Metal–Organic‐Framework‐based Gas Chromatographic Separation

Abstract Metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) have been applied in various fields because of their fascinating structures and excellent properties. MOFs can serve as stationary phases in gas chromatography (GC), which has led to exceptional improvements of performance. Here, we summarize the application of MOFs in GC based on the classification of analytes. The advantages and separation mechanism of MOFs as stationary phases in GC are discussed in combination with the characteristics and structures of MOFs. The limitations are also summarized in this review, which can provide prospects on further research for the applications of MOFs.
