“…To adapt the "mix and wait" procedure 32 to TSE, first, we performed the small-scale extrusion process to prove the synthesis of ZIF-8. Then, we designed the setup for monitoring the extrusion process using in situ Raman spectroscopy and demonstrated its performance by monitoring the conversion of the reagents for the ZIF-8 formation along the extruder barrel.…”

“…Our previous study of the "mix and wait" reaction revealed that water dissolves HmeIm and initiates the reaction. 32 According to the observation of the extrusion process, water also changes the mixture rheology and flowability, thus affecting the reaction kinetics and residence time. In principle, ethanol is also a good solvent for HmeIm and was reported to facilitate the formation of the ZIF-8 over the carbonate side phase.…”

“…As a greener alternative to hot melt extrusion (HME), 31 we turned to our recently reported "mix and wait" synthesis of ZIF-8. 32 In this work, highly crystalline ZIF-8 was synthesized just by bringing solid basic zinc carbonate ([ZnCO 3 ] 2 • [Zn(OH) 2 ] 3 , ZnCarb) and 2-methylimidazole (HmeIm) into contact in a closed vial. Given the simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and environmental friendliness of this process, we decided to adapt it to reactive extrusion and achieve a larger production scale.…”

We report the scale-up of a batch solid synthesis of zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) for reactive extrusion. The crystalline product forms in the extruder directly under the mixture of solid 2-methylimidazole and basic zinc carbonate in the presence of a catalytic amount of liquid. The process parameters such as temperature, liquid type, feeding rate, and linker excess were optimized using the setup specifically designed for in situ Raman spectroscopy. Highly crystalline ZIF-8 with a Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area of 1816 m2 g–1 was quantitatively prepared at mild temperature using a catalytic amount of ethanol and a small excess of the linker. Finally, we developed a simple and comprehensive approach to evaluating the environmental friendliness and scalability of metal–organic framework (MOF) syntheses in view of their large-scale production.

The combination of atomically precise nanoclusters (APNCs) and reticular frameworks is promising for generating component‐specific nanocomposites with emergent properties. However, traditional liquid‐phase synthesis often hampers this potential by damaging APNCs and limiting combination diversity. Here, mechanochemical synthesis to explore the encapsulation of diverse oil‐ and water‐soluble APNCs within various reticular frameworks is employed, establishing a database of 21 unique APNC−framework combinations, including metal−organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent−organic frameworks (COFs), hydrogen−bonded organic frameworks (HOFs), and multivariate MOFs. These framework coatings not only spatially immobilize APNCs but also secure their structures, preventing aggregation and degradation while enhancing stability and activity. Encapsulating Au25 in HOFs resulted in a remarkable 315‐fold increase in catalytic activity compared to Au25 homogeneous catalyst, highlighting the framework's crucial role in catalytic enhancement. The mechanochemical synthesis strategy facilitates tailored support screening, catering to specific needs, and shows promise for developing multifunctional systems, including enzyme−APNC@frameworks material for cascade reactions.
