The intrinsic properties of predesignable topologies and tunable electronic structures, coupled with the increase of electrical conductivity, make two-dimensional metal-organic frameworks (2D MOFs) highly prospective candidates for next-generation electronic/spintronic devices. In this Minireview, we present an outline of the design principles of 2D MOF-based spintronics materials. Then, we highlight the spin-transport properties of 2D MOF-based organic spin valves (OSVs) as a notable achievement in the progress of 2D MOFs for spintronics devices. After that, we discuss the potential for spin manipulation in 2D MOFs with bipolar magnetic semiconductor (BMS) properties as a promising field for future research. Finally, we provide a brief summary and outlook to encourage the development of novel 2D MOFs for spintronics applications.
