ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES 2024; 16:45006-45019. [PMID: 39141894 PMCID: PMC11367578 DOI: 10.1021/acsami.4c10678] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2024] [Revised: 08/01/2024] [Accepted: 08/08/2024] [Indexed: 08/16/2024]
Abstract
The confinement effect of porous materials on the thermodynamical equilibrium of the CO2 hydrogenation reaction presents a cost-effective alternative to transition metal catalysts. In metal-organic frameworks, the type of metal center has a greater impact on the enhancement of formic acid production than the scale of confinement resulting from the pore size. The M-MOF-74 series enables a comprehensive study of how different metal centers affect HCOOH production, minimizing the effect of pore size. In this work, molecular simulations were used to analyze the adsorption of HCOOH and the CO2 hydrogenation reaction in M-MOF-74, where M = Ni, Cu, Co, Fe, Mn, Zn. We combine classical simulations and density functional theory calculations to gain insights into the mechanisms that govern the low coverage adsorption of HCOOH in the surrounding of the metal centers of M-MOF-74. The impact of metal centers on the HCOOH yield was assessed by Monte Carlo simulations in the grand-canonical ensemble, using gas-phase compositions of CO2, H2, and HCOOH at chemical equilibrium at 298.15-800 K, 1-60 bar. The performance of M-MOF-74 in HCOOH production follows the same order as the uptake and the heat of HCOOH adsorption: Ni > Co > Fe > Mn > Zn > Cu. Ni-MOF-74 increases the mole fraction of HCOOH by ca. 105 times compared to the gas phase at 298.15 K, 60 bar. Ni-MOF-74 has the potential to be more economically attractive for CO2 conversion than transition metal catalysts, achieving HCOOH production at concentrations comparable to the highest formate levels reported for transition metal catalysts and offering a more valuable molecular form of the product.

Abstract
Despite the known impacts on climate change of carbon dioxide emissions, the continued use of fossil fuels for energy generation leading to the emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere is evident. Therefore, innovation to address and reduce CO2 emissions from industrial operations remains an urgent and crucial priority. A viable strategy in the area is postcombustion capture mainly through absorption by aqueous alkanolamines, which focuses on the separation of CO2 from flue gas, despite its limitations. Within this context, porous materials, particularly metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), have arisen as favorable alternatives owing to their significant adsorption capacity, selectivity, and reduced regeneration energy demands. This research evaluates the engineering insights into tailored MOFs for enhanced CO2 capture, focusing on three series of MOFs (ZIF, UiO-66, and BTC) to investigate the effects of organic ligands, functional groups, and metal ions. The evaluation encompassed a range of aspects including adsorption isotherms of pure gases [CO2 and nitrogen (N2)] and mixed gas mixture (CO2 and N2 with 15:85% ratio), along with utilization of the ideal adsorbed solution theory (IAST) to simulate multicomponent gas adsorption isotherms. Moreover, the reliability of IAST for mixed gas adsorption prediction has been investigated in detail. The research offers valuable insights into the correlation between the characteristics of MOFs and their effectiveness in gas separation and how these characteristics contribute to the differences between IAST predictions and experimental results. The findings enhance the understanding of how to enhance MOF characteristics in order to reduce CO2 emissions and also highlight the need for advanced models that consider thermodynamic nonidealities to accurately predict the behavior of mixed gas adsorption in MOFs. As a result, the incorporation of MOFs with enhanced predictability and reliability into CO2 capture industrial processes is facilitated.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenously produced gasotransmitter involved in many physiological processes that are integral to proper cellular functioning. Due to its profound anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, H2S plays important roles in preventing inflammatory skin disorders and improving wound healing. Transdermal H2S delivery is a therapeutically viable option for the management of such disorders. However, current small-molecule H2S donors are not optimally suited for transdermal delivery and typically generate electrophilic byproducts that may lead to undesired toxicity. Here, we demonstrate that H2S release from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) bearing coordinatively unsaturated metal centers is a promising alternative for controlled transdermal delivery of H2S. Gas sorption measurements and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) studies of 11 MOFs support that the Mg-based framework Mg2(dobdc) (dobdc4- = 2,5-dioxidobenzene-1,4-dicarboxylate) is uniquely well-suited for transdermal H2S delivery due to its strong yet reversible binding of H2S, high capacity (14.7 mmol/g at 1 bar and 25 °C), and lack of toxicity. In addition, Rietveld refinement of synchrotron PXRD data from H2S-dosed Mg2(dobdc) supports that the high H2S capacity of this framework arises due to the presence of three distinct binding sites. Last, we demonstrate that transdermal delivery of H2S from Mg2(dobdc) is sustained over a 24 h period through porcine skin. Not only is this significantly longer than sodium sulfide but this represents the first example of controlled transdermal delivery of pure H2S gas. Overall, H2S-loaded Mg2(dobdc) is an easily accessible, solid-state source of H2S, enabling safe storage and transdermal delivery of this therapeutically relevant gas.

Abstract
Direct air capture (DAC) shows considerable promise for the effective removal of CO2; however, materials applicable to DAC are lacking. Among metal-organic framework (MOF) adsorbents, diamine-Mg2(dobpdc) (dobpdc4- = 4,4-dioxidobiphenyl-3,3'-dicarboxylate) effectively removes low-pressure CO2, but the synthesis of the organic ligand requires high temperature, high pressure, and a toxic solvent. Besides, it is necessary to isolate the ligand for utilization in the synthesis of the framework. In this study, we synthesized a new variant of extended MOF-74-type frameworks, M2(hob) (M = Mg2+, Co2+, Ni2+, and Zn2+; hob4- = 5,5'-(hydrazine-1,2-diylidenebis(methanylylidene))bis(2-oxidobenzoate)), constructed from an azine-bonded organic ligand obtained through a facile condensation reaction at room temperature. Functionalization of Mg2(hob) with N-methylethylenediamine, N-ethylethylenediamine, and N,N'-dimethylethylenediamine (mmen) enables strong interactions with low-pressure CO2, resulting in top-tier adsorption capacities of 2.60, 2.49, and 2.91 mmol g-1 at 400 ppm of CO2, respectively. Under humid conditions, the CO2 capacity was higher than under dry conditions due to the presence of water molecules that aid in the formation of bicarbonate species. A composite material combining mmen-Mg2(hob) and polyvinylidene fluoride, a hydrophobic polymer, retained its excellent adsorption performance even after 7 days of exposure to 40% relative humidity. In addition, the one-pot synthesis of Mg2(hob) from a mixture of the corresponding monomers is achieved without separate ligand synthesis steps; thus, this framework is suitable for facile large-scale production. This work underscores that the newly synthesized Mg2(hob) and its composites demonstrate significant potential for DAC applications.

Abstract
Superlong MOF-74-type micro/nanofibers, which have aspect ratios much higher than 200, are synthesized via nanoparticulate MOF-mediated recrystallization. Co-MOF-74 microfibers have high crystallinity, whereas Co-MOF-74-II nanofibers are composed of nanocrystals and amorphous phases, even though they have nanofibrous morphology. Both MOFs consist of plenty of micropores with diameters in the range of 1.0 to 2.0 nm, and they exhibit high thermal stability with a decomposition temperature higher than 260.0 °C. The MOFs are demonstrated for selective absorption of some vitamins including riboflavin, folic acid, and 5-methyltetrahydrofolate. Co-MOF-74-II nanofibers can efficiently absorb riboflavin and folic acid from their aqueous solution with absorption percentages approaching 90.0%, and they have enhanced capability for absorbing tocopherol in methanol. The micro/nanofibrous morphology, together with the capability for selective vitamin absorption, makes the novel MOFs highly promising for applications in micro-solid-phase extraction.

Abstract
Direct determination of the equilibrium adsorption and spectroscopic observation of adsorbent-adsorbate interaction is crucial to evaluate the olefin/paraffin separation performance of porous adsorbents. However, the experimental characterization of competitive adsorption of various adsorbates at atomic-molecular level in the purification of multicomponent gas mixtures is challenging and rarely conducted. Herein, solid-state NMR spectroscopy is employed to examine the effect of co-adsorbed guest adsorbates on the separation of ethylene/ethane mixtures on Mg-MOF-74, Zn-MOF-74 and UTSA-74. 1H MAS NMR facilitates the determination of equilibrium uptake and adsorption selectivity of ethylene/ethane in ternary mixtures. The co-adsorption of H2O and CO2 significantly leads to the degradation of ethylene uptake and ethylene/ethane selectivity. The detailed host-guest and guest-guest interactions are unraveled by 2D 1H-1H spin diffusion homo-nuclear correlation and static 25Mg NMR experiments. The experimental results verify H2O coordinated on open metal sites can supply a new adsorption site for ethylene and ethane. The effects of guest adsorbates on the adsorption capacity and adsorption selectivity of ethylene/ethane mixtures are in the following order: H2O>CO2>O2. This work provides a direct approach for exploring the equilibrium adsorption and detailed separation mechanism of multicomponent gas mixtures using MOFs adsorbents.

Abstract
While computational screening with density functional theory (DFT) is frequently employed for the screening of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for gas separation and storage, commonly applied generalized gradient approximations (GGAs) exhibit self-interaction errors, which hinder the predictions of adsorption energies. We investigate the Hubbard U parameter to augment DFT calculations for full periodic MOFs, targeting a more precise modeling of gas molecule-MOF interactions, specifically for N2, CO2, and O2. We introduce a calibration scheme for the U parameter, which is tailored for each MOF, by leveraging higher-level calculations on the secondary building unit (SBU) of the MOF. When applied to the full periodic MOF, the U parameter calibrated against hybrid HSE06 calculations of SBUs successfully reproduces hybrid-quality calculations of the adsorption energy of the periodic MOF. The mean absolute deviation of adsorption energies reduces from 0.13 eV for a standard GGA treatment to 0.06 eV with the calibrated U, demonstrating the utility of the calibration procedure when applied to the full MOF structure. Furthermore, attempting to use coupled cluster singles and doubles with perturbative triples calculations of isolated SBUs for this calibration procedure shows varying degrees of success in predicting the experimental heat of adsorption. It improves accuracy for N2 adsorption for cases of overbinding, whereas its impact on CO2 is minimal, and ambiguities in spin state assignment hinder consistent improvements of O2 adsorption. Our findings emphasize the limitations of cluster models and advocate the use of full periodic MOF systems with a calibrated U parameter, providing a more comprehensive understanding of gas adsorption in MOFs.

Abstract
Many unique adsorption properties of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been revealed by diffraction crystallography, visualizing their vacant and guest-loaded crystal structures at the molecular scale. However, it has been challenging to see the spatial distribution of the adsorption behaviors throughout a single MOF particle in a transient equilibrium state. Here, we report three-dimensional (3D) visualization of molecular adsorption behaviors in a single crystalline particle of a MOF by in situ X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy combined with computed tomography for the first time. The 3D maps of water-coordinated Co sites in a 100 μm-scale MOF-74-Co crystal were obtained with 1 μm spatial resolution under several water vapor pressures. Through the visualization of the water vapor adsorption process, 3D spectroimaging revealed the mechanism and spatial heterogeneity of guest adsorption inside a single particle of a crystalline MOF.

Abstract
A new magnesium-based metal-organic framework with unprecedented short-chain secondary building units and ultra-micropore channels approaching the kinetic diameters of Xe is fabricated by decorating methyl groups on ligands. Due to the contracted pores, this MOF exhibits very high selectivity values for Xe/Kr, which ranks it among the top porous absorbents.

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2024; 121:e2312959121. [PMID: 38300865 PMCID: PMC10861867 DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2312959121] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2023] [Accepted: 12/07/2023] [Indexed: 02/03/2024] Open
Abstract
The incorporation of multiple metal ions in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) through one-pot synthesis can induce unique properties originating from specific atomic-scale spatial apportionment, but the extraction of this crucial information poses challenges. Herein, nondestructive solid-state NMR spectroscopy was used to discern the atomic-scale metal apportionment in a series of bulk Mg1-xCox-MOF-74 samples via identification and quantification of eight distinct arrangements of Mg/Co ions labeled with a 13C-carboxylate, relative to Co content. Due to the structural characteristics of metal-oxygen chains, the number of metal permutations is infinite for Mg1-xCox-MOF-74, making the resolution of atomic-scale metal apportionment particularly challenging. The results were then employed in density functional theory calculations to unravel the molecular mechanism underlying the macroscopic adsorption properties of several industrially significant gases. It is found that the incorporation of weak adsorption sites (Mg2+ for CO and Co2+ for CO2 adsorption) into the MOF structure counterintuitively boosts the gas adsorption energy on strong sites (Co2+ for CO and Mg2+ for CO2 adsorption). Such effect is significant even for Co2+ remote from Mg2+ in the metal-oxygen chain, resulting in a greater enhancement of CO adsorption across a broad composition range, while the enhancement of CO2 adsorption is restricted to Mg2+ with adjacent Co2+. Dynamic breakthrough measurements unambiguously verified the trend in gas adsorption as a function of metal composition. This research thus illuminates the interplay between atomic-scale structures and macroscopic gas adsorption properties in mixed-metal MOFs and derived materials, paving the way for developing superior functional materials.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are considered to be a promising porous material due to their excellent porosity and chemical tailorability. However, due to the relatively weak strength of coordination bonds, the stability (e.g., water stability) of MOFs is usually poor, which severely inhibits their practical applications. To prepare water-stable MOFs, several important strategies such as increasing the bonding strength of building units and introducing hydrophobic units have been proposed, and many MOFs with excellent water stability have been prepared. Carbon dioxide not only causes a range of climate and health problems but also is a by-product of some important chemicals (e.g., natural gas). Due to their excellent adsorption performances, MOFs are considered as a promising adsorbent that can capture carbon dioxide efficiently and energetically, and many water-stable MOFs have been used to capture carbon dioxide in various scenarios, including flue gas decarbonization, direct air capture, and purified crude natural gas. In this review, we first introduce the design and synthesis of water-stable MOFs and then describe their applications in carbon dioxide capture, and finally provide some personal comments on the challenges facing these areas.

Abstract
Small molecules may adsorb strongly in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) through interactions with under-coordinated open metal sites (OMS) that often exist within these structures. Among adsorbates, CO is attractive to study both for its relevance in energy-related applications and for its ability to engage in both σ-donation and π-backbonding interactions with the OMS in MOFs. Concomitant with strong adsorption, structural changes arise due to modifications of the electronic structure of both the adsorbate and adsorbent. These structural changes affect the separation performance of materials, and accurately capturing these changes and the resulting energetics is critical for accurate predictive modeling of adsorption. Traditional approaches to modeling using classical force fields typically do not capture or account for changes at the electronic level. To characterize the structural and energetic effects of the local structural changes, we employed density functional theory (DFT) to study CO adsorption in M-MOF-74s. M-MOF-74s feature OMS at which CO is known to adsorb strongly and can be synthesized with a variety of divalent metal cations with distinct performance in adsorption. We considered M-MOF-74s with a range of metals of varied d-band occupations (Mg (3d0), Mn (3d5), Ni (3d8), and Zn (3d10)) with various structural constraints ranging from geometrically constrained adsorbent and adsorbate ions to fully optimized geometries to deconvolute the relative contributions of various structural effects to the adsorption energetics and binding distances observed. Our data indicate that the most significant structural changes during adsorption correlate with the greatest π-backbonding behaviors and commensurately result in a sizable binding energy change observed for CO adsorption. The insights built from this work are relevant to two longstanding research challenges within the MOF community: rational design of materials for separations and the design of force fields capable of accurately modeling adsorption.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous, crystalline materials constructed from organic linkers and inorganic nodes with potential utility in gas separations, drug delivery, sensing, and catalysis. Small variations in MOF synthesis conditions can lead to a range of accessible frameworks with divergent chemical or photophysical properties. New methods to controllably access phases with tailored properties would broaden the scope of MOFs that can be reliably prepared for specific applications. Herein, we demonstrate that simply increasing the reaction concentration during the solvothermal synthesis of M2(dobdc) (M = Mg, Mn, Ni; dobdc4- = 2,5-dioxido-1,4-benzenedicarboxylate) MOFs unexpectedly leads to trapping of a new framework termed CORN-MOF-1 (CORN = Cornell University) instead. In-depth spectroscopic, crystallographic, and computational studies support that CORN-MOF-1 has a similar structure to M2(dobdc) but with partially protonated linkers and charge-balancing or coordinated formate groups in the pores. The resultant variation in linker spacings causes CORN-MOF-1 (Mg) to be strongly photoluminescent in the solid state, whereas H4dobdc and Mg2(dobdc) are weakly emissive due to excimer formation. In-depth photophysical studies suggest that CORN-MOF-1 (Mg) is the first MOF based on the H2dobdc2- linker that likely does not emit via an excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) pathway. In addition, CORN-MOF-1 variants can be converted into high-quality samples of the thermodynamic M2(dobdc) phases by heating in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). Overall, our findings support that high-concentration synthesis provides a straightforward method to identify new MOFs with properties distinct from known materials and to produce highly porous samples of MOFs, paving the way for the discovery and gram-scale synthesis of framework materials.

Abstract
In this work, we investigate the vapor-assisted synthesis of the metal-organic framework MOF-74 starting from three metal oxides (ZnO, CoO, and MgO). Depending on the nature of the added vapor (H2O, DMF, DMSO), the metal oxide, and the temperature, the outcome of the reaction can be directed towards the desired porous phase. Ex situ and in situ XRD measurements reveal the formation of an intermediate phase during the reaction of MgO with H4dobdc, while the MOF-74 phase forms directly for ZnO and CoO. The reduced CO2 uptake of the resulting materials compared to solvothermally prepared MOFs might be offset by the convenience of the presented route and the promise of a high space time yield.

Abstract
Indoor air contamination by phthalate ester (PAE) derivatives has become a significant concern since traces of PAEs can cause endocrine disruption, among other health issues. PAE abatement from the environment is thus mandatory to further ensure a good quality of indoor air. Herein, we explored the physisorption-based capture of volatile PAEs by metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). A high-throughput computational screening approach was first applied on databases compiling more than 20,000 MOF structures in order to identify the best MOFs for adsorbing traces of dimethyl phthalate (DMP), considered as a representative molecule of the family of PAE contaminants. Among the 20 top candidates, MOF-74(Ni), which combines substantial DMP uptake at the 10 ppm concentration level (∼0.20 g g-1) with high adsorption enthalpy at infinite dilution (-ΔHads(DMP),0 = 109.9 kJ mol-1), was revealed as an excellent porous material to capture airborne DMP. This prediction was validated by further experiments: gravimetric sorption isotherms were carried out on MOF-74(Ni), replacing DMP by dimethyl maleate (DMM), a molecule with a higher vapor pressure and indeed easier to manipulate compared to DMP while mimicking the adsorption behavior of DMP by MOFs, as evidenced by Monte Carlo calculations. Notably, saturation of DMM by MOF-74(Ni) (∼0.35 g g-1 at 343 K) occurs at very low equivalent concentration of the sorbate, i.e., 15 ppm, while half of the DMM molecules remain trapped in the MOF pores, even by heating the system up to 473 K under vacuum. This computational-experimental study reveals for the first time the potential of MOFs for the capture of phthalate ester contaminants as vapors of key importance to address indoor air quality issues.

Abstract
Xe is an ideal anesthetic gas, but it has not been widely used in practice due to its high cost and low output. Closed-circuit Xe recovery and recycling is an economically viable method to ensure adequate supply in medical use. Herein, we design an innovative way to recover Xe by using a stable fluorinated metal-organic framework (MOF) NbOFFIVE-1-Ni to eliminate CO2 from moist exhaled anesthetic gases. Unlike other Xe recovery MOFs with low Xe/CO2 selectivity (less than 10), NbOFFIVE-1-Ni could achieve absolute molecular sieve separation of CO2 /Xe with excellent CO2 selectivity (825). Mixed-gas breakthrough experiments assert the potential of NbOFFIVE-1-Ni as a molecular sieve adsorbent for the effective and energy-efficient removal of carbon dioxide with 99.16 % Xe recovery. Absolute CO2 /Xe separation in NbOFFIVE-1-Ni makes closed-circuit Xe recovery and recycling can be easily realized, demonstrating the potential of NbOFFIVE-1-Ni for important anesthetic gas regeneration under ambient conditions.

Abstract
Fluorine is an increasingly common substituent in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals because it improves the bioavailability and metabolic stability of organic molecules. Fluorinated gases represent intuitive building blocks for the late-stage installation of fluorinated groups, but they are generally overlooked because they require the use of specialized equipment. We report a general strategy for handling fluorinated gases as benchtop-stable solid reagents using metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Gas-MOF reagents are prepared on gram-scale and used to facilitate fluorovinylation and fluoroalkylation reactions. Encapsulation of gas-MOF reagents within wax enables stable storage on the benchtop and controlled release into solution upon sonication, which represents a safer alternative to handling the gas directly. Furthermore, our approach enables high-throughput reaction development with these gases.

Abstract
Nanoporous materials such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been extensively studied for their potential for adsorption and separation applications. In this respect, grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations have become a well-established tool for computational screenings of the adsorption properties of large sets of MOFs. However, their reliance on empirical force field potentials has limited the accuracy with which this tool can be applied to MOFs with challenging chemical environments such as open-metal sites. On the other hand, density-functional theory (DFT) is too computationally demanding to be routinely employed in GCMC simulations due to the excessive number of required function evaluations. Therefore, we propose in this paper a protocol for training machine learning potentials (MLPs) on a limited set of DFT intermolecular interaction energies (and forces) of CO2 in ZIF-8 and the open-metal site containing Mg-MOF-74, and use the MLPs to derive adsorption isotherms from first principles. We make use of the equivariant NequIP model which has demonstrated excellent data efficiency, and as such an error on the interaction energies below 0.2 kJ mol-1 per adsorbate in ZIF-8 was attained. Its use in GCMC simulations results in highly accurate adsorption isotherms and heats of adsorption. For Mg-MOF-74, a large dependence of the obtained results on the used dispersion correction was observed, where PBE-MBD performs the best. Lastly, to test the transferability of the MLP trained on ZIF-8, it was applied to ZIF-3, ZIF-4, and ZIF-6, which resulted in large deviations in the predicted adsorption isotherms and heats of adsorption. Only when explicitly training on data for all ZIFs, accurate adsorption properties were obtained. As the proposed methodology is widely applicable to guest adsorption in nanoporous materials, it opens up the possibility for training general-purpose MLPs to perform highly accurate investigations of guest adsorption.

Abstract
Even though confinement was identified as a common element of selective catalysis and simulations predicted enhanced properties of adsorbates within microporous materials, experimental results on the characterization of the adsorbed phase are still rare. In this study, we provide experimental evidence of the increase of propene density in the channels of Zn-MOF-74 by 16(2)% compared to the liquid phase. The ordered propene molecules adsorbed within the pores of the MOF have been localized by in situ neutron powder diffraction, and the results are supported by adsorption studies. The formation of a second adsorbate layer, paired with nanoconfinement-induced short intermolecular distances, causes the efficient packing of the propene molecules and results in an increase of olefin density.

Abstract
It is necessary to separate CO2 from biogas to improve its quality for the production of biomethane. Herein, an improvement in the separation of CO2/CH4via adsorption was achieved by modifying the surface of CMS. The surface modification of CMS was performed by impregnation with metal oxide (Fe3O4) and N-doping (DES-[ChCl:Gly]). Subsequently, the efficacy of the surface-modified CMS was investigated. This involved CMS modification, material characterization, and performance analysis. The uptake of CO2 by CMS-DES-[ChCl:Gly] and CMS-Fe3O4 was comparable; however, their performance for the separation of CO2/CH4 was different. Consequently, CMS-DES-[ChCl:Gly] and CMS-Fe3O4 exhibited ca. 1.6 times enhanced CO2 uptake capacity and ca. 1.70 times and 1.55 times enhanced CO2/CH4 separation, respectively. Also, both materials exhibited similar repeatability. However, CMS-DES-[ChCl:Gly] was more difficult to regenerate than CMS-Fe3O4, which is due to the higher adsorption heat value of the former (59.5 kJ).

Abstract
Control over the size, shape, uniformity, and external surface chemistry of metal-organic framework nanocrystals is important for a wide range of applications. Here, we investigate how monotopic modulators that mimic the coordination mode of native bridging ligands affect the growth of anisotropic Co2(dobdc) (dobdc4- = 2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid) nanorods. Through a combination of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) studies, nanorod diameter was found to be strongly correlated to the acidity of the modulator and to the degree of modulator incorporation into the nanorod structure. Notably, highly acidic modulators allowed for the preparation of sub-10 nm nanorods, a previously elusive size regime for the M2(dobdc) family. More broadly, this study provides new insights into the mechanism of modulated growth of metal-organic framework nanoparticles.

Abstract
Defects in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have great impact on their nano-scale structure and physiochemical properties. However, isolated defects are easily concealed when the frameworks are interrogated by typical characterization methods. In this work, we unveil the presence of solvent-derived formate defects in MOF-74, an important class of MOFs with open metal sites. With multi-dimensional solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) investigations, we uncover the ligand substitution role of formate and its chemical origin from decomposed N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) solvent. The placement and coordination structure of formate defects are determined by 13C NMR and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The extra metal-oxygen bonds with formates partially eliminate open metal sites and lead to a quantitative decrease of N2 and CO2 adsorption with respect to the defect concentration. In-situ NMR analysis and molecular simulations of CO2 dynamics elaborate the adsorption mechanisms in defective MOF-74. Our study establishes comprehensive strategies to search, elucidate and manipulate defects in MOFs.

Abstract
Currently, metal-organic framework (MOF)-polymer composites are attracting great interest as a step forward in making MOFs a useful material for industrially relevant applications. However, most of the research is engaged with finding promising MOF/polymer pairs and less with the synthetic methods by which these materials are then combined, albeit hybridization has a significant impact on the properties of the new composite macrostructure. Thus, the focus of this work is on the innovative hybridization of MOFs and polymerized high internal phase emulsions (polyHIPEs), two classes of materials that exhibit porosity at different length scales. The main thrust is the in situ secondary recrystallization, i.e., growth of MOFs from metal oxides previously fixed in polyHIPEs by the Pickering HIPE-templating, and further structure-function study of composites through the CO2 capture behavior. The combination of Pickering HIPE polymerization and secondary recrystallization at the metal oxide-polymer interface proved advantageous, as MOF-74 isostructures based on different metal cations (M2+ = Mg, Co, or Zn) could be successfully shaped in the polyHIPEs' macropores without affecting the properties of the individual components. The successful hybridization resulted in highly porous, co-continuous MOF-74-polyHIPE composite monoliths forming an architectural hierarchy with pronounced macro-microporosity, in which the MOF microporosity is almost completely accessible for gases, i.e., about 87% of the micropores, and the monoliths exhibit excellent mechanical stability. The well-structured porous architecture of the composites showed superior CO2 capture performance compared to the parent MOF-74 powders. Both adsorption and desorption kinetics are significantly faster for composites. Regeneration by temperature swing adsorption recovers about 88% of the total adsorption capacity of the composite, while it is lower for the parent MOF-74 powders (about 75%). Finally, the composites exhibit about 30% improvement in CO2 uptake under working conditions compared to the parent MOF-74 powders, and some of the composites are able to retain 99% of the original adsorption capacity after five adsorption/desorption cycles.

Abstract
CO2 is the main source of the greenhouse gases, and its capture from flue gas under humid conditions is challenging but important for promoting carbon neutrality. Herein, we report a novel soc topology Fe-based metal-organic framework (Fe-dbai) with highly efficient postcombusion CO2 capture performance by integrating multiple specific functionalities, such as unsaturated metal sites and amide functional groups. The CO2 adsorption capacity and CO2/N2 selectivity of Fe-dbai are high up to 6.4 mmol/g and 64 (298 K, 1 bar), respectively, superior to many other reported MOFs. More importantly, the CO2 working capacity of Fe-dbai under 60% RH conditions preserves 94% of that under dry conditions in the breakthrough experiments of CO2/N2 (15:85, v/v) mixtures. The molecular simulation highlights that the electronegative amide CO- group has a good affinity for CO2 and can improve the interaction between Fe UMS and CO2. Although H2O molecules will occupy a small fraction of the adsorption sites, the confinement effect it produces can enhance the adsorption affinity of the framework for CO2, which results in Fe-dbai retaining most of the CO2 adsorption capacity under humid conditions. The excellent CO2 capture performance makes Fe-dbai a potential candidate for the practical application of CO2 capture.

Abstract
While trinuclear [FexM3-x(μ3-O)] cluster-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have found wide applications in gas storage and catalysis, it is still challenging to identify the structure of open metal sites obtained through proper activations and understand their influence on the adsorption and catalytic properties. Herein, we use in situ variable-temperature single-crystal X-ray diffraction to monitor the structural evolution of [FexM3-x(μ3-O)]-based MOFs (PCN-250, M = Ni2+, Co2+, Zn2+, Mg2+) upon thermal activation and provide the snapshots of metal sites at different temperatures. The exposure of open Fe3+ sites was observed along with the transformation of Fe3+ coordination geometries from octahedron to square pyramid. Furthermore, the effect of divalent metals in heterometallic PCN-250 was studied for the purpose of reducing the activation temperature and increasing the number of open metal sites. The metal site structures were corroborated by X-ray absorption and infrared spectroscopy. These results will not only guide the pretreatment of [FexM3-x(μ3-O)]-based MOFs but also corroborate spectral and computational studies on these materials.

Abstract
Composite membranes featuring metal-organic framework (MOF)-dispersed polymers have attracted tremendous attention in recent years. However, evaluating commercial viability is oftentimes obscured by the irreproducibility in both MOF synthesis and film manufacturing protocols. Variability in MOF property sets are typically ascribed to crystal defects resulting from subtle variations in synthesis, but quantitative studies investigating the role of defects on transport properties are exceedingly rare. Likewise, controlled film formation protocols are rarely reported in the open literature, making it difficult to provide substantial and informative structure-property correlations. This study aims to address these uncertainties. To this end, two samples of a prototypical MOF, UiO-66-NH2, were synthesized to feature similar particle size, morphology, and colloidal stability. However, defect engineering protocols coupled with careful screening experiments were developed to synthesize the two MOFs with maximally different porosities. Composite membranes were prepared for each MOF and a high-performance polymer, 6FDA-Durene, and then tested for light gas permeation measurements, revealing a small and unexpected enhancement in CO2/CH4 performance for samples containing low-porosity UiO-66-NH2. Mechanistic studies on sorption revealed a surprising 50% decrease in sorption capacity for high-porosity UiO-66-NH2, completely offsetting enhancements from increased gas diffusion. By using multiple replicate experiments, the sample-to-sample variation was large enough to obscure any differences in permeability and selectivity between the two types of MOF composites at low volume fractions. Application of the Maxwell model to extrapolate pure-MOF performance led to significant variations in predicted values, demonstrating the importance of collecting and reporting replicate experiments for membrane preparation and testing.

Abstract
Acetylene (C2H2) separation from multicomponent mixtures is vitally important but industrially challenging for the collection of high-purity C2H2. To address this requirement, the reaction between the alkaline-earth Ca2+ ions with a dicarboxylate-diazolate linker, 4,6-di(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)isophthalic acid (H4dtzip), gave rise to a new metal-organic framework (MOF) material [Ca(dtzip)0.5H2O]·2H2O (1). The material presents unique regular tubular channels based on threefolded helical rod-like secondary building units with rich open metal sites and exposed organic hydrogen-bonding N/O acceptors that enhance the interactions with C2H2 molecules, endowing significant selectivity for C2H2 over C2H4 (5.4), C2H6 (5.6), CH4 (30.0), and CO2 (7.7) at 298 K and 100 kPa. Column breakthrough experiments confirmed the extraordinary C2H2 separation performance of the material with the separation time intervals in the range of 18-24 min g-1 for binary (C2H2-C2H4, C2H2-C2H6, C2H2-CO2, and C2H2-CH4) or ternary (C2H2-C2H4-C2H6 and C2H2-C2H4-CO2) gas mixtures under dynamic conditions.

The need to reduce atmospheric CO2 concentrations necessitates CO2 capture technologies for conversion into stable products or long-term storage. A single pot solution that simultaneously captures and converts CO2 could minimize additional costs and energy demands associated with CO2 transport, compression, and transient storage. While a variety of reduction products exist, currently, only conversion to C2+ products including ethanol and ethylene are economically advantageous. Cu-based catalysts have the best-known performance for CO2 electroreduction to C2+ products. Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are touted for their carbon capture capacity. Thus, integrated Cu-based MOFs could be an ideal candidate for the one-pot capture and conversion. In this paper, we review Cu-based MOFs and MOF derivatives that have been used to synthesize C2+ products with the objective of understanding the mechanisms that enable synergistic capture and conversion. Furthermore, we discuss strategies based on the mechanistic insights that can be used to further enhance production. Finally, we discuss some of the challenges hindering widespread use of Cu-based MOFs and MOF derivatives along with possible solutions to overcome the challenges.

Abstract
The heat capacity of a material is a fundamental property of great practical importance. For example, in a carbon capture process, the heat required to regenerate a solid sorbent is directly related to the heat capacity of the material. However, for most materials suitable for carbon capture applications, the heat capacity is not known, and thus the standard procedure is to assume the same value for all materials. In this work, we developed a machine learning approach, trained on density functional theory simulations, to accurately predict the heat capacity of these materials, that is, zeolites, metal-organic frameworks and covalent-organic frameworks. The accuracy of our prediction is confirmed with experimental data. Finally, for a temperature swing adsorption process that captures carbon from the flue gas of a coal-fired power plant, we show that for some materials, the heat requirement is reduced by as much as a factor of two using the correct heat capacity.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks bearing coordinatively unsaturated Mg(II) sites are promising materials for gas storage, chemical separations, and drug delivery due to their low molecular weights and lack of toxicity. However, there remains a limited number of such MOFs reported in the literature. Herein, we investigate the gas sorption properties of the understudied framework Mg2(m-dobdc) (dobdc4- = 4,6-dioxido-1,3-benzenedicarboxylate) synthesized under both solvothermal and mechanochemical conditions. Both materials are found to be permanently porous, as confirmed by 77 K N2 adsorption measurements. In particular, Mg2(m-dobdc) synthesized under mechanochemical conditions using exogenous organic base displays one of the highest capacities reported to date (6.14 mmol/g) for CO2 capture in a porous solid under simulated coal flue gas conditions (150 mbar, 40 °C). As such, mechanochemically synthesized Mg2(m-dobdc) represents a promising new framework for applications requiring high gas adsorption capacities in a porous solid.

Abstract
Incorporating functionality into the framework of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has attracted substantial interest because the physical and chemical properties of MOFs can be tuned by functionalizing pores. The ligand functionalization of MOF-74 is challenging because of its pristine organic ligand and framework structure. Herein, we report a series of ligand-functionalized Ni-MOF-74 derivatives synthesized by defect engineering using a mixed-ligand approach. Defect generation and ligand functionalization of Ni-MOF-74 were simultaneously achieved by incorporation of fragmented organic ligands such as 5-formylsalicylic acid, 3-hydroxysalicylic acid, 2-hydroxynicotinic acid and 5-hydroxy-1H-benzimidazole-4-carboxylic acid. The resulting defect-engineered Ni-MOF-74 derivatives maintained relatively good crystallinity up to fragment incorporation levels of ∼20% and exhibited modified permanent porosity and CO2 adsorption properties depending on the functional groups and defect concentrations in the framework.

Abstract
Oxygen is a critical gas in numerous industries and is produced globally on a gigatonne scale, primarily through energy-intensive cryogenic distillation of air. The realization of large-scale adsorption-based air separations could enable a significant reduction in associated worldwide energy consumption and would constitute an important component of broader efforts to combat climate change. Certain small-scale air separations are carried out using N2-selective adsorbents, although the low capacities, poor selectivities, and high regeneration energies associated with these materials limit the extent of their usage. In contrast, the realization of O2-selective adsorbents may facilitate more widespread adoption of adsorptive air separations, which could enable the decentralization of O2 production and utilization and advance new uses for O2. Here, we present a detailed evaluation of the potential of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to serve as O2-selective adsorbents for air separations. Drawing insights from biological and molecular systems that selectively bind O2, we survey the field of O2-selective MOFs, highlighting progress and identifying promising areas for future exploration. As a guide for further research, the importance of moving beyond the traditional evaluation of O2 adsorption enthalpy, ΔH, is emphasized, and the free energy of O2 adsorption, ΔG, is discussed as the key metric for understanding and predicting MOF performance under practical conditions. Based on a proof-of-concept assessment of O2 binding carried out for eight different MOFs using experimentally derived capacities and thermodynamic parameters, we identify two existing materials and one proposed framework with nearly optimal ΔG values for operation under user-defined conditions. While enhancements are still needed in other material properties, the insights from the assessments herein serve as a guide for future materials design and evaluation. Computational approaches based on density functional theory with periodic boundary conditions are also discussed as complementary to experimental efforts, and new predictions enable identification of additional promising MOF systems for investigation.

Abstract
The ability to remove carbon dioxide from gaseous mixtures is a necessary step toward the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. As a contribution to this field of research, we performed a molecular dynamics study assessing the separation and adsorption properties of multi-layered graphtriyne membranes on gaseous mixtures of CO2, N2, and H2O. These mixtures closely resemble post-combustion gaseous products and are, therefore, suitable prototypes with which to model possible technological applications in the field of CO2 removal methodologies. The molecular dynamics simulations rely on a fairly accurate description of involved force fields, providing reliable predictions of selectivity and adsorption coefficients. The characterization of the interplay between molecules and membrane structure also permitted us to elucidate the adsorption and crossing processes at an atomistic level of detail. The work is intended as a continuation and a strong enhancement of the modeling research and characterization of such materials as molecular sieves for CO2 storage and removal.

Abstract
Direct conversion of diluted CO2 to value-added chemical stocks and fuels with solar energy is an energy-saving approach to relieve global warming and realize a carbon-neutral cycle. The exploration of catalysts with both efficient CO2 adsorption and reduction ability is significant to achieving this goal. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are emerging in the field of low-concentration CO2 reduction due to their highly tunable structure, high porosity, abundant active sites and excellent CO2 adsorption capacity. This highlight outlines the advantages of MOFs for low-pressure CO2 adsorption and the strategies to improve the photocatalytic performance of MOF materials at low CO2 concentrations, including the functionalization of organic ligands, regulation of metal nodes and preparation of MOF composites or derivatives. This paper aims to provide possible avenues for the rational design and development of catalysts with the ability to reduce low-concentration CO2 efficiently for practical applications.

Abstract
The capture and fixation of CO2 under mild conditions is a cost-effective route to reduce greenhouse gases, but it is challenging because of the low conversion and selectivity issues. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising in the fields of adsorption and catalysis because of their structural tunability and variability. However, the precise structural design of MOFs is always pursued and elusive. In this work, a metal-mixed MOF (SNNU-97-InV) was designed by precisely introducing single vanadium site into the isostructural In-MOF (SNNU-97-In). The single V sites clearly change the interactions between the MOF framework and CO2 molecules, leading to a 71.3% improvement in the CO2 adsorption capacity. At the same time, the enhanced light absorption enables SNNU-97-InV to efficiently convert CO2 into cyclic carbonates (CCs) with epoxides under illumination. Controlled experiments showed that the promoted performance of SNNU-97-InV may be that the V═O site can more easily combine with CO2 and convert them into an intermediate state under illumination, and the possible mechanism was thus speculated.

Abstract
Diamine-functionalized M2(dobpdc) (M = Mg, Mn, Fe, Co, Zn) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are growing class of crystalline solids currently being intensively investigated for carbon capture, as they exhibit a novel cooperative and selective CO2 absorption mechanism and a step-shaped isotherm. To understand their CO2 adsorption behavior, ab initio calculations with near-chemical accuracy are required. Here, we present DFT calculations of CO2 adsorption in m-2-m-Zn2(dobpdc) with different exchange-correlation functionals, including semilocal functionals (PBE and two revised PBE functionals), semiempirical pairwise corrections (D3 and TS), nonlocal van der Waals correlation functionals (vdW-optB88, vdW-DF1, vdW-DF2, vdW-DF2-B86R, vdW-DF-cx, and revised VV10), and a meta-GGA (SCAN). Overall, we find that revPBE+D3 and RPBE+D3 show the best balance of performance for both the lattice parameters and the CO2 binding enthalpy of m-2-m-Zn2(dobpdc). The superior performance of revPBE+D3 and RPBE+D3 is sustained for the formation enthalpy and the lattice parameters of ammonium carbamate, a primary product of the cooperative CO2 insertion in diamine-functionalized M2(dobpdc) MOFs. Moreover, we find that their performance is derived from their larger repulsive exchange contributions to the CO2 binding enthalpy than the other functionals at the relevant range of reduced density gradient value for the energetics of CO2 adsorption in the m-2-m-Zn2(dobpdc) MOF. The results of our benchmarking study can help guide the further development of versatile vdW-corrected DFT methods with predictive accuracy.

Abstract
The synthesis of MOF-74 (MOF = metal-organic framework) proceeds first through the generation of chemically and topologically distinct materials, referred to as phases, displaying exclusively carboxylate coordination, followed by further deprotonation to enable oxo coordination and MOF-74 formation. The synthesis of Mg-MOF-74 at high concentrations of linker and metal enables the stabilization and characterization of the previously unobserved, exclusively carboxylate coordinating phases. Ex situ and in situ approaches are leveraged to provide the time-resolved observation of Mg-MOF-74 synthesis and the formation of phases that precede Mg-MOF-74 formation as well as metastable phase dissolution. These data support dissolution and redeposition as the mechanism of MOF-74 formation and provide insight into the formation mechanism of MOFs with multiple linker coordination types.

Computational Screening of Metal-Organic Frameworks for Ethylene Purification from Ethane/Ethylene/Acetylene Mixture. NANOMATERIALS 2022; 12:nano12050869. [PMID: 35269357 PMCID: PMC8912675 DOI: 10.3390/nano12050869] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2022] [Revised: 02/16/2022] [Accepted: 03/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
Identification of high-performing sorbent materials is the key step in developing energy-efficient adsorptive separation processes for ethylene production. In this work, a computational screening of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for the purification of ethylene from the ternary ethane/ethylene/acetylene mixture under thermodynamic equilibrium conditions is conducted. Modified evaluation metrics are proposed for an efficient description of the performance of MOFs for the ternary mixture separation. Two different separation schemes are proposed and potential MOF adsorbents are identified accordingly. Finally, the relationships between the MOF structural characteristics and its adsorption properties are discussed, which can provide valuable information for optimal MOF design.

Abstract
Metal-organic framework-808 has been functionalized with 11 amino acids (AA) to produce a series of MOF-808-AA structures. The adsorption of CO2 under flue gas conditions revealed that glycine- and dl-lysine-functionalized MOF-808 (MOF-808-Gly and -dl-Lys) have the highest uptake capacities. Enhanced CO2 capture performance in the presence of water was observed and studied by using single-component sorption isotherms, CO2/H2O binary isotherm, and dynamic breakthrough measurements. The key to the favorable performance was uncovered by deciphering the mechanism of CO2 capture in the pores and attributed to the formation of bicarbonate as evidenced by 13C and 15N solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy studies. On the basis of these results, we examined the performance of MOF-808-Gly in simulated coal flue gas conditions and found that it is possible to capture and release CO2 by vacuum swing adsorption. MOF-808-Gly was cycled at least 80 times with full retention of performance. This study significantly advances our understanding of CO2 chemistry in MOFs by revealing how strongly bound amine moieties to the MOF backbone create the chemistry and environment within the pores, leading to the binding and release of CO2 under mild conditions without application of heat.

Abstract
The enormous structural and chemical diversity of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) forces researchers to actively use simulation techniques as often as experiments. MOFs are widely known for their outstanding adsorption properties, so a precise description of the host-guest interactions is essential for high-throughput screening aimed at ranking the most promising candidates. However, highly accurate ab initio calculations cannot be routinely applied to model thousands of structures due to the demanding computational costs. Furthermore, methods based on force field (FF) parametrization suffer from low transferability. To resolve this accuracy-efficiency dilemma, we applied a machine learning (ML) approach: extreme gradient boosting. The trained models reproduced the atom-in-material quantities, including partial charges, polarizabilities, dispersion coefficients, quantum Drude oscillator, and electron cloud parameters, with accuracy similar to the reference data set. The aforementioned FF precursors make it possible to thoroughly describe noncovalent interactions typical for MOF-adsorbate systems: electrostatic, dispersion, polarization, and short-range repulsion. The presented approach can also readily facilitate hybrid atomistic simulation/ML workflows.

Abstract
A copper-based metal-organic framework, [Cu2(PBTDA)(H2O)2] (UTSA-98, UTSA = the University of Texas at San Antonio; H4PBTDA = 5',5''''-(1,4-phenylene)bis([1,1':3',1″-terphenyl]-4,4″-dicarboxylic acid)), has been solvothermally synthesized. The alternative connection of classical dicopper secondary building units and deprotonated four-branched PBTDA4- ligands led to the formation of the three-dimensional framework of UTSA-98 with one-dimensional rhombic channels. Its guest-free phase, UTSA-98a, uptakes much more C2H2 (82.6 cm3/g) than CO2 (40.3 cm3/g) at 298 K and 100 kPa, resulting in a high adsorption selectivity of 5.2. Furthermore, the efficient separation ability of UTSA-98a toward the C2H2/CO2 gas mixture was further verified by laboratory-scale fixed-bed breakthrough experiments.

Abstract
Integrating other metal ions into mono-metallic metal-organic framework (MOF) to form bi-metallic MOF is an effective strategy to enhance the performance of MOFs from the internal structure. In this study, two-dimensional (2D) cobalt/zinc-porphyrin (Co/Zn-TCPP) MOF nanomaterials with different Co/Zn molar ratios were synthesised using a simple surfactant-assisted method, and novel dopamine (DA) sensing methods were constructed based on these materials. The characterisation results showed that all MOF with different Co/Zn molar ratios presented a nanofilm, and the Co and Zn elements were uniformly distributed. All sensors based on CoxZn100-x-TCPP had a certain catalytic performance to DA. Among them, the sensor based on CO25Zn75-TCPP showed the strongest signal response, indicating that the catalytic performance of MOF on DA can be adjusted by changing the Co/Zn molar ratio. The doping of metal ions improves the chemical environment of the pores, and increases the types and spatial arrangement of the active sites of the MOF, which is beneficial to the electron transfer and exchange with DA; Co2+ and Zn2+ active centres have a synergistic promotion effect, so the catalytic activity of MOF is significantly improved. The linear range at the potential of 0.1 V based on Co25Zn75-TCPP for DA was 5 nM-177.8 μM, with a detection limit of 1.67 nM (S/N = 3). The sensor exhibited a good selectivity for detecting DA. This research is expected to provide new ideas and references for constructing high-performance sensing interfaces and platforms.

Abstract
Efficient delivery of reactive and toxic gaseous reagents to organic reactions was studied using metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Simultaneous cargo vehicle and catalytic capabilities of several MOFs were probed for the first time using the examples of aromatization, aminocarbonylation, and carbonylative Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions. These reactions highlight that MOFs can serve a dual role as a gas cargo vehicle and a catalyst, leading to product formation with yields similar to reactions employing pure gases. Furthermore, the MOFs can be recycled without sacrificing product yield, while simultaneously maintaining crystallinity. The reported findings were supported crystallographically and spectroscopically (e.g., diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy), foreshadowing a pathway for the development of multifunctional MOF-based reagent-catalyst cargo vessels for reactive reagents, as an attractive alternative to the use of toxic pure gases or gas generators.
