Phosphonate-MOFs,-HOFs: Next generation of microporous compounds
Among the other metal organic framework (MOF) familieis, phosphonic acids provide the richest metal binding for MOF synthesis, and they are known to exhibit exceptional thermal and chemical stabilities. Due to the synthetic difficulties, the total number of microporous phosphonate-MOFs are still limited in the literature. In this work, we provide design and synthesis strategies to form semiconductive, proton conductive microporous MOFs and hydrogen bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) constructed using structure directing arylphosphonic acids.
Speaker Biography
Dr. Gündoğ Yücesan (TU-Berlin)
Dr. Gündoğ Yücesan finished his bachelor degree at Boğaziçi University in Istanbul in 2002. He finished his PhD work at Syracuse University in New York on the synthesis of hybrid organic/inorganic frameworks. In addition to his synthetic chemistry work, he had a postdoctoral experience in biochemistry at University of Michigan-Ann Arbor. Currently, he is finishing his habilitation at TU-Berlin in material science. His research interests include design and synthesis of new MOF families and their applications in supercapacitors and biology.
