MOF-5（IL）（Zn4O（BDC）3（BDC=1,4-benzenedicarboxylate） was in situ synthesized by the electrochemical method using a tunable ionic liquid（IL）, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride, as template. The crystallization of distinctly spherical MOF-5（IL） synthsized in ionic liquid by the electrochemical method is attributed to π-π stacking effect, ionic bond, and coordination bond. The analysis results show that the product MOF-5（IL） exhibits better crystallinity and higher thermal stability than MOF-5 generated using the solvothermal method. The cyclic voltammetry reveals that the electrosynthesis reaction is irreversible and controlled by the diffusion.
