• Enhanced Performance: Enjoy faster execution times and improved scalability.

• Open Science Ready: All dependencies are now open source, making MOFSynth-QM fully transparent and reproducible.

✅ Why Upgrade? Whether you're screening thousands of MOFs or performing high-throughput synth-likelihood predictions, MOFSynth delivers the performance and flexibility modern computational chemists demand.

Try it today — open source, faster, and ready for your next breakthrough.

What is MOFSynth?

MOFSynth is a Python package for MOF synthesizability evaluation, with emphasis on reticular chemistry.

In materials science, especially in the synthesis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a significant portion of time and effort is spent on the experimental process of synthesizing and evaluating the viability of MOFs.

MOFSynth aims to provide a simple and efficient interface for evaluating the synthesizability of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in an experiment-ready format, minimizing the time and labor traditionally required for these experimental preprocessing steps. This allows researchers to focus more on innovative synthesis and experimental validation rather than on preparatory tasks.

⚙️ Installation

It is strongly recommended to perform the installation inside a virtual environment.

python -m venv <venvir_name>
source <venvir_name>/bin/activate

pip install mofsynth_qm
