Computational Study of Propylene and Propane Binding in Metal− Organic Frameworks Containing Highly Exposed Cu or Ag Cations
نویسندگان
چکیده
A synthetic route to create highly exposed, monovalent metal cations within the linkers of metal−organic frameworks (MOFs) is proposed and analyzed computationally. Quantum chemical calculations demonstrate the thermodynamic feasibility of incorporating Cu or Ag into a MOF containing an acetylene-bearing linker via postsynthesis modification. These highly exposed metal sites are predicted to bind propylene much more strongly than propane, suggesting their utility in adsorption separations. The nature of the propylene/metal binding is analyzed, and potential difficulties in activating the metal sites are discussed.

The influence of the nature of the cation on the interaction of the silicoaluminophosphate SAPO-34 with small hydrocarbons (ethane, ethylene, acetylene, propane, propylene) is investigated using periodic density-functional theory calculations including a semi-empirical dispersion correction (DFT-D). Initial calculations are used to evaluate which of the guest-accessible cation sites in the chab...
