Abstract Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), which are constructed from the assembly of metal ions or metal clusters with organic linkers, represent a new class of crystalline porous materials with potential applications in the fields of gas storage and separation, heterogeneous catalysis and chemical sensing. The development of reliable and reproducible methods to fabricate MOFs with high stability and mesopore characters remains a great challenge to meet many future applications for separation, large molecules adsorption, drug delivery and size-selective catalysis and so on. In this tutorial review, we are mainly focusing on the recent developments in the fabrication of hierarchically structured MOFs based on nanoscience techniques.
