One of the most widely studied MOFs is HKUST-1. This MOF consists of copper (II) centers coordinated with benzene tricarboxylic acid (BTC) linkers. It has been previously shown that anodic dissolution can be used to deposit a Cu film on indium tin oxide (ITO) substrates, where a MOF can then be grown. HKUST-1 will be synthesized in two steps via electrochemical deposition of Cu onto the ITO surface, and electrochemical dissolution of the plated Cu to react with the BTC linker. This will all be done in a three-electrode system. This MOF will be characterized with respect to its morphology via scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and its crystallinity via powder x-ray diffraction (PXRD).  Applications for the synthesized MOF film will include the adsorption of methylene blue from water.
