The research team headed by Prof. Li Dan of JNU's College of Chemistry and Materials Science has published an article in an international journal of chemical science. The paper, titled “Chiroptical Activity from an Achiral Biological Metal-Organic Framework,” was published on Aug. 24 as the cover paper in JACS, the Journal of the American Chemical Society (IF= 14.357).

(Cover paper)

Li's team researches host-guest chemistry and supermolecular luminescence control strategy of biomineral-inspired growth and processing of metal-organic frameworks (BioMOF) (Angew.Chem. Int. Ed. 2015, 54, 10454; Chem. Commun. 2017, 53, 7917; Coord. Chem. Rev.2018, DOI: 10.1016/j.ccr.2017.12.003). Its work was supported and funded by a key project of the National Natural Science Foundation.

This team worked with assistance from JNU and cooperated with Shantou University, the University of Nottingham Malaysia Campus, the State Key Laboratory of Structural Chemistry, and the Chinese Academy of Sciences' Fujian Institute of Research on the Structure of Matter.
