Rapid desolvation-triggered domino lattice rearrangement in a metal–organic framework
Abstract
Topological transitions between significantly different phases typically require extreme conditions to collectively break chemical bonds and overcome the stress caused to the original structure by altering its correlated bond environment. In this work, we present a case system that can achieve rapid rearrangement of the whole lattice of a metal–organic framework (MOF) through a ‘domino’ alteration of the bond connectivity under mild conditions. The system transforms from a disordered amorphous MOF with low porosity to a highly porous and crystalline isomer within 40 seconds upon activation (solvent exchange and desorption), resulting in a significant increase in surface area, from 725 to 2,749 m2/g–1. Spectroscopic measurements show that this counter-intuitive lattice rearrangement involves a metastable intermediate that results from solvent removal on coordinatively unsaturated metal sites. In conclusion, this amorphous–crystalline switch between two topological distinct MOFs is shown to be reversible over four cycles through activation and re-immersion in polar solvents.
