Abstract
The introduction of heterogeneous components within one single coordination network leads to the multifunctionality of the final material. However, it is hard to precisely control the local distribution of these different components in such a coordination network, especially for different components with identical topological connectivity. In this study, we successfully achieved the ordered assembly of [Mn3(μ3-O)] nodes and [Mn6(μ3-O)2(CH3COO)3] nodes within one pacs coordination network. The resulting new structure (NPU-6) with heterogeneous metal nodes simultaneously inherits the advantages of both parent networks (good thermal stability and high pore volume). The significant effect of the reaction concentration of competing ligand CH3COO- on the mixed assembly of these two nodes in NPU-6 is revealed by a series of control experiments. This method is anticipated to offer a valuable reference for orderly assembling heterogeneous components in coordination networks.

Abstract
We report a crystal-engineering study conducted upon a platform of three mixed-linker square lattice (sql) coordination networks of general formula [Zn(Ria)(bphy)] [bphy = 1,2-bis(pyridin-4-yl)hydrazine, H2Ria = 5-position-substituted isophthalic acid, and R = -Br, -NO2, and -OH; compounds 1-3]. Analysis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction data of 1-2 and the simulated crystal structure of 3 revealed that 1-3 are isomorphous and sustained by bilayers of sql networks linked by hydrogen bonds. Although similar pore shapes and sizes exist in 1-3, distinct isotherm shapes (linear and S shape) and uptakes (2.4, 11.6, and 13.3 wt %, respectively) were observed. Ab initio calculations indicated that the distinct water sorption properties can be attributed to the R groups, which offer a range of hydrophilicity. Calculations indicated that the significantly lower experimental uptake in compound 1 can be attributed to a constricted channel. The calculated water-binding sites provide insights into how adsorbed water molecules bond to the pore walls, with the strongest interactions, water-hydroxyl hydrogen bonding, observed for 3. Overall, this study reveals how pore engineering can result in large variations in water sorption properties in an isomorphous family of rigid porous coordination networks.

Abstract
The stimulus-responsive behavior of coordination networks (CNs), which switch between closed (nonporous) and open (porous) phases, is of interest because of its potential utility in gas storage and separation. Herein, we report two polymorphs of a new square-lattice (sql) topology CN, X-sql-1-Cu, of formula [Cu(Imibz)2]n (HImibz = {[4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenylimino]methyl}benzoic acid), isolated from the as-synthesized CN X-sql-1-Cu-(MeOH)2·2MeOH, which subsequently transformed to a narrow pore solvate, X-sql-1-Cu-A·MeOH, upon mild activation (drying in air or heating at 333 K under nitrogen). X-sql-1-Cu-A·MeOH contains MeOH in cavities, which was removed through exposure to vacuum for 2 h, yielding the nonporous (closed) phase X-sql-1-Cu-A. In contrast, a more dense polymorph, X-sql-1-Cu-B, was obtained by exposing X-sql-1-Cu-(MeOH)2·2MeOH directly to vacuum for 2 h. Gas sorption studies conducted on X-sql-1-Cu-A and X-sql-1-Cu-B revealed different switching behaviors to two open phases (X-sql-1-Cu·CO2 and X-sql-1-Cu·C2H2), with different gate-opening threshold pressures for CO2 at 195 K and C2H2 at 278 K. Coincident CO2 sorption and in situ powder X-ray diffraction studies at 195 K revealed that X-sql-1-Cu-A transformed to X-sql-1-Cu-B after the first sorption cycle and that the CO2-induced switching transformation was thereafter reversible. The results presented herein provide insights into the relationship between two polymorphs of a CN and the effect of polymorphism upon gas sorption properties. To the best of our knowledge, whereas sql networks such as X-sql-1-Cu are widely studied in terms of their structural and sorption properties, this study represents only the second example of an in-depth study of the sorption properties of polymorphic sql networks.

Abstract
Gas or vapor-induced phase transformations in flexible coordination networks (CNs) offer the potential to exceed the performance of their rigid counterparts for separation and storage applications. However, whereas ligand modification has been used to alter the properties of such stimulus-responsive materials, they remain understudied compared with their rigid counterparts. Here, we report that a family of Zn2+ CNs with square lattice (sql) topology, differing only through the substituents attached to a linker, exhibit variable flexibility. Structural and CO2 sorption studies on the sql networks, [Zn(5-Ria)(bphy)]n, ia = isophthalic acid, bphy = 1,2-bis(pyridin-4-yl)hydrazine, R = -CH3, -OCH3, -C(CH3)3, -N=N-Ph, and -N=N-Ph(CH3)2, 2-6, respectively, revealed that the substituent moieties influenced both structural and gas sorption properties. Whereas 2-3 exhibited rigidity, 4, 5, and 6 exhibited reversible transformation from small pore to large pore phases. Overall, the insight into the profound effect of pendent moieties of linkers upon phase transformations in this family of layered CNs should be transferable to other CN classes.

Abstract
Compared to rigid physisorbents, switching coordination networks that reversibly transform between closed (non-porous) and open (porous) phases offer promise for gas/vapour storage and separation owing to their improved working capacity and desirable thermal management properties. We recently introduced a coordination network, X-dmp-1-Co, which exhibits switching enabled by transient porosity. The resulting "open" phases are generated at threshold pressures even though they are conventionally non-porous. Herein, we report that X-dmp-1-Co is the parent member of a family of transiently porous coordination networks [X-dmp-1-M] (M = Co, Zn and Cd) and that each exhibits transient porosity but switching events occur at different threshold pressures for CO2 (0.8, 2.1 and 15 mbar, for Co, Zn and Cd, respectively, at 195 K), H2O (10, 70 and 75% RH, for Co, Zn and Cd, respectively, at 300 K) and CH4 (<2, 10 and 25 bar, for Co, Zn and Cd, respectively, at 298 K). Insight into the phase changes is provided through in situ SCXRD and in situ PXRD. We attribute the tuning of gate-opening pressure to differences and changes in the metal coordination spheres and how they impact dpt ligand rotation. X-dmp-1-Zn and X-dmp-1-Cd join a small number of coordination networks (<10) that exhibit reversible switching for CH4 between 5 and 35 bar, a key requirement for adsorbed natural gas storage.

Abstract
Bifunctional N-donor carboxylate linkers generally afford dia and sql topology coordination networks of general formula ML2 that are based upon the MN2(CO2)2 molecular building block (MBB). Herein, we report on a new N-donor carboxylate linker, β-(3,4-pyridinedicarboximido)propionate (PyImPr), which afforded Cd(PyImPr)2via reaction of PyImPrH with Cd(acetate)2·2H2O. We observed that, depending upon whether Cd(PyImPr)2 was prepared by layering or solvothermal methods, 2D or 3D supramolecular isomers, respectively, of Cd(PyImPr)2 were isolated. Single crystal X-ray diffraction studies revealed that both supramolecular isomers are comprised of the same carboxylate bridged rod building block, RBB. We were interested to determine if the ethylene moiety of PyImPr could enable structural flexibility. Indeed, open-to-closed structural transformations occurred upon solvent removal for both phases, but they were found to be irreversible. A survey of the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) was conducted to analyse the relative frequency of RBB topologies in related ML2 coordination networks in order to provide insight from a crystal engineering perspective.

Abstract
Chiral metal-organic materials (CMOMs), can offer molecular binding sites that mimic the enantioselectivity exhibited by biomolecules and are amenable to systematic fine-tuning of structure and properties. Herein, we report that the reaction of Ni(NO3)2, S-indoline-2-carboxylic acid (S-IDECH), and 4,4'-bipyridine (bipy) afforded a homochiral cationic diamondoid, dia, network, [Ni(S-IDEC)(bipy)(H2O)][NO3], CMOM-5. Composed of rod building blocks (RBBs) cross-linked by bipy linkers, the activated form of CMOM-5 adapted its pore structure to bind four guest molecules, 1-phenyl-1-butanol (1P1B), 4-phenyl-2-butanol (4P2B), 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethanol (MPE), and methyl mandelate (MM), making it an example of a chiral crystalline sponge (CCS). Chiral resolution experiments revealed enantiomeric excess, ee, values of 36.2-93.5%. The structural adaptability of CMOM-5 enabled eight enantiomer@CMOM-5 crystal structures to be determined. The five ordered crystal structures revealed that host-guest hydrogen-bonding interactions are behind the observed enantioselectivity, three of which represent the first crystal structures determined of the ambient liquids R-4P2B, S-4P2B, and R-MPE.

Abstract
In this work, we present the first metal-organic framework (MOF) platform with a self-penetrated double diamondoid (ddi) topology that exhibits switching between closed (nonporous) and open (porous) phases induced by exposure to gases. A crystal engineering strategy, linker ligand substitution, was used to control gas sorption properties for CO2 and C3 gases. Specifically, bimbz (1,4-bis(imidazol-1-yl)benzene) in the coordination network X-ddi-1-Ni ([Ni2(bimbz)2(bdc)2(H2O)]n, H2bdc = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid) was replaced by bimpz (3,6-bis(imidazol-1-yl)pyridazine) in X-ddi-2-Ni ([Ni2(bimpz)2(bdc)2(H2O)]n). In addition, the 1:1 mixed crystal X-ddi-1,2-Ni ([Ni2(bimbz)(bimpz)(bdc)2(H2O)]n) was prepared and studied. All three variants form isostructural closed (β) phases upon activation which each exhibited different reversible properties upon exposure to CO2 at 195 K and C3 gases at 273 K. For CO2, X-ddi-1-Ni revealed incomplete gate-opening, X-ddi-2-Ni exhibited a stepped isotherm with saturation uptake of 3.92 mol·mol-1, and X-ddi-1,2-Ni achieved up to 62% more gas uptake and a distinct isotherm shape vs the parent materials. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) and in situ powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) experiments provided insight into the mechanisms of phase transformation and revealed that the β phases are nonporous with unit cell volumes 39.9, 40.8, and 41.0% lower than the corresponding as-synthesized α phases, X-ddi-1-Ni-α, X-ddi-2-Ni-α, and X-ddi-1,2-Ni-α, respectively. The results presented herein represent the first report of reversible switching between closed and open phases in ddi topology coordination networks and further highlight how ligand substitution can profoundly impact the gas sorption properties of switching sorbents.

Structural Phase Transformations Induced by Guest Molecules in a Nickel-Based 2D Square Lattice Coordination Network. CHEMISTRY OF MATERIALS : A PUBLICATION OF THE AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY 2023; 35:783-791. [PMID: 36711053 PMCID: PMC9878710 DOI: 10.1021/acs.chemmater.2c03662] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2022] [Revised: 12/20/2022] [Indexed: 05/25/2023]
Abstract
Herein, we report the crystal structure and guest binding properties of a new two-dimensional (2D) square lattice (sql) topology coordination network, sql-(azpy)(pdia)-Ni, which is comprised of two linker ligands with diazene (azo) moieties, (E)-1,2-di(pyridin-4-yl)diazene(azpy) and (E)-5-(phenyldiazenyl)isophthallate(pdia). sql-(azpy)(pdia)-Ni underwent guest-induced switching between a closed (nonporous) β phase and several open (porous) α phases, but unlike the clay-like layer expansion to distinct phases previously reported in switching sql networks, a continuum of phases was formed. In effect, sql-(azpy)(pdia)-Ni exhibited elastic-like properties induced by adaptive guest binding. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) studies of the α phases revealed that the structural transformations were enabled by the pendant phenyldiazenyl moiety on the pdia2- ligand. This moiety functioned as a type of hinge to enable parallel slippage of layers and interlayer expansion for the following guests: N,N-dimethylformamide, water, dichloromethane, para-xylene, and ethylbenzene. The slippage angle (interplanar distances) ranged from 54.133° (4.442 Å) in the β phase to 69.497° (5.492 Å) in the ethylbenzene-included phase. Insight into the accompanying phase transformations was also gained from variable temperature powder XRD studies. Dynamic water vapor sorption studies revealed a stepped isotherm with little hysteresis that was reversible for at least 100 cycles. The isotherm step occurred at ca. 50% relative humidity (RH), the optimal RH value for humidity control.

Abstract
The reaction of alkaline earth pentacyanocyclopentadienides with 4,4′-bipyridine in MeOH yielded undefined products of composition [M(PCC)2(Bipy)x(MeOH)y(H2O)z] (PCC = [C5(CN)5]−). Recrystallization from MeOH, EtOH, or n-BuOH gave crystals of [Mg(H2O)4(4,4′-bipy)2](PCC)2∙2BuOH (1), [Ca(H2O)4(4,4′-bipy)2](PCC)2∙(4,4′-bipy) (2), [Sr(MeOH)8](PCC)2∙3(4,4′-bipy) (3), [Sr2(H2O)4(BuOH)4(PCC)2(µ-PCC)2 (µ-4,4′-bipy)]∙4 (4,4′-bipy)∙0.29 (BuOH) (4), [Ba3(H2O)4(EtOH)10 (PCC)2(µ-PCC)2 (µ-4,4′-bipy)2(4,4′-bipy)](PCC)2 ∙3(4,4′-bipy)∙2EtOH∙H2O (5) and [Ba4(H2O)8(BuOH)6 (PCC)2(µ-PCC)6 (4,4′-bipy)6]∙3(4,4′-bipy) (6). 4,4′-Bipyridine functions either as monodentate or bidentate ligand and is present in all cases except for 2 as lattice guest. While in compounds 1 and 2 only water is present as O-donor, the alcohol coordinates in the other compounds either exclusively (3) or together with water (4–6). The pentacyanocyclopentadienide does not coordinate in 1–3, but is present as mono-, bi-, or tridentate ligand in 4–6. In all compounds, a more or less complicated interplay of hydrogen bridges and π–π stacking is observed.

Abstract
Hybrid ultramicroporous materials (HUMs) are porous coordination networks composed of combinations of organic and inorganic linker ligands with a pore diameter of <7 Å. Despite their benchmark gas sorption selectivity for several industrially relevant gas separations and their inherent modularity, the structural and compositional diversity of HUMs remains underexplored. In this contribution, we report a family of six HUMs (SIFSIX-22-Zn, TIFSIX-6-Zn, SNFSIX-2-Zn, GEFSIX-4-Zn, ZRFSIX-3-Zn, and TAFSEVEN-1-Zn) based on Zn metal centers and the tetratopic N-donor organic ligand tetra(4-pyridyl)benzene (tepb). The incorporation of fluorinated inorganic pillars (SiF6 2-, TiF6 2-, SnF6 2-, GeF6 2-, ZrF6 2-, and TaF7 2-, respectively) resulted in (4,6)-connected fsc topology as verified using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Pure-component gas sorption studies with N2, CO2, C2H2, C2H4, and C2H6 revealed that the large voids and narrow pore windows common to all six HUMs can be leveraged to afford high C2H2 uptakes while retaining high ideal adsorbed solution theory (IAST) selectivities for industrially relevant gas mixtures: >10 for 1:99 C2H2/C2H4 and >5 for 1:1 C2H2/CO2. The approach taken, systematic variation of pillars with retention of structure, enables differences in selectivity to be attributed directly to the choice of the inorganic pillar. This study introduces fsc topology HUMs as a modular platform that is amenable to fine-tuning of structure and properties.

Abstract
That physisorbents can reduce the energy footprint of water vapor capture and release has attracted interest because of potential applications such as moisture harvesting, dehumidification, and heat pumps. In this context, sorbents exhibiting an S-shaped single-step water sorption isotherm are desirable, most of which are structurally rigid sorbents that undergo pore-filling at low relative humidity (RH), ideally below 30% RH. Here, we report that a new flexible one-dimensional (1D) coordination network, [Cu(HQS)(TMBP)] (H2HQS = 8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfonic acid and TMBP = 4,4'-trimethylenedipyridine), exhibits at least five phases: two as-synthesized open phases, α ⊃ H2O and β ⊃ MeOH; an activated closed phase (γ); CO2 (δ ⊃ CO2) and C2H2 (ϵ ⊃ C2H2) loaded phases. The γ phase underwent a reversible structural transformation to α ⊃ H2O with a stepped sorption profile (Type F-IV) when exposed to water vapor at <30% RH at 300 K. The hydrolytic stability of [Cu(HQS)(TMBP)] was confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) after immersion in boiling water for 6 months. Temperature-humidity swing cycling measurements demonstrated that working capacity is retained for >100 cycles and only mild heating (<323 K) is required for regeneration. Unexpectedly, the kinetics of loading and unloading of [Cu(HQS)(TMBP)] compares favorably with well-studied rigid water sorbents such as Al-fumarate, MOF-303, and CAU-10-H. Furthermore, a polymer composite of [Cu(HQS)(TMBP)] was prepared and its water sorption retained its stepped profile and uptake capacity over multiple cycles.

Abstract
Thin films of Co-MOF-74 and Ni-MOF-74 were synthesized on Au-coated quartz crystal microbalance substrates by a vapor-assisted conversion (VAC) method that precludes the need for activation via postsynthetic solvent exchange. All thin films were structurally characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, reflection-absorption infrared spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images reveal that the Ni-MOF-74 films exists as a dense base layer with hemispherical protrusions on the surface. In contrast, the scanning electron microscopy images of the Co-MOF-74 thin films show a rough surface with spherical deposits. The thin film morphologies were different than the powders resulting from the bulk synthesis. Gravimetric vapor-phase adsorption measurements for xylene isomers and ethylbenzene within Co-MOF-74 and Ni-MOF-74 thin films were conducted, and the results were compared with those reported for the corresponding bulk powders. Despite different morphologies, the saturation capacities of Ni-MOF-74 and Co-MOF-74 thin films were found to be nearly equivalent to those reported for the bulk powders. The results demonstrate that the VAC method can produce MOF-74 thin films that retain the intrinsic properties that are observed in bulk powders.

Abstract
The discovery of high-performance adsorbents for highly efficient separation of xenon from krypton is an important but challenging task in the chemical industry due to their similar size and inert spherical nature. Herein, we report two robust and radiation-resistant Hofmann-type MOFs, Co(pyz)[Ni(CN)4] and Co(pyz)[Pd(CN)4] (termed as ZJU-74a-Ni and ZJU-74a-Pd), featuring oppositely adjacent open metal sites and perfect pore sizes (4.1 and 3.8 Å) comparable to the kinetic diameter of xenon (4.047 Å), affording the benchmark binding affinity for polarizable Xe gas. These materials thus exhibit both record-high Xe uptake capacities (89.3 and 98.4 cm3 cm-3 at 296 K and 0.2 bar) and Xe/Kr selectivities (74.1 and 103.4) at ambient conditions, all of which are the highest among all the state-of-the-art materials reported so far. The locations of Xe molecules within ZJU-74a-Ni have been visualized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies, in which two oppositely adjacent metal centers combined with the right aperture size can construct a unique sandwich-like binding site to offer unprecedented and ultrastrong Ni2+-Xe-Ni2+ interactions with xenon, thus leading to the record Xe capture capacity and selectivity. The excellent separation capacity of ZJU-74a-Pd was verified by breakthrough experiments for Xe/Kr gas mixtures, providing both unprecedentedly high xenon uptake capacity (4.63 mmol cm-3) and krypton productivity (214 cm3 g-1).

Abstract
Hybrid ultramicroporous materials, HUMs, are comprised of metal cations linked by combinations of inorganic and organic ligands. Their modular nature makes them amenable to crystal engineering studies, which have thus far afforded four HUM platforms (as classified by the inorganic linkers). HUMs are of practical interest because of their benchmark gas separation performance for several industrial gas mixtures. We report herein design and gram‐scale synthesis of the prototypal sulfate‐linked HUM, the fsc topology coordination network ([Zn(tepb)(SO4)]n), SOFOUR‐1‐Zn, tepb=(tetra(4‐pyridyl)benzene). Alignment of the sulfate anions enables strong binding to C2H2 via O⋅⋅⋅HC interactions but weak CO2 binding, affording a new benchmark for the difference between C2H2 and CO2 heats of sorption at low loading (ΔQst=24 kJ mol−1). Dynamic column breakthrough studies afforded fuel‐grade C2H2 from trace (1 : 99) or 1 : 1 C2H2/CO2 mixtures, outperforming its SiF62− analogue, SIFSIX‐22‐Zn.

Abstract
One-step adsorptive purification of ethylene (C2H4) from four-component gas mixtures comprising acetylene (C2H2), ethylene (C2H4), ethane (C2H6) and carbon dioxide (CO2) is an unmet challenge in the area of commodity purification. Herein, we report that the ultramicroporous sorbent Zn-atz-oba (H2oba = 4,4-dicarboxyl diphenyl ether; Hatz = 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole) enables selective adsorption of C2H2, C2H6 and CO2 over C2H4 thanks to the binding sites that lie in its undulating pores. Molecular simulations provide insight into the binding sites in Zn-atz-oba that are responsible for coadsorption of C2H2, C2H6 and CO2 over C2H4. Dynamic breakthrough experiments demonstrate that the selective binding exhibited by Zn-atz-oba can produce polymer-grade purity (>99.95%) C2H4 from binary (1:1 for C2H4/C2H6), ternary (1:1:1 for C2H2/C2H4/C2H6) and quaternary (1:1:1:1 for C2H2/C2H4/C2H6/CO2) gas mixtures in a single step.

Abstract
This paper describes the content of my "Concluding remarks" talk at the Faraday Discussion meeting on "MOFs for energy and the environment" (online, 23-25 June 2021). The panel consisted of sessions on the design of MOFs and MOF hybrids (synthetic chemistry), their applications (e.g., capture, storage, separation, electrical devices, photocatalysis), advanced characterization (e.g., transmission electron microscopy, solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance), theory and modeling, and commercialization. MOF chemistry is undergoing a significant evolution from simply network chemistry to the chemistry of synergistic integration with heterogeneous materials involving other disciplines (we call this the fourth generation type). As reflected in the papers of the invited speakers and discussions with the participants, the present and future of this field will be described in detail.

Abstract
Coordination networks (CNs) are a class of (usually) crystalline solids typically comprised of metal ions or cluster nodes linked into 2 or 3 dimensions by organic and/or inorganic linker ligands. Whereas CNs tend to exhibit rigid structures and permanent porosity as exemplified by most metal-organic frameworks, MOFs, there exists a small but growing class of CNs that can undergo extreme, reversible structural transformation(s) when exposed to gases, vapours or liquids. These "soft" or "stimuli-responsive" CNs were introduced two decades ago and are attracting increasing attention thanks to two features: the amenability of CNs to design from first principles, thereby enabling crystal engineering of families of related CNs; and the potential utility of soft CNs for adsorptive storage and separation. A small but growing subset of soft CNs exhibit reversible phase transformations between nonporous (closed) and porous (open) structures. These "switching CNs" are distinguished by stepped sorption isotherms coincident with phase transformation and, perhaps counterintuitively, they can exhibit benchmark properties with respect to working capacity (storage) and selectivity (separation). This review addresses fundamental and applied aspects of switching CNs through surveying their sorption properties, analysing the structural transformations that enable switching, discussing structure-function relationships and presenting design principles for crystal engineering of the next generation of switching CNs.
