Sutton AL, Mardel JI, Hill MR. Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) As Hydrogen Storage Materials At Near-Ambient Temperature. Chemistry 2024; 30:e202400717.

Abstract
Hydrogen may play a critical role in our efforts to de-carbonize by 2050. However, there remain technical challenges in the storage and transport of hydrogen. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have shown significant promise for hydrogen storage at cryogenic temperatures. A material that can meet the US department of energy (DOE) ultimate goal of 6.5 wt. % for gravimetric performance and 50 g/L for volumetric storage at near-ambient temperatures would unlock hydrogen as a future fuel source for on-board applications. Metal-organic frameworks typically have low heat of adsorptions (i. e. 4-7 kJ/mol), whereas for storing significant quantities of hydrogen at near-ambient temperatures, 15-25 kJ/mol is likely required. In this review we explore the current methods used (i. e., open-metal sites, alkali dopants and hydrogen spillover) for promoting strong adsorption within MOFs. Further we discuss MOF-based materials with respect to the technical aspects of deliverable capacity, kinetics and stability.

Abstract
Global energy consumption is expected to reach 911 BTU by the end of 2050 as a result of rapid urbanization and industrialization. Hydrogen is increasingly recognized as a clean and reliable energy vector for decarbonization and defossilization across various sectors. Projections indicate a significant rise in global demand for hydrogen, underscoring the need for sustainable production, efficient storage, and utilization. In this state-of-the-art review, we explore hydrogen production methods, compare their environmental impacts through life cycle analysis, delve into geological storage options, and discuss hydrogen's potential as a future transportation fuel. Combining electrolysis to make hydrogen and storing it in porous underground materials like salt caverns and geological reservoirs looks like a good way to balance out the variable supply of renewable energy and meet the demand at peak times. Hydrogen is a key component of our sustainable economy, and this article gives a broad overview of the process from production to consumption, touching on technical, economic, and environmental concerns along the way. We have made an attempt in this paper to compile different methods for the production of hydrogen and its storage, the challenges faced by current methods in the manufacturing of hydrogen gas, and the role of hydrogen in the future. This review paper will serve as a very good reference for hydrogen system engineering applications. The paper concludes with some suggestions for future research to help improve the technological efficiency of certain production methods, all with the goal of scaling up the hydrogen economy.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as highly promising adsorbents for removing heavy metals from wastewater due to their tunable structures, high surface areas, and exceptional adsorption capacities. This review meticulously examines and summarizes recent advancements in producing and utilizing MOF-based adsorbents for sequestering heavy metal ions from water. It begins by outlining and contrasting commonly employed methods for synthesizing MOFs, such as solvothermal, microwave, electrochemical, ultrasonic, and mechanochemical. Rather than delving into the specifics of adsorption process parameters, the focus shifts to analyzing the adsorption capabilities and underlying mechanisms against critical metal(loid) ions like chromium, arsenic, lead, cadmium, and mercury under various environmental conditions. Additionally, this article discusses strategies to optimize MOF performance, scale-up production, and address environmental implications. The comprehensive review aims to enhance the understanding of MOF-based adsorption for heavy metal remediation and stimulate further research in this critical field. In brief, this review article presents a comprehensive overview of the contemporary information on MOFs as an effective adsorbent and the challenges being faced by these adsorbents for heavy metal mitigation (including stability, cost, environmental issues, and optimization), targeting to develop a vital reference for future MOF research.

Chem Sci 2024; 15:5294-5302. [PMID: 38577379 PMCID: PMC10988610 DOI: 10.1039/d3sc05612k] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2023] [Accepted: 03/05/2024] [Indexed: 04/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) incorporating open metal sites (OMS) have been identified as promising sorbents for many societally relevant-adsorption applications including CO2 capture, natural gas purification and H2 storage. This has been ascribed to strong specific interactions between OMS and the guest molecules that enable the MOF to achieve an effective capture even under low gas pressure conditions. In particular, the presence of OMS in MOFs was demonstrated to substantially boost the H2 binding energy for achieving high adsorbed hydrogen densities and large usable hydrogen capacities. So far, there is a critical bottleneck to computationally attain a full understanding of the thermodynamics and dynamics of H2 in this sub-class of MOFs since the generic classical force fields (FFs) are known to fail to accurately describe the interactions between OMS and any guest molecules, in particular H2. This clearly hampers the computational-assisted identification of MOFs containing OMS for a target adsorption-related application since the standard high-throughput screening approach based on these generic FFs is not applicable. Therefore, there is a need to derive novel FFs to achieve accurate and effective evaluation of MOFs for H2 adsorption. On this path, as a proof-of-concept, the soc-MOF-1d containing OMS, previously envisaged as a potential platform for H2 adsorption, was selected as a benchmark material and a machine learning potential (MLP) was derived for the Al-soc-MOF-1d from a dataset initially generated by ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations. This MLP was further implemented in MD simulations to explore the H2 binding modes as well as the temperature dependence distribution of H2 in the MOF pores from 10 K to 80 K. MLP-Grand Canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations were then performed to predict the H2 sorption isotherm of Al-soc-MOF-1d at 77 K that was further confirmed using sorption data we collected on this sample. As a further step, MLP-based molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were conducted to anticipate the kinetics of H2 in this MOF. This work delivers the first MLP able to describe accurately the interactions between the challenging H2 guest molecule and MOFs containing OMS. This innovative strategy applied to one of the most complex molecules owing to its highly polarizable nature, paves the way towards a more systematic accurate and efficient in silico assessment of MOFs containing OMS for H2 adsorption and beyond to the low-pressure capture of diverse molecules.

Abstract
Respecting the basic need of clean and safe water on earth for every individual, it is necessary to take auspicious steps for waste-water treatment. Recently, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are considered as promising material because of their intrinsic features including the porosity and high surface area. Further, structural tunability of MOFs by following the principles of reticular chemistry, the MOFs can be functionalized for the high adsorption performance as well as adsorptive removal of target materials. However, there are still some major concerns associated with MOFs limiting their commercialization as promising adsorbents for waste-water treatment. The cost, toxicity and regenerability are the major issues to be addressed for MOFs to get insightful results. In this article, we have concise the current strategies to enhance the adsorption capacity of MOFs during the water-treatment for the removal of toxic dyes, pharmaceuticals, and heavy metals. Further, we have also discussed the role of metallic nodes, linkers and associated functional groups for effective removal of toxic water pollutants. In addition to conformist overview, we have critically analyzed the MOFs as adsorbents in terms of toxicity, cost and regenerability. These factors are utmost important to address before commercialization of MOFs as adsorbents for water-treatment. Finally, some future perspectives are discussed to give directions for potential research.

Abstract
We report the first experimental and theoretical evaluation of the thermodynamic driving force for the reaction of metal-organic framework (MOF) materials with carbon dioxide, leading to a metal-organic carbonate phase. Carbonation upon exposure of MOFs to CO2 is a significant concern for the design and deployment of such materials in carbon storage technologies, and this work shows that the formation of a carbonate material from the popular SOD-topology framework material ZIF-8, as well as its dense-packed dia-topology polymorph, is significantly exothermic. With knowledge of the crystal structure of the starting and final phases in the carbonation reaction, we have also identified periodic density functional theory approaches that most closely reproduce the measured reaction enthalpies. This development now permits the use of advanced theoretical calculations to calculate the driving forces behind the carbonation of zeolitic imidazolate frameworks with reasonable accuracy.

Abstract
Coordination polymers with external stimuli-responsive structural transformation acquired paramount importance in the advanced material research field due to their eye-catching application to deal with the existing challenging issue, and Co(II) metal complex with d7 electronic configuration is a renowned candidate for kinetic accountability and has the potentiality of structural transformation. Bearing these factors in mind, here, a Co(II) congener of a previously reported high hydrogen-adsorbing Cu(II)-based coordination polymer (CP), {[Cu(4-bpe)(2-ntp)]}n [where 2-ntp2- = 2-nitroterephthalate and 4-bpe = 1,2-bis-(4-pyridyl)ethane], has been synthesized to study the metal change impact on hydrogen adsorption and solvent-induced structural transformation with their impact on hydrogen uptake. This modified framework has a 2D + 2D → 3D inclined polycatenated framework as comparable to our previously published Cu(II) framework. Here, on the variation of different solvents, the labile Co(II)-containing framework exhibits a structural change through single-crystal to single-crystal (SC-SC) structural transformation and results in three new framework structures. All four frameworks are structurally characterized by elemental analysis, IR, PXRD, TGA, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The desolvated parent framework with exposed metal centers exhibits excellent results of H2 adsorption of 1.3 wt % (145 cc/g) at 77 K and pressure of 1 bar with structural sustainability and CO2 uptake of 130 cc/g at 195 K and 1 bar. For the other three solvent-mediated structural derivatives, H2 and CO2 adsorption have been studied, and the results are correlated with their structure.

Abstract
Smart metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are constructed by introducing stimuli-responsive functional groups into MOF platforms. Through membrane systems containing smart MOFs, external field-modulated gas transport can be achieved, which finds potential applications in chemical engineering. In this work, we design a series of Mg-MOF-74-III-based frameworks functionalized by arylazopyrazole groups. Methyleneamine chains with various lengths are attached to the photoresponsive azopyrazole moiety. Molecular dynamics simulations show that CO2 diffusion can be remarkably changed by controlling the cis-to-trans isomerization of the functional unit due to the tunable adsorbate-adsorbent and adsorbate-adsorbate interactions of the two states. With the optimal length of the functional chain, the spatial hindrance and adsorbate-adsorbent interaction exhibit a synergetic effect to maximize the stimuli-responsive kinetic separation of N2 over CO2. This work provides a promising strategy for elevating smart MOFs' potential in gas separation.

Abstract
![]()
Quantum embedding schemes have the
potential to significantly reduce
the computational cost of first-principles calculations while maintaining
accuracy, particularly for calculations of electronic excitations
in complex systems. In this work, I combine time-dependent embedded
mean field theory (TD-EMFT) with linear-scaling density functional
theory and implicit solvation models, extending previous work within
the ONETEP code. This provides a way to perform multilevel calculations
of electronic excitations on very large systems, where long-range
environmental effects, both quantum and classical in nature, are important.
I demonstrate the power of this method by performing simulations on
a variety of systems, including a molecular dimer, a chromophore in
solution, and a doped molecular crystal. This work paves the way for
high accuracy calculations to be performed on large-scale systems
that were previously beyond the reach of quantum embedding schemes.

Abstract
With the rapid growth in demand for effective and renewable energy, the hydrogen era has begun. To meet commercial requirements, efficient hydrogen storage techniques are required. So far, four techniques have been suggested for hydrogen storage: compressed storage, hydrogen liquefaction, chemical absorption, and physical adsorption. Currently, high-pressure compressed tanks are used in the industry; however, certain limitations such as high costs, safety concerns, undesirable amounts of occupied space, and low storage capacities are still challenges. Physical hydrogen adsorption is one of the most promising techniques; it uses porous adsorbents, which have material benefits such as low costs, high storage densities, and fast charging–discharging kinetics. During adsorption on material surfaces, hydrogen molecules weakly adsorb at the surface of adsorbents via long-range dispersion forces. The largest challenge in the hydrogen era is the development of progressive materials for efficient hydrogen storage. In designing efficient adsorbents, understanding interfacial interactions between hydrogen molecules and porous material surfaces is important. In this review, we briefly summarize a hydrogen storage technique based on US DOE classifications and examine hydrogen storage targets for feasible commercialization. We also address recent trends in the development of hydrogen storage materials. Lastly, we propose spillover mechanisms for efficient hydrogen storage using solid-state adsorbents.

Abstract
Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted considerable attention in recent years due to their use in a wide range of environmental, industrial and biomedical applications. The employment of benzophenone-4,4'-dicarboxylic acid (bphdcH2) in MOF chemistry provided access to the 3D mixed metal MOFs [CoNa2(bphdc)2(DMF)2]n (NUIG2) and [ZnK2(bphdc)2(DMF)2]n (NUIG3), and the 2D homometallic MOF [Co2(OH)(bphdcH)2(DMF)2(H2O)2]n(OH)·DMF (1·DMF). 1·DMF is based on a dinuclear SBU and consists of interpenetrating networks with an sql topology. Dc magnetic susceptibility studies were carried out in 1·DMF and revealed the presence of weak antiferomagnetic exchange interactions between the metal centres. NUIG2 and NUIG3 are structural analogues of [ZnNa2(bphdc)2(DMF)2]n (NUIG1), which has shown an exceptionally high encapsulation for ibuprophen (Ibu), NO and metal ions. Both NUIG2 and NUIG3 display high metal ion (CoII, NiII, CuII) adsorption capacity, comparable to that of NUIG1, with NUIG2 exhibiting good performance in Ibu uptake (780 mg Ibu per g NUIG2). Monte Carlo simulations were conducted in NUIG1 in order to assess its adsorption capacity for other guest molecules, and revealed that it possesses an outstanding CO2 uptake at ambient pressure, which is larger than that of the previously reported best functioning species (104 vs. 100 cm3 (stp) per cm3). Furthermore, NUIG1 exhibits high selectivity for CO2 over CH4.

Abstract
2,3-Dimethylindole (2,3-DMID), a candidate with a hydrogen storage capacity of 5.23 wt%, was studied as a new liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC) in detail in this report. Hydrogenation of 2,3-DMID was conducted over 5 wt% Ru/Al2O3 by investigating the influences of temperature and hydrogen pressure. 100% of fully hydrogenated product, 8H-2,3-DMID can be achieved at 190 °C and 7 MPa in 4 h. Dehydrogenation of 8H-2,3-DMID was performed over 5 wt% Pd/Al2O3 at 180–210 °C and 101 kPa. It is found that dehydrogenation of 8H-2,3-DMID followed first order kinetics with an apparent activation energy of 39.6 kJ mol−1. The structures of intermediates produced in the 8H-2,3-DMID dehydrogenation process were analyzed by DFT calculations. The hydrogenation and dehydrogenation of 2,3-dimethylindole was studied. The released hydrogen was in a high purity, detected by DSMS.![]()

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as promising materials and have attracted researchers due to their unique chemical and physical properties-design flexibility, tuneable pore channels, a high surface-to-volume ratio that allow their distinct application in diverse research fields-gas storage, gas separation, catalysis, adsorption, drug delivery, ion exchange, sensing, etc. The rapidly growing CO2 in the atmosphere is a global concern due to the excessive use of fossil fuels in the current era. CO2 is the prime cause of global warming and should be ameliorated either through adsorption or conversion into value-added products to protect the environment and mankind. Nowadays, MOFs are exploited as a photocatalyst for applications of CO2 reduction. Since the use of semiconductors limits the use of visible light for photocatalytic reduction of CO2, MOFs are promising options. The current review describes recent development in the application of MOFs as host, composites, and their derivatives in photocatalytic reduction of CO2 to CO and different organic chemicals (HCOOH, CH3OH, CH4). Efficient charge separation and visible light absorption by incorporation of active sites for efficient photocatalysis have been discussed. The selection of material for high CO2 uptake and potential strategies for the rational design and development of high-performance catalysts are outlined. Major challenges and future perspectives have also been discussed at the last of the review.

Abstract
A 3D metal-organic framework (MOF) called Al-DUT-5-N2H3 (1) (DUT: Dresden University of Technology) was prepared hydrothermally using Al(iii) salt and a hydrazinyl functionalized linker called 2-hydrazinyl-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4,4'-dicarboxylic acid (BPDC-N2H3). Material 1 was successfully characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), FT-IR spectroscopy, N2 sorption (BET) experiment, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), EDX and FE-SEM analyses. The activated form of material 1 (called 1') was achieved by a direct heating process. Material 1' was successfully employed for the solution-phase fluorescence detection of α-ketoglutaric acid (α-KG). It showed high detection performance even when there were other competitive analytes present in the mixture. Material 1' is the first MOF-based fluorescent turn-off sensor for the detection of α-KG. The response time for α-KG is exceptionally low (60 s) as compared to any other reported α-KG sensor. The limit of detection (LOD) was found to be 0.61 μM, which is far better as compared to any other reported sensor for α-KG to date. The mechanism for α-KG sensing was thoroughly investigated and proposed to be PET (photoinduced electron transfer) process by TD-DFT (time-dependent DFT) calculations.

Abstract
The continuous rise in the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide gas (CO2) is of significant global concern. Several methodologies and technologies are proposed and applied by the industries to mitigate the emissions of CO2 into the atmosphere. This review article offers a large number of studies that aim to capture, convert, or reduce CO2 by using a superb porous class of materials (metal-organic frameworks, MOFs), aiming to tackle this worldwide issue. MOFs possess several remarkable features ranging from high surface area and porosity to functionality and morphology. As a result of these unique features, MOFs were selected as the main class of porous material in this review article. MOFs act as an ideal candidate for the CO2 capture process. The main approaches for capturing CO2 are pre-combustion capture, post-combustion capture, and oxy-fuel combustion capture. The applications of MOFs in the carbon capture processes were extensively overviewed. In addition, the applications of MOFs in the adsorption, membrane separation, catalytic conversion, and electrochemical reduction processes of CO2 were also studied in order to provide new practical and efficient techniques for CO2 mitigation.

Abstract
Four isostructural CPO-54-M metal-organic frameworks based on the larger organic linker 1,5-dihydroxynaphthalene-2,6-dicarboxylic acid and divalent cations (M=Mn, Mg, Ni, Co) are shown to be isoreticular to the CPO-27 (MOF-74) materials. Desolvated CPO-54-Mn contains a very high concentration of open metal sites, which has a pronounced effect on the gas adsorption of N2 , H2 , CO2 and CO. Initial isosteric heats of adsorption are significantly higher than for MOFs without open metal sites and are slightly higher than for CPO-27. The plateau of high heat of adsorption decreases earlier in CPO-54-Mn as a function of loading per mole than in CPO-27-Mn. Cluster and periodic density functional theory based calculations of the adsorbate structures and energetics show that the larger adsorption energy at low loadings, when only open metal sites are occupied, is mainly due to larger contribution of dispersive interactions for the materials with the larger, more electron rich bridging ligand.

Abstract
Classical molecular simulations can provide significant insights into the gas adsorption mechanisms and binding sites in various metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). These simulations involve assessing the interactions between the MOF and an adsorbate molecule by calculating the potential energy of the MOF-adsorbate system using a functional form that generally includes nonbonded interaction terms, such as the repulsion/dispersion and permanent electrostatic energies. Grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) is the most widely used classical method that is carried out to simulate gas adsorption and separation in MOFs and identify the favorable adsorbate binding sites. In this review, we provide an overview of the GCMC methods that are normally utilized to perform these simulations. We also describe how a typical force field is developed for the MOF, which is required to compute the classical potential energy of the system. Furthermore, we highlight some of the common analysis techniques that have been used to determine the locations of the preferential binding sites in these materials. We also review some of the early classical molecular simulation studies that have contributed to our working understanding of the gas adsorption mechanisms in MOFs. Finally, we show that the implementation of classical polarization for simulations in MOFs can be necessary for the accurate modeling of an adsorbate in these materials, particularly those that contain open-metal sites. In general, molecular simulations can provide a great complement to experimental studies by helping to rationalize the favorable MOF-adsorbate interactions and the mechanism of gas adsorption.

Nguyen-Thuy T, Le-Hoang P, Hoang Vu N, Le TNM, Le Hoang Doan T, Kuo JL, Nguyen TT, Phan TB, Nguyen-Manh D. Hydrogen adsorption mechanism of MOF-74 metal–organic frameworks: an insight from first principles calculations. RSC Adv 2020; 10:43940-43949. [PMID: 35517181 PMCID: PMC9058421 DOI: 10.1039/d0ra08864a] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2020] [Accepted: 11/24/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
The microscopic mechanism of the H2 adsorption of two Mg-MOF-74 isoreticular frameworks, one with a benzenedicarboxylate (BDC) linker and the other with a dihydroxyfumarate (DHF) linker, were studied on the basis of density functional theory (DFT) method. Possible adsorption sites on the internal surface of the two MOFs were detected using ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) annealing simulations. The simulations were able to reproduce all adsorption sites which have been experimentally observed for the BDC-based M-MOF-74 frameworks with M = Ni and Zn. In descending order of binding strengths, they are the adsorption sites primarily induced by the open metal sites P1, the oxygen atoms of the oxido groups P2 and the aromatic rings P3. The H2–framework binding strengths were properly evaluated by taking into account the vibrational zero-point energy (ZPE) contribution. An additional type of adsorption sites induced by the oxygen atoms of the carboxyl groups P4 is predicted for the Mg-MOF-74 framework. Two types of adsorption sites primarily induced by the open metal sites P1 and oxygen atoms of the carboxyl groups P2 were predicted for the DHF-based Mg-MOF-74 framework. Detailed analysis of the electron density showed that the electrostatic interaction of the H2 molecule with the charge distribution of the local framework environment within a radius of ∼3.5 Å is a key factor to define adsorption positions and binding strength. The absence of the P4 sites in the BDC-based Zn-MOF-74 framework is caused by the lower charge density at the oxygen atoms induced by less electro-positive metal. The substitution of the nonaromatic DHF linker for the aromatic BDC linker reduces the binding strength at the metal induced adsorption sites by 1.45 kJ mol−1 due to the absence of the aromatic ring. The microscopic mechanism of the H2 adsorption of two Mg-MOF-74 isoreticular frameworks, one with a benzenedicarboxylate linker and the other with a dihydroxyfumarate linker, were studied on the basis of density functional theory (DFT) method.![]()

Abstract
Few hydrogen adsorbents balance high usable volumetric and gravimetric capacities. Although metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have recently demonstrated progress in closing this gap, the large number of MOFs has hindered the identification of optimal materials. Here, a systematic assessment of published databases of real and hypothetical MOFs is presented. Nearly 500,000 compounds were screened computationally, and the most promising were assessed experimentally. Three MOFs with capacities surpassing that of IRMOF-20, the record-holder for balanced hydrogen capacity, are demonstrated: SNU-70, UMCM-9, and PCN-610/NU-100. Analysis of trends reveals the existence of a volumetric ceiling at ∼40 g H2 L-1. Surpassing this ceiling is proposed as a new capacity target for hydrogen adsorbents. Counter to earlier studies of total hydrogen uptake in MOFs, usable capacities in the highest-capacity materials are negatively correlated with density and volumetric surface area. Instead, capacity is maximized by increasing gravimetric surface area and porosity. This suggests that property/performance trends for total capacities may not translate to usable capacities.

Abstract
Metal organic frameworks (MOFs), as an original kind of organic-inorganic porous material, are constructed with metal centers and organic linkers via a coordination complexation reaction. Among uncountable MOF materials, iron-containing metal organic frameworks (Fe-MOFs) have excellent potential in practical applications owing to their many fascinating properties, such as diverse structure types, low toxicity, preferable stability, and tailored functionality. Here, recent research progresses of Fe-MOFs in attractive features, synthesis, and multifunctional applications are described. Fe-MOFs with porosity and tailored functionality are discussed according to the design of building blocks. Four types of synthetic methods including solvothermal, hydrothermal, microwave, and dry gel conversion synthesis are illustrated. Finally, the applications of Fe-MOFs in Li-ion batteries, sensors, gas storage, separation in gas and liquid phases, and catalysis are elucidated, focusing on the mechanism. The aim is to provide prospects for extending Fe-MOFs in more practical applications.

Abstract
A series of functionalization -NH2, -Br and -NO2 has been performed on MIL-68(In) material in order to improve the porosity features of the pristine material. The functional groups grafted onto the ligand and the molar ratios of the ingredient indicate a profound influence on product formation. With the incremental amount of metal source, product structures undergo the transformation from MIL-68 to MIL-53 or QMOF-2. The situation is different depending on the variation of the ligands. Gas (N2, Ar, H2 and CO2) adsorption-desorption isotherms were systematically investigated to explore the impact of the functionalization on the porous prototypical framework. Comparison of adsorption behaviour of N2 and Ar indicates that the polar molecule exhibits striking interaction to N2 molecule, which has a considerable quadrupole moment. Therefore, as a probe molecule, Ar with no quadrupole moment is more suitable to characterize the surface area with the polar groups. Meanwhile, Ar adsorption result confirms that the negative influence on the surface area stems from the size of the substituting groups. The uptake of H2 and CO2 indicates that the introduction of appropriate polar organic groups can effectively enhance the adsorption enthalpy of relative gases and improve the gas adsorption capacity apparently at low pressure. The introduction of -NO2 is in favour of improving the H2 adsorption capacity, while the grafted -NH2 groups can most effectively enhance the CO2 adsorption capacity.

Abstract
Simulations of CO2 and H2 sorption were performed in an rht-metal-organic framework (MOF) that consists of Cu2+ ions coordinated to 5,5',5''-(4,4',4''-(benzene-1,3,5-triyl)tris(1H-1,2,3-triazole-4,1-diyl))triisophthalate (BTTI) linkers; it is referred to as Cu-BTTI herein. This MOF was previously synthesized and reported by three different experimental groups [Zhao et al., Sci. Rep., 2013, 3, 1149; Schröder et al., Chem. Sci., 2013, 4, 1731-1736; Hupp et al., Energy Environ. Sci., 2013, 6, 1158-1163]. This MOF is notable for the presence of open-metal sites and nitrogen-rich regions through the copper paddlewheel ([Cu2(O2CR)4]) clusters and 1,2,3-triazole groups, respectively, which allows this material to display remarkable CO2 and H2 sorption properties. All three groups report distinct experimental and theoretical gas sorption results for the MOF. In contrast to the force fields utilized in the aforementioned studies, our simulations include explicit many-body polarization interactions, which was important to reproduce sorption onto the open-metal sites. Simulations using polarizable potentials for the MOF and sorbates generated sorption isotherms and isosteric heat of adsorption (Qst) values that are outstanding agreement with the corresponding experimental data for all three groups; this is in contrast to the theoretical results presented in the respective original references. The simulations carried out in the previous studies often looked reasonable but they missed a key feature of the sorption process that lead to unreliable results. Analysis of the radial distribution function (g(r)) about the open-metal sites and examination of the modeled structure reveal that the CO2 and H2 molecules prefer to sorb onto two unique types of Cu2+ ions that exhibit the highest partial positive charges. Sorption was also observed within the corners of the truncated tetrahedral (T-Td) cages and onto the 1,2,3-triazole groups of the linkers for both sorbates. Overall, this study demonstrates how utilizing a classical polarizable force field led to the reproduction of experimental observables and allowed for an accurate description of the sorption mechanism in this MOF that is an important member of the rht-MOF family.

Abstract
Porous metal-graphyne framework (MGF) made up of graphyne linker decorated with lithium has been investigated for hydrogen storage. Applying density functional theory spin-polarized generalized gradient approximation with the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof functional containing Grimme's diffusion parameter with double numeric polarization basis set, the structural stability, and physicochemical properties have been analyzed. Each linker binds two Li atoms over the surface of the graphyne linker forming MGF-Li8 by Dewar coordination. On saturation with hydrogen, each Li atom physisorbs three H2 molecules resulting in MGF-Li8-H24. H2 and Li interact by charge polarization mechanism leading to elongation in average H-H bond length indicating physisorption. Sorption energy decreases gradually from ≈0.4 to 0.20 eV on H2 loading. Molecular dynamics simulations and computed sorption energy range indicate the high reversibility of H2 in the MGF-Li8 framework with the hydrogen storage capacity of 6.4 wt %. The calculated thermodynamic practical hydrogen storage at room temperature makes the Li-decorated MGF system a promising hydrogen storage material.

Abstract
![]()
In this work, a theoretical
framework is developed to explain and
predict changes in the product distribution of the propene dimerization
reaction, which yields a mixture of C6 olefin isomers,
resulting from the use of different porous materials as catalysts.
The MOF-74 class of materials has shown promise in catalyzing the
dimerization of propene with high selectivity for valuable linear
olefin products. We show that experimentally observed changes in the
product distribution can be explained in terms of the contribution
of the pores to the free energy of formation, which are directly computed
using molecular simulation. Our model is used to screen a library
of 118 existing and hypothetical MOF and zeolite structures to study
how product distribution can be tuned by changing pore size, shape,
and composition of porous materials. Using these molecular descriptors,
catalyst properties are identified that increase the selective reaction
of linear olefin isomers, which are valued as industrial feedstocks.
A pore size commensurate with the size of the desired linear products
enhances linear conversion by sterically hindering the branched isomers.
Another promising feature is the presence of open metal sites, which
interact with the olefin π-bond to provide favorable binding
sites for the linear isomers.

Abstract
![]()
For applications of metal–organic
frameworks (MOFs) such
as gas storage and separation, flexibility is often seen as a parameter
that can tune material performance. In this work we aim to determine
the optimal flexibility for the shape selective separation of similarly
sized molecules (e.g., Xe/Kr mixtures). To obtain systematic insight
into how the flexibility impacts this type of separation, we develop
a simple analytical model that predicts a material’s Henry
regime adsorption and selectivity as a function of flexibility. We
elucidate the complex dependence of selectivity on a framework’s
intrinsic flexibility whereby performance is either improved or reduced
with increasing flexibility, depending on the material’s pore
size characteristics. However, the selectivity of a material with
the pore size and chemistry that already maximizes selectivity in
the rigid approximation is continuously diminished with increasing
flexibility, demonstrating that the globally optimal separation exists
within an entirely rigid pore. Molecular simulations show that our
simple model predicts performance trends that are observed when screening
the adsorption behavior of flexible MOFs. These flexible simulations
provide better agreement with experimental adsorption data in a high-performance
material that is not captured when modeling this framework as rigid,
an approximation typically made in high-throughput screening studies.
We conclude that, for shape selective adsorption applications, the globally optimal material will have the optimal pore size/chemistry and minimal intrinsic flexibility even though other nonoptimal
materials’ selectivity can actually be improved by flexibility.
Equally important, we find that flexible simulations can be critical
for correctly modeling adsorption in these types of systems.
