Metal-Dependent and Selective Crystallization of CAU-10 and MIL-53 Frameworks through Linker Nitration.

ABSTRACT: The reaction of the V-shaped linker molecule 5-hydroxyisophthalic acid (H₂ L⁰ ), with Al or Ga nitrate under almost identical reaction conditions leads to the nitration of the linker and subsequent formation of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with CAU-10 or MIL-53 type structure of composition [Al(OH)(L)], denoted as Al-CAU-10-L^{0, 2, 4, 6} or [Ga(OH)(L)], denoted as Ga-MIL-53-L² . The Al-MOF contains the original linker L⁰ as well as three different nitration products (L² , L⁴ and L^4/6 ), whereas the Ga-MOF mainly incorporates the linker L² . The compositions were deduced by ¹ H NMR spectroscopy and confirmed by Rietveld refinement. In situ and ex situ studies were carried out to follow the nitration and crystallization, as well as the composition of the MOFs. The crystal structures were refined against powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) data. As anticipated, the use of the V-shaped linker results in the formation of the CAU-10 type structure in the Al-MOF. Unexpectedly, the Ga-MOF crystallizes in a MIL-53 type structure, which is usually observed with linear or slightly bent linker molecules. To study the structure directing effect of the in situ nitrated linker, pure 2-nitrobenzene-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (m-H₂ BDC-NO₂ ) was employed which exclusively led to the formation of [Ga(OH)(C₈ H₃ NO₆ )] (Ga-MIL-53-m-BDC-NO₂ ), which is isoreticular to Ga-MIL-53-L² . Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations confirmed the higher stability of Ga-MIL-53-L² compared to Ga-CAU-10-L² and grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations (GCMC) are in agreement with the observed water adsorption isotherms of Ga-MIL-53-L² .

Solvent Impact on the Properties of Benchmark Metal-Organic Frameworks: Acetonitrile-Based Synthesis of CAU-10, Ce-UiO-66, and Al-MIL-53.

Project description:Herein is reported the utilization of acetonitrile as a new solvent for the synthesis of the three significantly different benchmark metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) CAU-10, Ce-UiO-66, and Al-MIL-53 of idealized composition [Al(OH)(ISO)], [Ce6 O4 (OH)4 (BDC)6 ], and [Al(OH)(BDC)], respectively (ISO2- : isophthalate, BDC2- : terephthalate). Its use allowed the synthesis of Ce-UiO-66 on a gram scale. While CAU-10 and Ce-UiO-66 exhibit properties similar to those reported elsewhere for these two materials, the obtained Al-MIL-53 shows no structural flexibility upon adsorption of hydrophilic or hydrophobic guest molecules such as water and xenon and is stabilized in its large-pore form over a broad temperature range (130-450?K). The stabilization of the large-pore form of Al-MIL-53 was attributed to a high percentage of noncoordinating -COOH groups as determined by solid-state NMR spectroscopy. The defective material shows an unusually high water uptake of 310?mg?g-1 within the range of 0.45 to 0.65?p/p°. In spite of showing no breathing effect upon water adsorption it exhibits distinct mechanical properties. Thus, mercury intrusion porosimetry studies revealed that the solid can be reversibly forced to breathe by applying moderate pressures (?60?MPa).

Emergence of Nonlinear Optical Activity by Incorporation of a Linker Carrying the p-Nitroaniline Motif in MIL-53 Frameworks.

Project description:p-Nitroaniline presents the typical motif of a second-order nonlinear optically (NLO) active molecule. However, because of its crystallization in an antiparallel and hence centrosymmetric structure, the NLO activity is lost. In this contribution, the p-nitroaniline motif was built successfully into the MIL-53 metal-organic framework. More precisely, MIL-53 was synthesized with 2-amino-5-nitroterephthalate as organic linker, with Al3+, Ga3+, or In3+ as inorganic cation. The Al and Ga structures are polar, as confirmed by second-harmonic generation microscopy, yielding stable NLO materials. Indeed, they contain a 22-36% surplus of the dipolar 2-amino-5-nitro-terephthalate oriented in a parallel fashion. The indium compound was shown to be less crystalline and centrosymmetric. Ab initio modeling of the second-order NLO response shows that the Al and Ga materials show a response comparable to typical inorganic commercial NLO materials such as KDP. As a hybrid material, capable of low-temperature synthesis and processing and the ultrafast NLO responses associated with organic materials, this material can potentially provide an interesting venue for applications with respect to traditional inorganic NLO materials.

Unraveling the molecular mechanism of MIL-53(Al) crystallization.

Project description:The vast structural and chemical diversity of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) provides the exciting possibility of material's design with tailored properties for gas separation, storage and catalysis. However, after more than twenty years after first reports introducing MOFs, the discovery and control of their synthesis remains extremely challenging due to the lack of understanding of mechanisms of their nucleation and growth. Progress in deciphering crystallization pathways depends on the possibility to follow conversion of initial reagents to products at the molecular level, which is a particular challenge under solvothermal conditions. The present work introduces a detailed molecular-level mechanism of the formation of MIL-53(Al), unraveled by combining in situ time-resolved high-resolution mass-spectrometry, magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. In contrast to the general belief, the crystallization of MIL-53 occurs via a solid-solid transformation mechanism, associated with the spontaneous release of monomeric aluminum. The role of DMF hydrolysis products, formate and dimethylamine, is established. Our study emphasizes the complexity of MOF crystallization chemistry, which requires case-by-case investigation using a combination of advanced in situ methods for following the induction period, the nucleation and growth across the time domain.

Increasing the Complexity in the MIL-53 Structure: The Combination of the Mixed-Metal and the Mixed-Linker Concepts.

Project description:The isoreticular mixed-component concept is a promising approach to tailor the material properties of metal-organic frameworks. While isoreticular mixed-metal or mixed-linker materials are commonly synthesized, the combination of both concepts for the development of isoreticular materials featuring both two metals and two linkers is still rarely investigated. Herein, we present the development of mixed-metal/mixed-linker MIL-53 materials that contain different metal combinations (Al/Sc, Al/V, Al/Cr, Al/Fe) and different linker ratios (terephthalate/2-aminoterephthalate). The possibility of changing the metal combination and the linker ratio independently from each other enables a large variety of modifications. A thorough characterization (PXRD, ATR-IR, TGA, 1 H NMR, ICP-OES) confirmed that all components were incorporated into the framework structure with a statistical distribution. Nitrogen physisorption measurements showed that the breathing behavior can be tailored by adjusting the linker ratio for all metal combinations. All materials were successfully used for post-synthetic modification reactions with maleic anhydride.

Electrically Induced Breathing of the MIL-53(Cr) Metal-Organic Framework.

Project description:The breathing behavior of the MIL-53(Cr) metal-organic framework (MOF) has been explored previously upon guest-adsorption and thermal and mechanical stimuli. Here, advanced molecular simulations based on the use of an accurate force field to describe the flexibility of this porous framework demonstrate that the application of an electrical field induces the structural switching of this MOF leading to a first-order transition and a volume change of more than 40%. This motivated us to electrically tune the pore size of MIL-53(Cr) with the idea to propose a new concept to selectively capture CO2 over CH4 via a molecular sieving that paves the way toward the optimization of current separation-based processes.

MIL-53 Metal-Organic Framework as a Flexible Cathode for Lithium-Oxygen Batteries.

Project description:Li-air batteries possess higher specific energies than the current Li-ion batteries. Major drawbacks of the air cathode include the sluggish kinetics of the oxygen reduction (OER), high overpotentials and pore clogging during discharge processes. Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) appear as promising materials because of their high surface areas, tailorable pore sizes and catalytic centers. In this work, we propose to use, for the first time, aluminum terephthalate (well known as MIL-53) as a flexible air cathode for Li-O2 batteries. This compound was synthetized through hydrothermal and microwave-assisted routes, leading to different particle sizes with different aspect ratios. The electrochemical properties of both materials seem to be equivalent. Several behaviors are observed depending on the initial value of the first discharge capacity. When the first discharge capacity is higher, no OER occurs, leading to a fast decrease in the capacity during cycling. The nature and the morphology of the discharge products are investigated using ex situ analysis (XRD, SEM and XPS). For both MIL-53 materials, lithium peroxide Li2O2 is found as the main discharge product. A morphological evolution of the Li2O2 particles occurs upon cycling (stacked thin plates, toroids or pseudo-spheres).

Vapor-phase linker exchange of metal-organic frameworks.

Project description:Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been attracting intensive attention because of their commendable potential in many applications. Postsynthetic modification for redesigning chemical characteristics and pore structures can greatly improve performance and expand functionality of MOF materials. Here, we develop a versatile vapor-phase linker exchange (VPLE) methodology for MOF modification. Through solvent-free and environment-friendly VPLE processing, various linker analogs with functional groups but not for straightforward MOF crystallization are inserted into frameworks as daughter building blocks. Besides single exchange for preparing MOFs with dual linkers, VPLE can further be performed by multistage operations to obtain MOF materials with multiple linkers and functional groups. The halogen-incorporated ZIFs exhibit good porosity, tunable molecular affinity, and impressive CO2/N2 and CH4/N2 adsorption selectivities up to 31.1 and 10.8, respectively, which are two to six times higher than those of conventional adsorbents. Moreover, VPLE can substantially enhance the compatibility of MOFs and polymers.

Experimental Evidence of Negative Linear Compressibility in the MIL-53 Metal-Organic Framework Family.

Project description:We report a series of powder X-ray diffraction experiments performed on the soft porous crystals MIL-53(Al) and NH2-MIL-53(Al) in a diamond anvil cell under different pressurization media. Systematic refinements of the obtained powder patterns demonstrate that these materials expand along a specific direction while undergoing total volume reduction under an increase in hydrostatic pressure. The results confirm for the first time the Negative Linear Compressibility behaviour of this family of materials recently predicted from quantum chemical calculations.

Thermodynamics of the Flexible Metal-Organic Framework Material MIL-53(Cr) From First Principles.

Project description:We use first-principles density functional theory total energy and linear response phonon calculations to compute the Helmholtz and Gibbs free energy as a function of temperature, pressure, and cell volume in the flexible metal-organic framework material MIL-53(Cr) within the quasiharmonic approximation. GGA and metaGGA calculations were performed, each including empirical van der Waals (vdW) forces under the D2, D3, or D3(BJ) parameterizations. At all temperatures up to 500 K and pressures from -30 MPa to 30 MPa, two minima in the free energy versus volume are found, corresponding to the narrow pore (np) and large pore (lp) structures. Critical positive and negative pressures are identified, beyond which there is only one free energy minimum. While all results overestimated the stability of the np phase relative to the lp phase, the best overall agreement with experiment is found for the metaGGA PBEsol+RTPSS+U+J approach with D3 or D3(BJ) vdW forces. For these parameterizations, the calculated free energy barrier for the np-lp transition is only 3 to 6 kJ per mole of Cr4(OH)4(C8H4O4)4.

Computational NMR investigation of mixed-metal (Al,Sc)-MIL-53 and its phase transitions.

Project description:Compositionally complex metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have properties that depend on local structure that is often difficult to characterise. In this paper a density functional theory (DFT) computational study of mixed-metal (Al,Sc)-MIL-53, a flexible MOF with several different forms, was used to calculate the relative energetics of these forms and to predict NMR parameters that can be used to evaluate whether solid-state NMR spectroscopy can be used to differentiate, identify and characterise the forms adopted by mixed-metal MOFs of different composition. The NMR parameters can also be correlated with structural features in the different forms, giving fundamental insight into the nature and origin of the interactions that affect nuclear spins. Given the complexity of advanced NMR experiments required, and the potential need for expensive and difficult isotopic enrichment, the computational work is invaluable in predicting which experiments and approaches are likely to give the most information on the disorder, local structure and pore forms of these mixed-metal MOFs.
