A significant change in selective adsorption behaviour for ethanol by flexibility control through the type of central metals in a metal-organic framework
Closed-open structural transformations in flexible metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are of interest for potential applications such as separation, because of their complete selectivity for the adsorption of specific guest molecules. Here, we report the control of the adsorption behaviour in a series of flexible MOFs, (H2dab)[M2(ox)3] (H2dab = 1, 4-diammoniumbutane, M = Fe, Co, Ni, Zn, or Mg), having different central metals with analogous crystal structures. We found that a significant change in the selective adsorption behaviour for EtOH over MeCHO and MeCN is caused by the type of central metals, without changes in the crystal structures of all phases (except the Ni compound). A systematic study of adsorption measurements and structural analyses of the analogous MOFs reveals for the first time that the framework flexibility around the central metals of MOFs is truly related to the selective adsorption behaviour
Proton Conductivity Control by Ion Substitution in a Highly Proton-Conductive Metal–Organic Framework
Proton conductivity through two-dimensional
(2-D) hydrogen-bonding
networks within a layered metal–organic framework (MOF) (NH<sub>4</sub>)<sub>2</sub>(H<sub>2</sub>adp)[Zn<sub>2</sub>(ox)<sub>3</sub>]·3H<sub>2</sub>O (H<sub>2</sub>adp = adipic acid; ox = oxalate)
has been successfully controlled by cation substitution. We synthesized
a cation-substituted MOF, K<sub>2</sub>(H<sub>2</sub>adp)[Zn<sub>2</sub>(ox)<sub>3</sub>]·3H<sub>2</sub>O, where the ammonium ions in
a well-defined hydrogen-bonding network are substituted with non-hydrogen-bonding
potassium ions, without any apparent change in the crystal structure.
We successfully controlled the proton conductivity by cleavage of
the hydrogen bonds in a proton-conducting pathway, showing that the
2-D hydrogen-bonding networks in the MOF truly contribute to the high
proton conductivity. This is the first example of the control of proton
conductivity by ion substitution in a well-defined hydrogen-bonding
network within a MOF
Support Effect of Metal-Organic Frameworks on Ethanol Production through Acetic Acid Hydrogenation
We present a systematic study on the support effect of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), regarding substrate adsorption. A remarkable enhancement of both catalytic activity and selectivity for the ethanol (EtOH) production reaction through acetic acid (AcOH) hydrogenation (AH) was observed on Pt nanoparticles supported on MOFs. The systematic study on catalysis using homogeneously loaded Pt catalysts, in direct contact with seven different MOF supports (MIL-125-NH2, UiO-66-NH2, HKUST-1, MIL-101, Zn-MOF-74, Mg-MOF-74, and MIL-121) (abbreviated as Pt/MOFs), found that MOFs having a high affinity for the AcOH substrate (UiO-66-NH2 and MIL-125-NH2) showed high catalytic activity for AH. This is the first demonstration indicating that the adsorption ability of MOFs directly accelerates catalytic performance using the direct contact between the metal and the MOF. In addition, Pt/MIL-125-NH2 showed a remarkably high EtOH yield (31% at 200 degrees C) in a fixed-bed flow reactor, which was higher by a factor of more than 8 over that observed for Pt/TiO2, which was the best Pt-based catalyst for this reaction. Infrared spectroscopy and a theoretical study suggested that the MIL-125-NH2 support plays an important role in high EtOH selectivity by suppressing the formation of the byproduct, ethyl acetate (AcOEt), due to its relatively weak adsorption behavior for EtOH rather than AcOH
Proton-Conductive Magnetic Metal–Organic Frameworks, {NR<sub>3</sub>(CH<sub>2</sub>COOH)}[M<sub>a</sub><sup>II</sup>M<sub>b</sub><sup>III</sup>(ox)<sub>3</sub>]: Effect of Carboxyl Residue upon Proton Conduction
Proton-conductive magnetic metal–organic frameworks (MOFs),
{NR<sub>3</sub>(CH<sub>2</sub>COOH)}[M<sub>a</sub><sup>II</sup>M<sub>b</sub><sup>III</sup>(ox)<sub>3</sub>] (abbreviated as <b>R–M</b><sub><b>a</b></sub><b>M</b><sub><b>b</b></sub>:
R = ethyl (Et), <i>n</i>-butyl (Bu); M<sub>a</sub>M<sub>b</sub> = MnCr, FeCr, FeFe) have been studied. The following six
MOFs were prepared: <b>Et–MnCr</b>·2H<sub>2</sub>O, <b>Et–FeCr</b>·2H<sub>2</sub>O, <b>Et–FeFe</b>·2H<sub>2</sub>O, <b>Bu–MnCr</b>, <b>Bu–FeCr</b>, and <b>Bu–FeFe</b>. The structure of <b>Bu–MnCr</b> was determined by X-ray crystallography. Crystal data: trigonal, <i>R</i>3<i>c</i> (#161), <i>a</i> = 9.3928(13)
Å, <i>c</i> = 51.0080(13) Å, <i>Z</i> = 6. The crystal consists of oxalate-bridged bimetallic layers interleaved
by {NBu<sub>3</sub>(CH<sub>2</sub>COOH)}<sup>+</sup> ions. <b>Et–MnCr</b>·2H<sub>2</sub>O and <b>Bu–MnCr</b> (R–MnCr
MOFs) show a ferromagnetic ordering with <i>T</i><sub>C</sub> of 5.5–5.9 K, and <b>Et–FeCr</b>·2H<sub>2</sub>O and <b>Bu–FeCr</b> (R–FeCr MOFs) also
show a ferromagnetic ordering with <i>T</i><sub>C</sub> of
11.0–11.5 K. <b>Et–FeFe</b>·2H<sub>2</sub>O and <b>Bu–FeFe</b> (R–FeFe MOFs) belong to
the class II of mixed-valence compounds and show the magnetism characteristic
of Néel N-type ferrimagnets. The Et-MOFs (<b>Et–MnCr</b>·2H<sub>2</sub>O, <b>Et–FeCr</b>·2H<sub>2</sub>O and <b>Et–FeFe</b>·2H<sub>2</sub>O) show high
proton conduction, whereas the Bu–MOFs (<b>Bu–MnCr</b>, <b>Bu–FeCr</b>, and <b>Bu–FeFe</b>) show
moderate proton conduction. Together with water adsorption isotherm
studies, the significance of the carboxyl residues as proton carriers
is revealed. The R–MnCr MOFs and the R–FeCr MOFs are
rare examples of coexistent ferromagnetism and proton conduction,
and the R–FeFe MOFs are the first examples of coexistent Néel
N-type ferrimagnetism and proton conduction
Promotion of Low-Humidity Proton Conduction by Controlling Hydrophilicity in Layered Metal–Organic Frameworks
We controlled the hydrophilicity of metal–organic
frameworks
(MOFs) to achieve high proton conductivity and high adsorption of
water under low humidity conditions, by employing novel class of MOFs,
{NR<sub>3</sub>(CH<sub>2</sub>COOH)}[MCr(ox)<sub>3</sub>]·<i>n</i>H<sub>2</sub>O (abbreviated as <b>R-MCr</b>, where
R = Me (methyl), Et (ethyl), or Bu (<i>n</i>-butyl), and
M = Mn or Fe): <b>Me-FeCr</b>, <b>Et-MnCr</b>, <b>Bu-MnCr</b>, and <b>Bu-FeCr</b>. The cationic components have a carboxyl
group that functions as the proton carrier. The hydrophilicity of
the cationic ions was tuned by the NR<sub>3</sub> residue to decrease
with increasing bulkiness of the residue: {NMe<sub>3</sub>(CH<sub>2</sub>COOH)}<sup>+</sup> > {NEt<sub>3</sub>(CH<sub>2</sub>COOH)}<sup>+</sup> > {NBu<sub>3</sub>(CH<sub>2</sub>COOH)}<sup>+</sup>. The
proton conduction of the MOFs increased with increasing hydrophilicity
of the cationic ions. The most hydrophilic sample, <b>Me-FeCr</b>, adsorbed a large number of water molecules and showed a high proton
conductivity of ∼10<sup>–4</sup> S cm<sup>–1</sup>, even at a low humidity of 65% relative humidity (RH), at ambient
temperature. Notably, this is the highest conductivity among the previously
reported proton-conducting MOFs that operate under low RH conditions
