Unique fluorophilic pores engineering within porous aromatic frameworks for trace perfluorooctanoic acid removal

ABSTRACT: ABSTRACT Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), a representative of per/polyfluorinated alkyl substances, has become a persistent water pollutant of widespread concern due to its biological toxicity and refractory property. In this work, we design and synthesize two porous aromatic frameworks (PAF) of PAF-CF3 and PAF-C2F5 using fluorine-containing alkyl based monomers in tetrahedral geometry. Both PAFs exhibit nanosized pores (∼1.0 nm) of high surface areas (over 800 m2 g−1) and good fluorophilicity. Remarkable adsorption capacity (˃740 mg g−1) and superior efficiency (˃24 g mg−1 h−1) are achieved toward the removal of PFOA with 1 μg L−1 concentration owing to unique C–F···F–C interactions. In particular, PAF-CF3 and PAF-C2F5 are able to reduce the PFOA concentration in water to 37.9 ng L−1 and 43.3 ng L−1, below EPA regulations (70 ng L−1). The reusability and high efficiency give both PAFs a great potential for sewage treatment. Two porous aromatic frameworks containing perfluoroalkyl groups are designed and successfully synthesized with good fluorophilicity and high porosity. They efficiently remove PFOA below regulation limit, candidating them for water purification.

Effective removal of aromatic pollutants <i>via</i> adsorption and photocatalysis of porous organic frameworks.

Project description:PAF-45 with a wholly aromatic framework, intrinsic microporosity and π-π conjugation system shows excellent performance in aromatic pollutant removal. It exhibits a high adsorption capacity for the benzene series and moderate photocatalytic performance. As an adsorbent, PAF-45 can adsorb 35 wt% benzene and 68 wt% chlorobenzene in static adsorption experiments at room temperature and pressure. In benzene simulation wastewater, PAF-45 also shows excellent adsorption capacity, without significant reduction after 10 cycles of the adsorption-desorption process. Moreover, PAF-45 exhibits an impressive photocatalytic degradability of aromatic compounds, like aniline and phenol, under visible light illumination.

Facile transformation of imine covalent organic frameworks into ultrastable crystalline porous aromatic frameworks.

Project description:The growing interest in two-dimensional imine-based covalent organic frameworks (COFs) is inspired by their crystalline porous structures and the potential for extensive ?-electron delocalization. The intrinsic reversibility and strong polarization of imine linkages, however, leads to insufficient chemical stability and optoelectronic properties. Developing COFs with improved robustness and ?-delocalization is highly desirable but remains an unsettled challenge. Here we report a facile strategy that transforms imine-linked COFs into ultrastable porous aromatic frameworks by kinetically fixing the reversible imine linkage via an aza-Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction. The as-formed, quinoline-linked COFs not only retain crystallinity and porosity, but also display dramatically enhanced chemical stability over their imine-based COF precursors, rendering them among the most robust COFs up-to-date that can withstand strong acidic, basic and redox environment. Owing to the chemical diversity of the cycloaddition reaction and structural tunability of COFs, the pores of COFs can be readily engineered to realize pre-designed surface functionality.

Coupling fullerene into porous aromatic frameworks for gas selective sorption.

Project description:A lot of investigations calculate that fullerene would be an excellent unit for porous adsorbents for gas sorption and separation. Although the conjugated structure and symmetrical shape of fullerene makes it an ideal building block, there is no facile strategy to achieve fullerene-based porous materials. Herein, we adopt a novel acid catalyzed coupling reaction to bind the fullerene molecules together in a one-step synthesis. After synthesizing the adducts as models, the atomic connectivity between the fullerene molecules is determined clearly. We then prepared a series of fullerene-based porous aromatic frameworks (PAFs). The targeted products adsorb H2 and CO2, and they exhibit some selectivity of CO2 over N2 and CH4. The good performance of the PAFs indicates that we could combine the gas binding ability of the building block and the porous nature of PAF materials together to give a better adsorbent.

Trace removal of benzene vapour using double-walled metal-dipyrazolate frameworks.

Project description:In principle, porous physisorbents are attractive candidates for the removal of volatile organic compounds such as benzene by virtue of their low energy for the capture and release of this pollutant. Unfortunately, many physisorbents exhibit weak sorbate-sorbent interactions, resulting in poor selectivity and low uptake when volatile organic compounds are present at trace concentrations. Herein, we report that a family of double-walled metal-dipyrazolate frameworks, BUT-53 to BUT-58, exhibit benzene uptakes at 298 K of 2.47-3.28 mmol g-1 at <10 Pa. Breakthrough experiments revealed that BUT-55, a supramolecular isomer of the metal-organic framework Co(BDP) (H2BDP = 1,4-di(1H-pyrazol-4-yl)benzene), captures trace levels of benzene, producing an air stream with benzene content below acceptable limits. Furthermore, BUT-55 can be regenerated with mild heating. Insight into the performance of BUT-55 comes from the crystal structure of the benzene-loaded phase (C6H6@BUT-55) and density functional theory calculations, which reveal that C-H···X interactions drive the tight binding of benzene. Our results demonstrate that BUT-55 is a recyclable physisorbent that exhibits high affinity and adsorption capacity towards benzene, making it a candidate for environmental remediation of benzene-contaminated gas mixtures.

Installation of synergistic binding sites onto porous organic polymers for efficient removal of perfluorooctanoic acid.

Project description:Herein, we report a strategy to construct highly efficient perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) adsorbents by installing synergistic electrostatic/hydrophobic sites onto porous organic polymers (POPs). The constructed model material of PAF-1-NDMB (NDMB = N,N-dimethyl-butylamine) demonstrates an exceptionally high PFOA uptake capacity over 2000 mg g-1, which is 14.8 times enhancement compared with its parent material of PAF-1. And it is 32.0 and 24.1 times higher than benchmark materials of DFB-CDP (β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)-based polymer network) and activated carbon under the same conditions. Furthermore, PAF-1-NDMB exhibits the highest k2 value of 24,000 g mg-1 h-1 among all reported PFOA sorbents. And it can remove 99.99% PFOA from 1000 ppb to <70 ppt within 2 min, which is lower than the advisory level of Environmental Protection Agency of United States. This work thus not only provides a generic approach for constructing PFOA adsorbents, but also develops POPs as a platform for PFOA capture.

Hydroxyl porous aromatic frameworks for efficient adsorption of organic micropollutants in water.

Project description:Environmental pollution is an important issue in sustainable human development. People give great importance to environmental protection, especially with regards to increasingly scarce water resources. Water pollution is becoming more and more serious due to the existence of organic micropollutants. As a platform with good stability, porous aromatic frameworks (PAFs) have been widely studied. Because of their high surface area and thermal stability, they are considered to be a good sewage treatment agent. However, the aromatic nature of PAFs makes their skeletons mostly hydrophobic. This characteristic of PAFs seriously affects their diffusion rate in water as an adsorbent, resulting in a low adsorption rate. In this work, we synthesized a series of hydroxyl functionalized porous aromatic frameworks (PAF-80, PAF-81, and PAF-82) via the Sonogashira-Hagihara cross-coupling reaction, which created polar motifs on the hydrophobic surfaces, and carried out adsorption tests on typical organic micropollutants in water such as bisphenol A (BPA), 2-naphthol (2-NO) and p-chloroxylenol (PCMX). Among the three PAFs, PAF-82 exhibited the highest BET surface area, polar active sites, and a high degree of conjugation, which led to the best adsorption performance compared to that of PAF-80 and PAF-81. The Langmuir adsorption capacity of PAF-82 for BPA, 2-NO, and PCMX is 689 mg g-1, 431 mg g-1, and 480 mg g-1, respectively, which surpasses most previously reported adsorbents. In addition, after 5 cycles of regeneration, it still maintained a high removal rate for pollutants. The obtained results reveal that micropollutant adsorption in water is not controlled by a single factor, but is the result of a synergy of multiple factors, including specific surface area, polar functional groups, pore size distribution, and skeleton conjugation. Our study has revealed the great potential of hydroxyl PAFs for efficient adsorption of organic micropollutants in water.

Made-to-order metal-organic frameworks for trace carbon dioxide removal and air capture.

Project description:Direct air capture is regarded as a plausible alternate approach that, if economically practical, can mitigate the increasing carbon dioxide emissions associated with two of the main carbon polluting sources, namely stationary power plants and transportation. Here we show that metal-organic framework crystal chemistry permits the construction of an isostructural metal-organic framework (SIFSIX-3-Cu) based on pyrazine/copper(II) two-dimensional periodic 4(4) square grids pillared by silicon hexafluoride anions and thus allows further contraction of the pore system to 3.5 versus 3.84 Å for the parent zinc(II) derivative. This enhances the adsorption energetics and subsequently displays carbon dioxide uptake and selectivity at very low partial pressures relevant to air capture and trace carbon dioxide removal. The resultant SIFSIX-3-Cu exhibits uniformly distributed adsorption energetics and offers enhanced carbon dioxide physical adsorption properties, uptake and selectivity in highly diluted gas streams, a performance, to the best of our knowledge, unachievable with other classes of porous materials.

Water-stable porous Al<sub>24</sub> Archimedean solids for removal of trace iodine.

Project description:In this paper, we report a unique type of core-shell crystalline material that combines an inorganic zeolitic cage structure with a macrocyclic host arrangement and that can remove trace levels of iodine from water effectively. These unique assemblies are made up of an inorganic Archimedean truncatedhexahedron (tcu) polyhedron in the kernel which possesses six calixarene-like shell cavities. The cages have good adaptability to guests and can be assembled into a series of supramolecular structures in the crystalline state with different lattice pore shapes. Due to the unique core-shell porous structures, the compounds are not only stable in organic solvents but also in water. The characteristics of the cages enable rapid iodine capture from low concentration aqueous I2/KI solutions (down to 4 ppm concentration). We have studied the detailed process and mechanism of iodine capture and aggregation at the molecular level. The facile synthesis, considerable adsorption capacity, recyclability, and β- and γ-radiation resistance of the cages should make these materials suitable for the extraction of iodine from aqueous effluent streams (most obviously, radioactive iodide produced by atomic power generation).

Unique Design of Porous Organic Framework Showing Efficiency toward Removal of Toxicants.

Project description:This report deligates about the creation of porous polymeric organic framework (POF) from dialkynes and poly(alkyne) with their discovery as an efficient set of purifier. POF showed efficient physisorption for dyes-fluorescein and rhodamine B. The material POF selectively released rhodamine B and not fluorescein. The material was recyclable over number of cycles during the adsorption-release cycle. Moreover, the thiol-functionalized POF expectedly showed chemisorption for mercury. Therefore, the prime attractive cause for such a material is its ability to recycle as well as its thiol functionalization toward the removal of heavy metal such as mercury.

Tailoring the pore chemistry in porous aromatic frameworks for selective separation of acetylene from ethylene.

Project description:The separation of acetylene from ethylene is a crucial process in the petrochemical industry, because even traces of acetylene impurities can poison the catalysts of ethylene polymerization. Herein, we synthesize a new family of 3D porous aromatic frameworks (PAFs), non-functionalized PAF-28, carbene-functionalized PAF-28 (cPAF-28) and imidazolium-functionalized PAF-28 (iPAF-28), via Sonogashira coupling reactions. These PAFs show high porosity and good thermal stability. Both cPAF-28 and iPAF-28 are proved to be good candidates for C2H2 adsorption, demonstrated by C2H2/C2H4 selectivity of 12.2 and 15.4, and C2H2 capacity of 48 cm3 g-1 and 57 cm3 g-1, which are significantly higher than those of non-functionalized PAF-28 (1.8, 37 cm3 g-1). Furthermore, the cPAF-28 and iPAF-28 display good breakthrough performance and remarkable recyclability for the separation of the C2H2/C2H4 gas mixture. In addition, the C2H2/C2H4 adsorption sites are revealed by DFT calculations. This work sheds a new light on gas molecular recognition by tailoring the pore chemistry of PAFs.
