methods, which have formed an efficient tool for modelling and prediction of the magnetic properties of magnetically active systems. The studies of Russian scientists are making a considerable contribution to the development of chemistry and physics of organic radicals and their applied potential. Russian researchers are traditionally active participants and organizers of conferences devoted to the chemistry of organic radicals, molecule-based magnets, molecular spin devices, and electron paramagnetic resonance. This issue of Russian Chemical Reviews addresses a large area of research related to nitroxide radicals containing an unsaturated moiety at the nitrogen atom, including their physicochemical properties, their computational prediction and fields of their practical application. Among the applications, noteworthy is the design of molecular magnets, development of redoxand photoswitchable molecular systems, redox-active components for organic and hybrid batteries and the use as catalysts and reagents in selective oxidative processes of organic synthesis. Special attention is deserved by a new trend of research related to the design of qubits and qudits based on stable organic radicals and special hybrid systems to solve the problem of scaling and stability in quantum calculations. In all these applied fields, the possibility of varying the structure of stable spin carriers over fairly broad limits will always give rise to new ideas and intentions. We express hope that this issue of Russian Chemical Reviews will contribute to this goal.","PeriodicalId":21523,"journal":{"name":"Russian Chemical Reviews","volume":"91 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":7.7,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59011266","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Particular attention is given to the design of materials for sustainable hydrogen energy applications, including hydrogen production, purification, storage, and conversion to energy. The review highlights the key role of oxide-supported metal or alloy nanoparticles as catalysts in the hydrogen production via the conversion of natural gas or alcohols. An alternative approach is the pyrolysis of hydrocarbons giving hydrogen and carbon. The direct production of high-purity hydrogen can be performed using electrolysis or membrane catalysis. Apart from conventional hydrogen storage methods such as the compression and liquefaction, the hydrogen alloy absorption and chemical conversion to liquid carriers (ammonia and toluene cycles) are considered. Fuel cells, containing catalysts and proton-conducting membranes as the key components, are used for hydrogen energy generation. Binary platinum alloys or core – shell structures supported on carbon or oxides can be employed to facilitate the oxygen electroreduction and CO electrooxidation in low-temperature fuel cells. High conductivity and selectivity are provided by perfluorinated sulfonic acid membranes. The high cost of the latter materials dictates the development of alternative membrane materials. A crucial issue in high-temperature fuel cells is the necessity of reducing the operating temperature and ohmic losses. This problem can be solved by designing thin-film materials and replacing oxygen-conducting ceramic membranes by proton-conducting membranes.

The most promising direction for the conversion of biomass is the synthesis of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, which is regarded as a platform chemical, the basis for the synthesis of valuable compounds, including monomers and polymers. The move of the polymer industry to renewable plant materials will contribute to solving global environmental problems and ensure the sustainability and environmental safety of plastics production. This review analyzes recent advances in the preparation of key C6-furan platform chemicals, such as 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid, 2,5-diformylfuran, 2,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)furan, levulinic acid, and their use for the production of monomers and polymers based on renewable plant biomass. Production processes of widely known furan polyesters and polyamides, such as polyethylene-, polypropylene-, polybutylene furanoates, polyhexamethylene furanamide, are considered, as well as developments towards novel promising materials that are furan copolymers and polymer mixtures. For the first time, studies have been systematized aimed at converting liquid and solid wastes of the synthesis of platform chemicals, known as humins, into a range of value-added products, including organic compounds, porous carbon materials, thermosetting binders, and anticorrosive coatings that can replace similar materials based on fossil raw materials. Economic and environmental prospects and problems of production and consumption of furan polymers are considered.
