ABOUT MuPoMat

Welcome to our website

Mupomat is a small but growing interdisciplinary team formed by Dr. Emilio Pardo (Profesor Titular), Dr. Jesús Ferrando Soria (Junior Leader – Retaining fellowships La Caixa), Dr. Marta Viciano (contracted post-doctoral researcher), Dr Nuria Martín (Juan de la Cierva formación) and Estefanía Tiburcio, Cristina Negro, and Paula Escamilla (PhD students), with expertise in the coordination chemistry, use of post-synthetic methods and multifunctional materials fields. We are settled at the Instituto de Ciencia Molecular (ICMol), which has been awarded with a María de Maeztu Unit of Excellence. Our research lines include the preparation of highly robust and well-characterised metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and their use in environmental remediation, magnetism and catalysis.

A Biocompatible Aspartic-Decorated Metal−Organic Framework with Tubular Motif Degradable under Physiological Conditions (Inorg. Chem. 2021, 60, 18, 14221–14229)

A Biocompatible Aspartic-Decorated Metal−Organic Framework with Tubular Motif Degradable under Physiological Conditions (Inorg. Chem. 2021, 60, 18, 14221–14229)

By Emilio / marzo 3, 2022
Achieving a precise control of the final structure of metal−organic frameworks (MOFs) is necessary to obtain desired physical properties. Here, we describe how the use of a metalloligand design strategy and a judicious choice of ligands inspired from nature is a versatile approach to succeed in this challenging task. We report a new porous chiral [...]

Switching of easy-axis to easy-plane anisotropy in cobalt(II) complexes (Inorg. Chem. Front., 2021,8, 5158-5168)

Switching of easy-axis to easy-plane anisotropy in cobalt(II) complexes (Inorg. Chem. Front., 2021,8, 5158-5168)

By Emilio / marzo 3, 2022
A tetranuclear cubane-type complex [Co4(ntfa)4(CH3O)4(CH3OH)4] (1) with a {Co4O4} core, and a mononuclear complex [Co(ntfa)2(CH3OH)2] (2) have been rationally obtained by adjusting the ratio of the β-diketonate and Co(II) ions, with the synthetic processes being monitored by in situ microcalorimetry. Then, following synthetic conditions to obtain 2, but using three distinct N-donor coligands – 2,2’-bipyridyl [...]

Mixed component metal-organic frameworks: Heterogeneity and complexity at the service of application performances (Coordination Chemistry Reviews 451 (2022) 214273)

By Emilio / marzo 2, 2022
The synthesis of mixed-component metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) –including multivariate MOFs (MTVMOFs), multicomponent MOFs, mixed-metals MOFs and mixed-ligands and metals MOFs– is becoming a very active research field. This is mainly based on the unique possibilities these materials offer to incorporate multiple functionalities and in how this heterogenity and complexity is translated in unexpected properties, which [...]

MOF–stabilized perfluorinated palladium cages catalyze the additive–free aerobic oxidation of aliphatic alcohols to acids (Chem. Eur. J. 2021, e202103781)

MOF–stabilized perfluorinated palladium cages catalyze the additive–free aerobic oxidation of aliphatic alcohols to acids (Chem. Eur. J. 2021, e202103781)

By Emilio / marzo 2, 2022
Extremely high electrophilic metal complexes, composed by a metal cation and very electron poor –donor ancillary ligands, are expected to be privileged catalysts for oxidation reactions in organic chemistry. However, their low lifetime prevents any use in catalysis. Here we show the synthesis of fluorinated pyridine–Pd2+ coordinate cages within the channels of an anionic tridimensional [...]

Metal-Organic Frameworks as Unique Platforms to Gain Insight of σ-Hole Interactions for the Removal of Organic Dyes from Aquatic Ecosystems (Chem. Eur. J. 2022, e202200034)

Metal-Organic Frameworks as Unique Platforms to Gain Insight of σ-Hole Interactions for the Removal of Organic Dyes from Aquatic Ecosystems (Chem. Eur. J. 2022, e202200034)

By Emilio / marzo 2, 2022
The combination of high crystallinity and rich host-guest chemistry in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), have situated them in an advantageous position, with respect to traditional porous materials, to gain insight on specific weak noncovalent supramolecular interactions. In particular, sulfur σ-hole interactions are known to play a key role in the biological activity of living beings as [...]
