Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are currently attracting considerable attention,[1] largely because of their potential for porosity, and their consequent use in applications as diverse as gas storage,[2] catalysis,[3] separations,[4] and drug delivery.[5] The first generation of MOFs were formed by linking together metal centers with simple, commercially available bridging ligands, such as 1, 4-benzenedicarboxylate (bdc),[6] but there has since been an increasing shift towards more complex structures and increased functionality. For example, MOFs in which the pores contain accessible hydrogenbonding groups,[7] unsaturated metal centers,[8] or chirality [9] have been reported and studied, and the preparation of dynamic porous materials, capable of undergoing guestinduced transformations or reformations, has been explored.[10]Another approach to forming functionalized networks is to undertake reactions on preformed MOFs, converting one solid state material into another. The incorporation of an additional functional group, a “tag”, into a linking ligand offers the opportunity to form structures in which this group is preserved during the MOF synthesis, allowing it to project into the pores or channels of the network structure. We define a “tag” as a group or functionality that is stable and innocent (that is, non-structure-defining) during MOF formation, but that can be transformed by a post-synthetic modification. This approach is shown schematically in Figure1. A similar concept of tagging has also recently been applied in medicinal chemistry.[11]
