Abstract
- To develop efficient adsorbent materials for storage and separation of C2H2, an unprecedented supercage MOF, [Me2NH2]⋅[Zn3(ALP)(TDC)2.5]⋅3.5DMF⋅2 H2O (1) was constructed through medicinal molecule allopurinol (ALP) and S‐containing 2,5‐thiophenedicarboxylic acid (H2TDC). 1 contains a novel linear trinuclear cluster that is composed by ALP and carboxylates and forms a final uncommon 5‐connected yfy topological framework. The framework possesses three types of interlinked cages decorated by rich functional sites, and reveals not only high adsorption capacity for C2H2 but also excellent selective separation for C2H2/CO2 and C2H2/CH4 at 298 K. Dynamic breakthrough experiments on C2H2/CO2 (1:1) mixture and C2H2/CH4 (1:1) mixture also demonstrated the potential of the material to separate C2H2 from CO2 or CH4 mixtures. Molecular simulations were also studied to identify the different CO2‐ and C2H2‐ binding sites in 1, such as carboxylate groups, S atoms and carbonyl groups. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
