Abstract Coordination chemistry, which is the science concerned with the interactions of organic ligands with metal centers, is classical but still very attractive approach to construct novel functional materials. Rational and creative design of organic and metal building blocks successfully affords a variety of coordination polymers or metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) that have practical usefulness as well as scientific significance. Recently, flexible MOFs have attracted great attention because they show distinctive properties that cannot be achieved with rigid MOFs and other porous inorganic materials. In this talk, we will present synthetic strategies for flexible MOFs and their interesting properties. Especially, responsive MOFs upon external stimuli such as light irradiation, gas adsorption/desorption and specific organic molecules sensing will be introduced.
