    Abstract:
    A new sulfone-functionalized metal-organic framework [Al(OH)(SDBA)]·0.25DMF, denoted CAU-11, was synthesized using a V-shaped linker molecule 4,4'-sulfonyldibenzoic acid (H2SDBA). The crystal structure was solved from synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data. Chains of trans corner-sharing AlO6 octahedra are interconnected by the carboxylate groups to form layers (ABAB stacking). Within the layers, hydrophobic lozenge-shaped pores with a diameter of 6.4 × 7.1 Å(2) are present inducing permanent porosity (aBET = 350 m(2) g(-1) and Vmicro = 0.17 cm(3) g(-1)). With the application of HT-methods (HT = high throughput), the isoreticular carboxylate functionalized compound [Al(OH)(H2DPSTC)]·0.5H2O (CAU-11-COOH) was synthesized using the linker molecule 3,3',4,4'-diphenylsulfonetetracarboxylic dianhydride (DPSDA), which hydrolyzes under the reaction conditions. Due to the additional noncoordinating carboxylic acid groups the pores are hydrophilic. Changing the molar ratio of Al(3+) to linker lead to the discovery of a second new compound [Al2(OH)2(DPSTC)(H2O)2]·0.5H2O (CAU-12). In CAU-12 the linker molecule is fully deprotonated which leads to different connectivity compared to the structure of CAU-11-COOH. Thermal activation of CAU-12 leads to dehydration and transformation of the structure to [Al2(OH)2(DPSTC)]·nH2O (CAU-12-dehy). Coordinated water molecules were removed, and the coordination site is replaced by the previously noncoordinating O atom of the adjacent carboxylate group. The SO2-groups point into the pores resulting in a highly hydrophobic three-dimensional framework. The compounds exhibit high thermal stability in air at least up to 420 °C. Synthesis of CAU-11 can be easily scaled up in very high yields (98%).
