Sulfur-tagged metal-organic frameworks and their post-synthetic oxidation.
A series of sulfur-tagged zinc MOFs containing functionalised 4,4'-biphenyldicarboxylate ligands has been prepared: oxidative post-synthetic modification with dimethyldioxirane has converted the sulfide tags into sulfones, leaving the MOF networks intact.
