- ItemSynthesis of multicomponent metal-organic frameworks and investigations of their physical properties : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry at Massey University, Manawatu, New Zealand(Massey University, 2019) Alkaş, AdilMulticomponent metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are built up from multiple ligands that are geometrically distinct. These ligands occupy specific positions in the MOF lattice. Installing different functionalities at precise locations in the framework is an important step in making MOFs for specific applications. This can be achieved by designing functionalized ligands for multicomponent MOFs. This study was, firstly, focused on design and synthesis of new linkers. The study then covered preparation of a number of quaternary MOFs. Furthermore, the study was focused on the physical and chemical properties of these MOFs, such as their catalytic activity, gas adsorption and fluorescence behaviours.
