Metal organic frameworks (MOF) contain inorganic and organic network that can easily functionalized to get tuneable properties. MOFs as highly porous crystalline materials constructed by coordination bonds between metal ions/cluster and organic ligands, have developed very fast due to not only their intriguing structures but also the potential application, such as gas separation, storage and sensing. They have great potential as adsorbent/catalysts due to their extremely large surface area, well-ordered porous structures, and diverse means available for functionalization. MOF-5 consists of four [Zn4O](6+) clusters in octahedral subunit that are connected to each other by terephthalate or benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate (BDC) groups, to form a porous cubic framework. in the work, we have synthesis Ni-doped MOF-5 by solvothermal method according to the literature. The Ni-MOF-5 was formed with cubic structure but changing the reaction conditions resulted to novel hexagonal structure. The characterization was performed by FTIR, XRD and SEM methods.
