@Saeideh Hosseini Thank you for your answer, but most of these articles use 2-methylimidazole (2-mim) instead of 1,2-dimethylimidazole (1,2-Dmim)

Hello

these are belonging to imidazole, did you synthesized the ZIF-8 Nanoparticles based these articles or similar them?

In my opinion, you should first read similar articles in this field and use the methods and results obtained from them to do your work.

2-methylimidazole (2-mim) and 1,2-dimethylimidazole (1,2-Dmim)

Saeideh Hosseini Thank you for your answer, I am using 1,2-dimethylimidazole (1,2-Dmim), but the most articles used 2-methylimidazole, and still a few reporting use 1,2-dimethylimidazole (1,2-Dmim) as the starting material to synthesize ZIF-8
