Abstract
Ultramicroporous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are demonstrated to be advantageous for the separation and purification of light hydrocarbons such as C2H2, C2H4, and CH4. The introduction of transition metal sites with strong π-complexation affinity into MOFs is more effective than other adsorption sites for the selective adsorption of π-electron-rich unsaturated hydrocarbon gases from their mixtures. However, lower coordination numbers make it challenging to produce robust MOFs directly utilizing metal ions with π-coordination activity, such as Cu+, Ag+, and Pd2+. Herein, a series of novel π-complexing MOFs (SNNU-33s) with a pore size of 4.6 Å are precisely constructed by cleverly introducing symmetrically matched C3-type [Cu(pyz)3] (pyz = pyrazine) coordinated fragments into 1D hexagonal channels of MIL-88 prototype frameworks. Benifit from the spatial confinement combined with π-complex-active Cu+ of [Cu(pyz)3], pore-space-partitioned SNNU-33 MOFs all present excellent C2H2/CH4, C2H4/CH4, and CO2/CH4 separation ability. Notably, the optimized SNNU-33b adsorbent demonstrates top-level IAST selectivity values for C2H2/CH4 (597.4) and C2H4/CH4 (69.8), as well as excellent breakthrough performance. Theoretical calculations further reveal that such benchmark light hydrocarbon separation and purification ability is mainly ascribed to the extra-strong binding affinity between Cu+ and π-electron donor molecules via a spatially confined π-complexation process.

Abstract
Herein, we used the 4-fluoro-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3,4',5-tricarboxylic acid (H3fbptc) ligand to design and construct a new metal-organic framework (MOF), [Cu3(fbptc)2(H2O)3]·3NMP (1), which possesses rich accessible metal sites and F functional groups in the porous walls and shows high uptake for C2H2 (119.3 cm3 g-1) and significant adsorption selectivity for C2H2 over CH4 (14.4) and CO2 (3.6) at 298 K and 100 kPa. In particular, for the gas mixtures of C2H2-CH4 and C2H2-CO2, the MOF reveals large breakthrough time ratios (C2H2/CH4 = 13, C2H2/CO2 = 5.9), which are particularly prominent in dynamic breakthrough experiments, also confirming the excellent potential for the practical separation of C2H2 from two-component mixtures (C2H2-CH4 and C2H2-CO2) and even three-component mixtures (C2H2-CO2-CH4).

Abstract
Efficient separation of acetylene from a ternary acetylene-containing mixture is an important and vital task in petrochemical industry, which is difficult to achieve using a single material. Herein, a new Ca2+-based metal-organic framework (MOF) [Ca(dtztp)0.5(DMA)]·2H2O (1) was constructed using the N,O-donor ligand 2,5-di(2H-tetrazol-5-yl)terephthalic acid and the less-studied alkaline earth Ca2+ ions. The MOF shows a 3D honeycomb framework based on unique metal-carboxylate-azolate rod secondary building units. Owing to the presence of high-density organic hydrogen-bonding acceptors and open metal sites (OMSs), the activated MOF shows high adsorption capacity for C2H2 and selectivity for C2H2 over CO2, C2H4, C2H6, and CH4. Dynamic breakthrough experiments indicated the actual C2H2 separation potential of the MOF from binary (C2H2-C2H4 and C2H2-CO2) and ternary (C2H2-C2H4-CO2 and C2H2-C2H4-C2H6) mixtures. Simulations revealed that the synergistic interactions between the OMSs and N atoms in MOF and C2H2 molecules play an important role in the separation of C2H2.

Abstract
Efficient gas separation and purification play a vital role in the current advanced development of industry, and the application of MOF adsorbents in this area with highly technical materials shows obvious advantages. On the basis of reticular chemistry, the 4-c lvt MOF adsorbent [CuDTTA]·3DMF·CH3CN has been constructed (CuDTTA; H2DTTA = 2,5-bis(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)terephthalic acid). CuDTTA reveals a multiple-micropore system and high-density active sites decorated on the channel surfaces, which are conducive to its extraordinary selectivity of CO2/CH4 and C2H2/CH4 (29 and 166, 1:1). In combination with an analysis of Qst values, CuDTTA possesses the synergistic effect of size sieving and abundant functional sites, significantly improving the gas adsorption and separation performance. Meanwhile, the results also reveal that functional sites have a stronger binding affinity toward C2H2 with respect to CO2. Such a conclusion renders CuDTTA to be a promising adsorbent material for industrial applications.

Abstract
The high storage capacity versus high selectivity trade-off barrier presents a daunting challenge to practical application as an acetylene (C2 H2 ) adsorbent. A structure-performance relationship screening for sixty-two high-performance metal-organic framework adsorbents reveals that a moderate pore size distribution around 5.0-7.5 Å is critical to fulfill this task. A precise pore space partition approach was involved to partition 1D hexagonal channels of typical MIL-88 architecture into finite segments with pore sizes varying from 4.5 Å (SNNU-26) to 6.4 Å (SNNU-27), 7.1 Å (SNNU-28), and 8.1 Å (SNNU-29). Coupled with bare tetrazole N sites (6 or 12 bare N sites within one cage) as high-density H-bonding acceptors for C2 H2 , the target MOFs offer a good combination of high C2 H2 /CO2 adsorption selectivity and high C2 H2 uptake capacity in addition to good stability. The optimized SNNU-27-Fe material demonstrates a C2 H2 uptake of 182.4 cm3 g-1 and an extraordinary C2 H2 /CO2 dynamic breakthrough time up to 91 min g-1 under ambient conditions.

Abstract
Separation or purification is one of the difficult problems in the petrochemical industry. To help solve the difficulty of separation or purification for C2H2/CO2 and C2Hn/CH4 in the chemical industry, we synthesized a new metal-organic framework (MOF), [Ni(dpip)]·2.5DMF·H2O (1), by a bipyridyl-substituted isophthalic acid ligand. The MOF includes two types of one-dimensional (1D) tubular channels with different sizes and porous environments. The unique tubular channels lead to not only remarkable gas sorption capacity of C2H4, C2H2, and CO2, but also good selectivity for C2H2/CH4, C2H2/CH4, CO2/CH4, and C2H2/CO2, as demonstrated by single-component sorption isotherm results, ideal adsorbed solution theory calculations, and dynamic breakthrough curves. Grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulation reveals preferential adsorption sites in the MOF for CO2, C2H2, and C2H4. The MOF also exhibits an obvious size-selective absorption effect on vapor molecules.

Abstract
Two new CdII MOFs, namely, two-dimensional (2D) poly[[[μ2-1,4-bis(1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)butane](μ2-heptanedioato)cadmium(II)] tetrahydrate], {[Cd(C7H10O4)(C18H18N4)]·4H2O}n or {[Cd(Pim)(bbimb)]·4H2O}n (1), and 2D poly[diaqua[μ2-1,4-bis(1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)butane](μ4-decanedioato)(μ2-decanedioato)dicadmium(II)], [Cd2(C10H16O4)2(C18H18N4)(H2O)2]n or [Cd(Seb)(bbimb)0.5(H2O)]n (2), have been synthesized hydrothermally based on the 1,4-bis(1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)butane (bbimb) and pimelate (Pim2-, heptanedioate) or sebacate (Seb2-, decanedioate) ligands. Both MOFs were structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In 1, the CdII centres are connected by bbimb and Pim2- ligands to generate a 2D sql layer structure with an octameric (H2O)8 water cluster. The 2D layers are further connected by O-H...O hydrogen bonds, resulting in a three-dimensional (3D) supramolecular structure. In 2, the CdII centres are coordinated by Seb2- ligands to form binuclear Cd2 units which are linked by bbimb and Seb2- ligands into a 2D hxl layer. The 2D layers are further connected by O-H...O hydrogen bonds, leading to an 8-connected 3D hex supramolecular network. IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and solid-state photoluminescence analysis were carried out on both MOFs. Luminescence sensing experiments reveal that both MOFs have good selective sensing towards Fe3+ in aqueous solution.

Abstract
Crystal engineering, the field of chemistry that studies the design, properties, and applications of crystals, is exemplified by the emergence over the past thirty years of porous coordination networks (PCNs), including metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and hybrid coordination networks (HCNs). PCNs have now come of age thanks to their amenability to design from first principles and how this in turn can result in new materials with task-specific features. Herein, we focus upon how control over the pore chemistry and pore size of PCNs has been leveraged to create a new generation of physisorbents for efficient purification of light hydrocarbons (LHs). The impetus for this research comes from the need to address LH purification processes based upon cryogenic separation, distillation, chemisorption or solvent extraction, each of which is energy intensive. Adsorptive separation by physisorbents (in general) and PCNs (in particular) can offer two advantages over these existing approaches: improved energy efficiency; lower plant size/cost. Unfortunately, most existing physisorbents suffer from low uptake and/or poor sorbate selectivity and are therefore unsuitable for trace separations of LHs including the high volume C2 LHs (C2Hx, x = 2, 4, 6). This situation is rapidly changing thanks to PCN sorbents that have set new performance benchmarks for several C2 separations. Herein, we review and analyse PCN sorbents with respect to the supramolecular chemistry of sorbent-sorbate binding and detail the crystal engineering approaches that have enabled the exquisite control over pore size and pore chemistry that affords highly selective binding sites. Whereas the structure-function relationships that have emerged offer important design principles, several development roadblocks remain to be overcome.
