Description

1,2,4,5-Tetrakis(4-Carboxyphenyl)Benzene is a high-purity, multi-functional organic building block characterized by its rigid, symmetrical structure with four peripheral carboxylic acid groups. This compound is essential for the synthesis of advanced materials, particularly Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) and Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs), where it serves as a critical organic linker. It is primarily needed by researchers and manufacturers in the fields of materials science, gas storage, heterogeneous catalysis, and chemical sensing.

Application

• MOF/COF Synthesis: A key organic linker for constructing porous, crystalline frameworks with high surface area and tunable pore sizes.
• Gas Storage & Separation: Used in frameworks designed for the adsorption and selective separation of gases like hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and methane.
• Heterogeneous Catalysis: Provides stable, functional sites within porous frameworks for catalytic applications.
• Chemical Sensors: Enables the development of sensitive frameworks for the detection of specific analytes or environmental pollutants.
• Advanced Polymers: Serves as a monomer or cross-linking agent for creating high-performance, heat-resistant polymeric materials.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Used in the research and development of complex drug molecules and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
