Abstract

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as a subclass of coordination polymers, have attracted wide interest in various field. Herein, we focus on its application in chromatographic separation due to its excellent physical and chemical properties such as large surface area, high porosity, uniform pore sizes and structural diversity. In 2014, a review was published to summarize the most significant advances in MOFs, and their applications in separation science. The present review was an extensive update on applications of MOFs in chromatographic separation from 2014 to the present such as high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), capillary electrochromatography (CEC), nano-liquid chromatography (nano-LC), and gas chromatography (GC). Besides, the typical applications of MOFs in solid-phase microextraction (SPME) were also discussed. Except the presentation of experimental data, the limitations and prospects were also summarized in this review, which can offer an outlook and reference on further study of applications of MOFs.
