Metal–Organic Frameworks: Challenges Addressed via Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy

Abstract

Magnetic resonance spectroscopies occupy a premier position within the chemical sciences by revealing structure and dynamics in molecules and solids associated with photosynthesis, enzymology, Alzheimer proteins, pharmaceuticals, catalysts, polymers, and electronic materials. Here, we review the recent literature contributions of NMR and EPR spectroscopy towards the study of metal–organic frameworks from 2017 to mid-2022. We organize the review around what we perceive to be the intellectual challenges in MOF research: structure, dynamics, synthesis, properties, and function.
