The UV research groups (GIUV) are regulated in the 1st chapter of the Regulation ACGUV48/2013, which explains the procedure for creating new research structures. They are basic research and organizational structures that result from the voluntary association of researchers that share objectives, facilities, resources and common lines of research. These researchers are also committed to the consolidation and stability of their activity, work in groups and the capability to achieve a sustainable funding.

The research groups included in the previously mentioned Regulation are registered in the Register of Research Structures of the Universitat de València (REIUV), managed by the Office of the Vice-principal for Research and Scientific Policies. The basic information of these organisms can be found in this website.

Multifunctional Porous Materials - Mupomat

Reference of the Group:

GIUV2019-465

 
Description of research activity:

Development of 2D and 3D porous materials with applications in catalysis, magnetism and environmental remediation. In particular, the group works with a type of materials called porous coordination polymers or metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). To this end, we use the tools offered by coordination chemistry to synthesise materials with known architectures, high structural stability and the possibility of functionalising the pores of the materials "à la carte" using the "complex as ligand" technique. This allows the effective use of these materials both for the selective capture of pollutants and for the preparation of subnanometric metal clusters for application in catalysis.

Scientific-technical goals:
  • Synthesis of highly stable porous coordination polymers (MOFs) using rational assembly methods with oxamate and oxamidate ligands.
  • Synthesis of functional compounds in MOFs with catalytic and magnetic applications. This includes both the encapsulation of coordination compounds and subnanometric metal clusters.
  • Study of host-host interactions in these systems and their application in catalysis
  • Study of the contaminant capture properties based on their high stability, water resistance and functionalities
 
Research lines:
  • Porous coordination polymers.Synthesis of porous coordination polymers (PCPs or MOFs). Host-guest chemistry of MOFs. Application of MOFs in catalysis. Application of MOFs in environmental remediation.
