Impacts of the Imidazolate Linker Substitution (CH3, Cl, or Br) on the Structural and Adsorptive Properties of ZIF-8

Zeolitic Imidazolate Frameworks (ZIFs) represent a thriving subclass of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) owing to the large variety of their topologies, of which some of them are common with zeolites, and the ability to modulate the chemistry of their frameworks as well as the hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity balance, making them perfect examples of the isoreticular chemistry concept. One peculiar structural feature of ZIFs is their potential for structural transitions by rotation (or swing) of their linkers under external stimuli (guest adsorption, mechanical constraints, etc.). This singular characteristic, often denominated “swing effect” or “gate opening”, is related to flexible ZIFs. Our study focuses on the influence of the functional group (−CH3, −Cl, −Br) borne in position 2 by the imidazolate linker on the flexible/stiff nature of three isoreticular ZIFs with SOD topology. In the first part, we report the structures of ZIF-8_Cl and ZIF-8_Br, two halogenated analogs of the well-known ZIF-8 (herein nam...
