Chromatography in a Single Metal−Organic Framework (MOF) Crystal

Abstract

Millimeter-sized single MOF-5 crystals are used as “chromatographic columns” to effectively separate mixtures of organic dyes. Remarkably, owing to the nanoscopic pore dimensions and the molecular-level interactions between the migrating molecules and the MOF scaffold, the separations occur over a distance of only a few hundred micrometers which is unambiguously confirmed by fluorescence confocal microscopy.
