Solvothermal Synthesis of the Metal-Organic Framework MOF-5 in Autoclaves Prepared by 3D Printing

The known metal-organic framework {Zn4O(BDC)3} (MOF-5 (I), where BDC is terephthalate anion) is synthesized by the solvothermal method in autoclaves prepared by 3D printing from polypropylene. The synthesized polymer is isolated in the individual state and characterized by elemental analysis and powder X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystal structures of MOF-5 and another coordination polymer based on zinc(II) terephthalate {Zn4O(BDC)3} · (ZnO)0.125 (SUMOF-2 (II)) obtained as a by-product of the solvothermal synthesis are confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis (СIF files ССDС nos. 1920366 (I) and 1926136 (II)).
