Oxygen is a critical gas for medical and industrial settings. Much of today's global oxygen supply is via inefficient technologies such as cryogenic distillation, membranes or zeolites. Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) promise a superior alternative for oxygen separation, as their fundamental chemistry can in principle be tailored for reversible and selective oxygen capture. We evaluate the characteristics...

In article number 2004351, Ryotaro Matsuda and co‐workers present a bifunctional MOF that exhibits activation of triplet oxygen into singlet oxygen under UV‐light irradiation and the successive oxygen trapping in liquids, providing a paradigm shift in the field of gas adsorption in MOF nanospace from “gas‐phase molecular adsorption” to “liquid‐phase molecular adsorption.”
Nanoporous materials can adsorb small molecules into their nanospaces. However, the trapping of light gas molecules dissolved in solvents suffers from low concentration and poor adsorption affinity. Here, the reversible trapping and releasing of dissolved oxygen are shown through integrating photosensitization and chemical capturing abilities into a metal–organic framework (MOF), MOMF‐1. 9,10‐Di(4‐pyridyl)anthracene...
