Adsorption of Nitrogen Dioxide in a Redox-Active Vanadium Metal-Organic Framework Material.

ABSTRACT: Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) is a toxic air pollutant, and efficient abatement technologies are important to mitigate the many associated health and environmental problems. Here, we report the reactive adsorption of NO2 in a redox-active metal-organic framework (MOF), MFM-300(V). Adsorption of NO2 induces the oxidation of V(III) to V(IV) centers in MFM-300(V), and this is accompanied by the reduction of adsorbed NO2 to NO and the release of water via deprotonation of the framework hydroxyl groups, as confirmed by synchrotron X-ray diffraction and various experimental techniques. The efficient packing of {NO2·N2O4}? chains in the pores of MFM-300(VIV) results in a high isothermal NO2 uptake of 13.0 mmol g-1 at 298 K and 1.0 bar and is retained for multiple adsorption-desorption cycles. This work will inspire the design of redox-active sorbents that exhibit reductive adsorption of NO2 for the elimination of air pollutants.

Project description:Solvent-assisted ligand incorporation (SALI) of the ditopic linker 5-carboxy-3-(4-carboxybenzyl)thiazolium bromide [(H2PhTz)Br] into the zirconium metal-organic framework NU-1000 [Zr6O4(OH)8(H2O)4(TBAPy)2, where NU = Northwestern University and H4TBAPy = 1,3,6,8-tetrakis(p-benzoic-acid)pyrene], led to the SALIed NU-1000-PhTz material of minimal formula [Zr6O4(OH)6(H2O)2(TBAPy)2(PhTz)]Br. NU-1000-PhTz has been thoroughly characterized in the solid state. As confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction, this material keeps the same three-dimensional architecture of NU-1000 and the dicarboxylic extra linker bridges adjacent [Zr6] nodes ca. 8 Å far apart along the crystallographic c-axis. The functionalized MOF has a BET specific surface area of 1560 m2/g, and it is featured by a slightly higher thermal stability than its parent material (Tdec = 820 vs. 800 K, respectively). NU-1000-PhTz has been exploited for the capture and separation of two pollutant gases: carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrous oxide (N2O). The high thermodynamic affinity for both gases [isosteric heat of adsorption (Qst) = 25 and 27 kJ mol-1 for CO2 and N2O, respectively] reasonably stems from the strong interactions between these (polar) "stick-like" molecules and the ionic framework. Intriguingly, NU-1000-PhTz shows an unprecedented temperature-dependent adsorption capacity, loading more N2O in the 298 K ≤ T ≤ 313 K range but more CO2 at temperatures falling out of this range. Grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations of the adsorption isotherms confirmed that the preferential adsorption sites of both gases are the triangular channels (micropores) in close proximity to the polar pillar. While CO2 interacts with the thiazolium ring in an "end-on" fashion through its O atoms, N2O adopts a "side-on" configuration through its three atoms simultaneously. These findings open new horizons in the discovery of functional materials that may discriminate between polluting gases through selective adsorption at different temperatures.
