The growth of crystalline particles was controlled by removing the particles at different reaction times to interrupt the growth at the desired size. The nano and microscale particles show better catalytic conversions and selectivities in the hydroxylation of phenols than the bulk crystals. Keywords self-assembly coordination polymer catalysis hydroxylation Introduction Within the large family of materials science nano- and microscale materials are of particular interest for their potential applications in many areas 1-10 . In many cases these materials exhibit an increase of macroscopic properties due to the microscopic size effect and to the surface effect 11-13 . However to date the vast majority of work on nano- or micro-materials has concentrated on purely inorganic compounds or clusters 14-16 . Recently along with the development of metal-organic framework materials 17 18 a new class of functionalized organic-inorganic hydrid nanomaterial commonly called microscale coordination polymers MCPs 19-21 has received great attention. These materials exhibit a higher level of structural tailorability with size- and morphology-dependent properties. These structures can also exhibit microporosity tunable fluorescence magnetic susceptibility and unusual catalytic activity and selectivity. Thus far a variety of .
