Abstract

Thin films of MOFs grown on solid substrates offer a huge potential with regard to tailoring the properties of a surface, in particular if used in connection with post-synthesis modification (PSM). Here, we report on the PSM of surface-supported crystalline MOFs, with target molecules using an amine-based coupling strategy.
