Abstract: Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs), a new class of ultra-high-porosity materials, have shown remarkable scientific and technological progress over the last three decades. The crystalline structure, ultra-high porosity, and internal surface area of MOFs, along with their potential for tailoring their chemical composition, have contributed to the remarkable progress of these materials in materials science. The following review aims to briefly introduce the reader to the basic concept of the construction of MOFs and the methods for synthesizing and characterizing these materials. Additionally, it aims to introduce the reader to the applications of MOFs across different fields and their future potential. The review also aims to introduce the reader to the future perspectives of the application of MOFs in the development of green technology. The application of MOFs in the development of green technology addresses key challenges associated with their use.
