Author interpretations and caveats

Paraphrased for this database from the authors’ stated interpretations — never quoted verbatim — and kept separate from reported measurements.

Application RelevanceSupport assessment: High

Complex 1 is the best MB degradation photocatalyst among complexes 1-3, especially in the H2O2-assisted Fenton-like system.

Caveat: Application performance is dye-degradation catalysis, not direct electrical conductivity.

CaveatSupport assessment: High

Although the introduction discusses MOF surface area and cavities generally, this paper does not report BET surface area or pore-size measurements for complexes 1-3 in the provided main/SI documents.

Caveat: Based on reading the supplied main text and SI text layers and rendered pages.

p.442-451 · Main article and SI review

Structure Property LinkSupport assessment: High

Changing auxiliary ligands and CuCl2 ratio yielded pristine Cu MOFs with 1D, 2D and 3D structures, enabling a dimension-dependent comparison.

Caveat: Auxiliary ligands do not remain coordinated in the final crystal structures but guide crystallisation.

Transport MechanismSupport assessment: High

Hydroxyl radicals and photogenerated holes are assigned as the main active species in complex 1 MB degradation.

Caveat: Mechanistic assignment is based on scavenger suppression and EPR signatures rather than direct product quantification.

Transport MechanismSupport assessment: Medium

Complex 1 shows the best charge separation/photoelectric response because its ordered 1D J-aggregate structure broadens light absorption and facilitates carrier transport.

Caveat: No absolute electronic conductivity was reported; EIS and photocurrent are indirect photoelectrochemical proxies.
