Metal‐Organic Frameworks (MOFs): Multifunctional Platforms for Environmental Sustainability

Abstract Metal‐Organic Frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as versatile materials bridging inorganic and organic chemistry to address critical environmental challenges. Composed of metal nodes and organic linkers, these crystalline structures offer unique properties such as high surface area, tunable pore sizes, and structural diversity. Recent advancements in MOFs synthesis, particularly innovative approaches like mechanochemical, microwave‐assisted, and ultrasonic synthesis, have significantly enhanced sustainability by utilizing non‐toxic solvents, renewable feedstocks, and energy‐efficient processes, offering promising solutions to reduce environmental impact. This review highlights these novel methods and their contributions to improving MOFs functionality for applications in environmental remediation, gas capture, and energy storage. We examine the potential of MOFs in catalysis for pollutant degradation, water purification, and hazardous waste removal, as well as their role in next‐generation energy storage technologies, such as supercapacitors, batteries, and hydrogen production. Furthermore, we address challenges including scalability, stability, and long‐term performance, underscoring the need for continued innovation in synthesis techniques to enable large‐scale MOFs applications. Overall, MOFs hold transformative potential as multifunctional materials, and advancements in synthesis and sustainability are critical for their successful integration into practical environmental and energy solutions.
