Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), emerging as a new type of solid state porous material, have received intensive attention in academia and industry over the last two decades. MOF materials demonstrate not only intriguing structures/topologies, but also a variety of functionalities/applications, i.e., mediating the currentdemanding energy crisis and environmental pollution. We are interested in the design and self-assembly of functional MOF materials to improve carbon dioxide, hydrogen, methane and acetylene storage capabilities, as well as the separation efficiencies toward flue gas and nature gas. Therefore, significant efforts have been devoted to construct a subclass of amide-functionalized metal–organic frameworks (AFMOFs) in the last decade in our research group to target the above-mentioned applications. Due to the intrinsic nature, i.e., flexibility and polarizability of amide groups, the resultant AFMOFs unveil a myriad of graceful structures/topologies in combination with enhanced gas storage and separation properties. Depending on where the amide groups are implanted into the organic backbones, two types of AFMOFs were essentially afforded in our research group. In this review, we first pay some attention to the synthesis and structures of dynamic AFMOFs, in which the amide groups are built between carboxymethyl and phenyl rings, then we discuss the designs, syntheses and constructions of robust AFMOFs by means of several intriguingly topological platforms, i.e., pcu-, agw-, nbo-, rht-, pbz- and txt-MOFs, where the amide groups are built between two phenyl rings. Later, several outstanding AFMOFs are chosen to elucidate their applications for energy gas storage and carbon capture, as well as acetylene safe handling.

在过去的二十年中，作为一种新型的固态多孔材料出现的金属有机框架（MOF）受到了学术界和工业界的广泛关注。MOF的材料不仅展示出有趣的结构/拓扑，还展示了各种功能/应用，例如，介导了当前迫切需要的能源危机和环境污染。我们对功能性MOF材料的设计和自组装感兴趣，以提高二氧化碳，氢气，甲烷和乙炔的储存能力，以及对烟气和天然气的分离效率。因此，在过去的十年中，我们的研究小组投入了大量精力来构建酰胺官能化的金属有机骨架（AFMOF）的子类，以针对上述应用。由于其固有的性质，即 由于酰胺基具有柔韧性和可极化性，因此所得的AFMOF具有多种优美的结构/拓扑结构，并具有增强的气体存储和分离特性。根据酰胺基团植入有机主链的位置不同，我们的研究小组基本上提供了两种类型的AFMOF。在这篇综述中，我们首先关注动态AFMOF的合成和结构，其中酰胺基建在羧甲基和苯环之间，然后我们通过几个有趣的拓扑平台讨论了稳健的AFMOF的设计，合成和构造。 ，即pcu-，agw-，nbo-，rht-，pbz-和txt-MOF，其中酰胺基建在两个苯环之间。之后，
