Title: Construction of a polyhedral metal-organic framework via a flexible octacarboxylate ligand for gas adsorption and separation. Author: Lin ZJ, Huang YB, Liu TF, Li XY, Cao R. Journal: Inorg Chem; 2013 Mar 18; 52(6):3127-32. PubMed ID: 23469758. Abstract: A flexible octacarboxylate ligand, tetrakis[(3,5-dicarboxyphenyl)oxamethyl]methane (H8X), has been used to construct a highly porous metal-organic framework (In2X)(Me2NH2)2(DMF)9(H2O)5 (1), which is comprised of octahedral and cuboctahedral cages and shows a rare (4,8)-connected scu topology. Gas adsorption studies of N2, H2 on the actived 1 at 77 K reveal a Langmuir surface area of 1707 m(2) g(-1), a BET surface area of 1555 m(2) g(-1), a total pore volume of 0.62 cm(3) g(-1), and a H2 uptake of 1.49 wt % at 1 bar and 3.05 wt % at 16 bar. CO2, CH4, and N2 adsorption studies at 195, 273, 285, and 298 K and also ideal adsorbed solution theory (IAST) calculations demonstrate that 1 has high selectivites of CO2 over CH4 and N2. The resulting framework represents a MOF with the highest gas uptakes and gas selectivities (CO2 over CH4 and N2) constructed by flexible ligands.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
