The large-pore iron(III) carboxylate MIL-100(Fe) with a zeotype architecture has been isolated under hydrothermal conditions, its structure solved from synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data, while Friedel-Crafts benzylation catalytic tests indicate a high activity and selectivity for MIL-100(Fe).
The coordinatively unsaturated sites in MIL-101, Cr3(F,OH)(H2O)2O[(O2C)-C6H4-(CO2)]3⋅n H2O (n≈25), having zeotypic giant pores can be selectively functionalized in a way differing from that of mesoporous silica. Metal–organic frameworks, grafted with ethylenediamine or diethylenetriamine on the unsaturated CrIII sites of MIL-101, exhibit remarkably high activities in the Knoevenagel condensation relative to that of the mesophase.

Mesoporous MOFs MIL-100 and MIL-101 adsorb huge amounts of CO2 and CH4. Characterization was performed using both manometry and gravimetry in different laboratories for isotherms coupled with microcalorimetry and FTIR to specify the gas-solid interactions. In particular, the uptake of carbon dioxide in MIL-101 has been shown to occur with a record capacity of 40 mmol g(-1) or 390 cm3STP cm(-3) at 5 MPa and 303 K.
Recent ideas concerning site-selective functionalization of chromium terephtha-late MIL-101 are discussed, focusing on the utilization of unsaturated Cr(III) sites (see image). Recent advances in synthesis, selective surface functionalization, outstanding sorption properties, encapsulation of nanoobjects, and catalytic applications in MIL-101 are also discussed.
