Build metal-organic frameworks from their parts
MOF++ holds the pieces reticular chemistry works with — net topologies, building blocks, framework structures, and the MOF-FF parameters that let you simulate them. Search and download need no account.
Find data
-
Search topologies
By name, coordination number, spacegroup, transitivity, or by coordination sequence and vertex symbol.
3077 nets
-
Browse building blocks
Organic and inorganic connectors and nodes, with connectivity and sum formula.
5 building blocks
-
Look up frameworks
Known and hypothetical frameworks, their underlying net, and structures at several levels of theory.
2 frameworks
-
Assign a force field
MOF-FF parameters, reference systems and fragments — addressable by fragment and atom type.
1 force fields
Do something with it
-
Generate a hypothetical framework
The reverse topological approach: pick a net, choose building blocks, let the workspace assemble and scale the structure.

Everything here is citable
Every record has a permanent URI that resolves to this page for a person
and to JSON for a machine — the same address, negotiated by
Accept or by adding .json. Each carries an
explicit licence, and each page gives you a citation block to paste.
