How to search among MOFs

Deal all,
I need the structure of Fe-MIL-101. Could you please instruct me how to find it ?

We don’t have identifier labels for structures, but they do have chemical formulae. Previously, there was no simple way to query by chemical formula, but I’ve gone ahead and added that functionality.

If you go to the Nanoporous Explorer app, select MOFs as the sorbent material, type in “Fe” (no quotes) in the “Formula (Regex)” input field in the sidebar, and click “Explore Nanoporous Materials”, you should see 144 Fe-containing MOFs among the >500,000 in our database. The chemical formula input field takes input in the form of a so-called regular expression, where elements are ordered alphabetically in the formula.

Hopefully this will help you narrow down your search to see if we have the structure you seek.
