The series Topics in Current Chemistry Collections presents critical reviews from the journal Topics in Current Chemistry organized in topical volumes. The scope of coverage is all areas of chemical science including the interfaces with related disciplines such as biology, medicine and materials science. The goal of each thematic volume is to give the non-specialist reader, whether in academia or industry, a comprehensive insight into an area where new research is emerging which is of interest to a larger scientific audience.Each review within the volume critically surveys one aspect of that topic and places it within the context of the volume as a whole. The most significant developments of the last 5 to 10 years are presented using selected examples to illustrate the principles discussed. The coverage is not intended to be an exhaustive summary of the field or include large quantities of data, but should rather be conceptual, concentrating on the methodological thinking that will allow the non-specialist reader to understand the information presented. Contributions also offer an outlook on potential future developments in the field.
Covalent organic frameworks-based nanomaterials have emerged as promising candidates for energy applications owing to their superior electrochemical properties, surface area, nano-device integration, multifunctionality, printability, and mechanical flexibility. This book provides fundamentals, various synthesis approaches, and applications of covalent organic frameworks-based nanomaterials and their composites for generating energy. The main objective of this book is to provide current, state-of-the-art knowledge about covalent organic frameworks-based nanomaterials and their composites for supercapacitors, batteries, photovoltaics, and fuel cells, covering almost the entire spectrum in the energy field under one title. Aimed at widening our fundamental understanding of covalent organic frameworks and mechanisms for realization and advancement in devices with improved energy efficiency and high storage capacity, this book will provide new directions for scientists, researchers, and students to better understand the principles, technologies, and applications of covalent organic frameworks.

Metal-organic frameworks represent a new class of materials that may solve the hydrogen storage problem associated with hydrogen-fueled vehicles. In this first definitive guide to metal-organic framework chemistry, author L. MacGillivray addresses state-of-art developments in this promising technology for alternative fuels. Providing professors, graduate and undergraduate students, structural chemists, physical chemists, and chemical engineers with a historical perspective, as well as the most up-to-date developments by leading experts, Metal-Organic Frameworks examines structure, symmetry, supramolecular chemistry, surface engineering, metal-organometallic frameworks, properties, and reactions.
This book provides a comprehensive review of the structure and function of organic and metal-organic supramolecular materials, which will be of interest to students and researchers in this field.
Owing to the extensive interest in construction of functional metal organic frameworks (FMOFs), this book discusses the roles of functional groups on the structure and application of metal organic frameworks (MOFs). The contents of the book are classified based on the structural and chemical properties of organic functions, in order to make readers able to compare the different effects of each function on the structure and application of the MOFs. In each chapter, the chemical properties of applied functional groups are gathered to give deeper insight into the roles of organic functions in the structure and application of MOFs. In the function-application properties, the authors discuss how a functional group can dominate the host-guest chemistry of the MOFs and how this host-guest chemistry can expand the effectiveness and efficiency of the material in different fields of applications. Finally, function-structure properties are discussed. In function-application properties, it is discussed how a functional group can affect the topology, porosity, flexibility and stability of the framework. The features of this subject are novel and are presented for the first time.
