Postsynthetic Modification of an Alkyne-Tagged Zirconium Metal–Organic Framework via a “Click” Reaction

Abstract

Herein, we report the synthesis and postsynthetic modification of a novel alkyne-tagged zirconium metal-organic framework, UiO-68-alkyne. The alkynyl groups in the pore surface were subjected to a "click" reaction, achieving quantitative conversion and maintaining the crystallinity of the framework.
