Here we show a time-programmed and autonomous synthesis of zeolitic imidazole framework-8 (ZIF-8) using a methylene glycol-sulfite clock reaction. The induction period of the driving clock reaction, thus, the appearance of the ZIF-8 can be adjusted by the initial concentration of one reagent of the chemical clock. The autonomously synthesized ZIF-8 showed excellent morphology and crystallinity.
