 Abstract metal organic networks, MONS, are composed of metal ions and organic ligands. These networks form a three-dimensional crystal structure with a high surface area and porosity, making them ideal candidates for applications such as gas storage, drug delivery, gas separation, catalysis and sensing. MONS have been studied extensively due to their potential for integration into diverse applications. Molecular descriptors are mathematical measures that describe the properties of a compound. Recently developed descriptors include the modified Zagreb indices, which measure the connectivity of atoms within a molecule. This study calculates and compares these descriptors for two different MONS. The results show that the modified Zagreb indices provide a useful tool for comparing the structural features of MONS.
