A flexible metal-organic framework with double interpenetration for highly selective CO2 capture at room temperature

A flexible metal-organic framework of 1a Cu(FMA)(4,4'-Bpe)0.5(FMA=fumarate; 4,4'-Bpe=trans-bis-(4-pyridyl)ethylene) that exhibits guest molecule-controlled gate-opening adsorption has been reported, in which the flexible pores can be enlarged by CO_2 molecules rather than CH_4 and N_2 under a certain gate-opening pressure. The CO_2 uptake can be sharply improved from 6.85cm~3 g~(–1) at 0.60 atm to 33.7 cm~3 g~(–1) at 1 atm due to the gate-opening effect, thus resulting in the notably enhanced adsorption selectivities for CO_2/CH_4(32:1, v/v) and CO_2/N_2(48:1, v/v) separations at room temperature.

Synthesis,characterization and computational study of 1D-MOFs of Co (II)

Two new metal–organic frameworks {[Co(pBrBz)(H₂O)₂](pBrBz)(H₂O)} _n (1) and {[Co(pBrBz)₂(pBrBzH)(4,4′-bpy)]} _n (2) (4,4′-bpy=4,4′-bipyridine; pBrBzH=p-bromobenzoic acid) have been synthesized by solvothermal method and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis.

The thermal decomposition of both complexes has been investigated and shows a long-range temperature stability. DFT calculations carried out on ligands are schematically illustrating the nature of solid-state architecture of (2).

Synthesis,Crystal Structures,and Photoluminescence of Lanthanide Coordination Polymers with 4‐Acetamidobenzoate

The reactions of Ln(NO₃)₃ · 6H₂O and 4‐acetamidobenzoic acid (Haba) with 4,4′‐bipyridine (4,4′‐bpy) in ethanol solution resulted in three new lanthanide coordination polymers, namely {[Ln(aba)₃(H₂O)₂] · 0.5(4,4′‐bpy) · 2H₂O}_∞ [Ln = Sm ( 1 ), Gd ( 2 ), and Er ( 3 ), aba = 4‐acetamidobenzoate]. Compounds 1 – 3 are isomorphous and have one‐dimensional chains bridged by four aba anions. 4,4′‐Bipyridine molecules don’t take part in the coordination with Ln^III ions and occur in the lattice as guest molecules. Moreover, the adjacent 1D chains in the complex are further linked through numerous N–H ··· O and O–H ··· O hydrogen bonds to form a 3D supramolecular network. In addition, complex 1 in the solid state shows characteristic emission in the visible region at room temperature.     

Syntheses,crystal structures and magnetic properties of complexes based on [Ni(L-L)3]2+ complex cations with dimethylderivatives of 2,2′-bipyridine and TCNQ

From the aqueous-methanolic systems Ni(NO₃)₂ – LiTCNQ – 5,5′-dmbpy and Ni(NO₃)₂ – LiTCNQ – 4,4′-dmbpy three novel complexes [Ni(5,5′-dmbpy)₃](TCNQ)₂ (1), [Ni(4,4′-dmbpy)₃](TCNQ)₂ (2) and [Ni(4,4′-dmbpy)₃]₂(TCNQ-TCNQ)(TCNQ)₂∙0.60H₂O (3), were isolated in single crystal form. The new compounds were identified using chemical analyses and IR spectroscopy. Single crystal studies of all samples corroborated their compositions and have shown that their ionic structures contain the complex cations [Ni(5,5′-dmbpy)]²⁺ (1) or [Ni(4,4′-dmbpy)]²⁺ (2 and 3). The anionic parts of the respective crystal structures 1–3 are formed by TCNQ^⋅- anion-radicals and in 3 also by a σ-dimerized dianion (TCNQ-TCNQ)^2- with a C-C distance of 1.663(5) Å. The supramolecular structures are governed by weak hydrogen bonding interactions. The variable-temperature (2–300 K) magnetic studies of 1 and 3 confirmed the presence of magnetically active Ni(II) atoms with S = 1 and TCNQ^⋅- anion-radicals with S = 1/2 while the (TCNQ-TCNQ)^2- dianion is magnetically silent. The magnetic behavior was described by a complex magnetic model assuming strong antiferromagnetic interactions between some TCNQ^⋅- anion-radicals.

By changing the ancillary ligands, three new zinc-based coordination polymers (CPs), {[Zn(4,4′-bpy)(H₂O)₄]·(TDC)·(H₂O)}_n (1), [Zn(2,2′-dmbpy)(TDC)]_n (2), and [Zn₂(3,3′-dmbpy)(TDC)₂]_n (3) (H₂TDC =2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid, 4,4′-bpy =4,4′-bipyridine, 2,2′-dmbpy =2,2′-dimethyl-4,4′-bipyridine, 3,3′-dmbpy =3,3′-dimethyl-4,4′-bipyridine) have been synthesized under the same reaction conditions (H₂O, pH =7–8, and 140°C) and were structurally characterized. 1 is a linear chain structure and further connected into a 3-D structure through hydrogen bonds. 2 shows a 2-D (4,4) network when the dinuclear [Zn₂(COO)₄N₂] building unit is regarded as a six-connected node. 3 has a twofold-interpenetrating 3-D zinc-organic framework pcu topology. Furthermore, 1–3 show strong photoluminescence at room temperature in the solid state, and the catalytic activities of 1–3 for degradation of methyl orange in a Fenton-like process have been investigated. The results suggest that the ancillary ligands influence the final resulting CPs.

The assembly of POM-induced inorganic–organic hybrids based on copper ions and mixed ligands

Three inorganic–organic hybrid materials based on Keggin-type polyoxometalates (POMs), [Cu^II₂(phen)₂(4,4′-bipy)(H4,4′-bipy)₂(H₂O)₂][PMo₁₂O₄₀]₂·2H₂O (1), [Cu^II(phen)₂(H4,4′bipy)][PW₁₂O₄₀]·H₂O (2), and [Cu^II₂(phen)₂(4,4′-bipy)(BW₁₂O₄₀)(H₂O)₂](H₂4,4′-bipy)_0.5·3H₂O (3) (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, 4,4′-bipy = 4,4′-bipyridine), were synthesized using different POMs in the hydrothermal conditions. Compounds 1–3 were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, IR spectra, elemental analyses, powder X-ray diffraction analyses, and thermogravimetric analyses. Compound 1 presents a two-dimensional (2-D) network containing the Keggin-type [PMo₁₂O₄₀]^3? anion and dinuclear metal–organic units [Cu^II₂(phen)₂(4,4′-bipy)(H4,4′-bipy)₂(H₂O)₂]³⁺. Compound 2 is a 2-D architecture constructed from a [PW₁₂O₄₀]^3? and mononuclear metal–organic units [Cu^II(phen)₂(H4,4′-bipy)]³⁺. In 3, the [BW₁₂O₄₀]^5? anions link [Cu^II₂(phen)₂(4,4′-bipy)] units to form a one-dimensional (1-D) chain [Cu^II₂(phen)₂(4,4′-bipy)(BW₁₂O₄₀)(H₂O)₂]; the 1-D chain connects with protonated 4,4′-bipy ligands and lattice waters, yielding a 2-D layer. Fluorescence spectra, UV–vis spectra, and electrochemical properties of 1–3 have been investigated.     

New polymer syntheses. LXXXII. Syntheses of poly(ether-sulfone)s from silylated aliphatic diols including chiral monomers

Attempts were made to synthesize poly(ether-sulfone)s from aliphatic diols or bissilylated diols on the one hand, and 4,4′-dichlorodiphenylsulfone or 4,4′-difluorodiphenylsulfone on the other hand. The reaction conditions and the catalyst were varied. Polycondensations of silylated diols with 4,4′-difluorodiphenylsulfone and powdered K₂ CO₃ in N-methylpyr-rolidone proved to give the best results. Using silylated isosorbide and isomannide as mono-mers chiral poly(ether-sulfone)s were prepared. GPC measurements indicate weight-average molecular weights in the range of 27×10³–200×10³. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Engineered Bifunctional Luminescent Pillared-Layer Frameworks for Adsorption of CO2 and Sensitive Detection of Nitrobenzene in Aqueous Media

Through a dual-ligand synthetic approach, five isoreticular primitive cubic (pcu)-type pillared-layer metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), [Zn₂(dicarboxylate)₂(NI-bpy-44)] ⋅ x DMF ⋅ y H₂O, in which dicarboxylate=1,4-bdc ( 1 ), Br-1,4-bdc ( 2 ), NH₂-1,4-bdc ( 3 ), 2,6-ndc ( 4 ), and bpdc ( 5 ), have been engineered. MOFs 1 – 5 feature twofold degrees of interpenetration and have open pores of 27.0, 33.6, 36.8, 52.5, and 62.1 %, respectively. Nitrogen adsorption isotherms of activated MOFs 1′ – 5′ at 77 K all displayed type I adsorption behavior, suggesting their microporous nature. Although 1′ and 3′ – 5′ exhibited type I adsorption isotherms of CO₂ at 195 K, MOF 2′ showed a two-step gate-opening sorption isotherm of CO₂. Furthermore, MOF 3′ also had a significant influence of amine functions on CO₂ uptake at high temperature due to the CO₂–framework interactions. MOFs 1 – 5 revealed solvent-dependent fluorescence properties; their strong blue-light emissions in aqueous suspensions were efficiently quenched by trace amounts of nitrobenzene (NB), with limits of detection of 4.54, 5.73, 1.88, 2.30, and 2.26 μm , respectively, and Stern–Volmer quenching constants (K_sv) of 2.93×10³, 1.79×10³, 3.78×10³, 4.04×10³, and 3.21×10³ m ⁻¹, respectively. Of particular note, the NB-included framework, NB@ 3 , provided direct evidence of the binding sites, which showed strong host–guest π–π and hydrogen-bonding interactions beneficial for donor–acceptor electron transfer and resulting in fluorescence quenching.

Final R-values were 0.075 and 0.083 for 1 and 2, respectively. In the molecules of the complexes, Co(II) or Mn(II) cation is coordinated by two O-atoms of two 4,4′-dpdo ligands, two terminal N-atoms of two dicyanamides, and two O-atoms of water molecules. The crystals are molecular, with adjacent complex molecules linked through a system of O-H...N and O-H...O hydrogen bonds.     

CdII 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-phenyl-1,3-butandione complexes of 1,10-phenanthroline and 4,4′-bipyridine

The self-assembly of Cd(L)(TFPB)₂ complexes, (L?=?phen or 4,4′-bipy) is caused by C–H?···?F–C, and π–π stacking interactions.
