Aluminosilicate zeolites such as UTD-1 (structure shown) belong to a family of nanoporous inorganic materials that find utility in catalysis, separation, and ion exchange. During the last decade, the rate of discovery of new open-framework materials based, for example, on phosphates, sulfides, halides, nitrides, and coordination compounds has increased dramatically. The synthesis, structures, and properties of this remarkable class of materials are reviewed.
