MOF-5 with a Zn(ii) cluster and terephthalic acid is a distinctive porous material among the metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), with unique physical, chemical and mechanical properties. MOF-5 based composites possess ample applications in modern chemistry. Huge surface area, suitable pore dimensions and scope of tunability make MOF-5 noteworthy in advanced materials. The extensive features of MOF-5 provided an opportunity for researchers to explore atomic/molecular scale materials. Various MOF-5 based composites have been designed with revamped properties appropriate to the application by altering and fabricating MOF-5 in situ or using a post-synthetic approach. Surface modification via the dispersion and impregnation of active substances into the pores of MOF-5 enhances its applicability. The boundless topologies and morphologies of MOF-5 combined with other chemical entities has provided opportunities in various fields, including catalysis, gas storage and sensors. The present review illuminates the leading role of MOF-5 and its composites in contemporary applications based on the current literature in heterogeneous catalysis, H2 and CO2 storage and sensors.
