Electronic effects of ligand substitution on metal-organic framework photocatalysts: the case study of UiO-66.
نویسندگان
چکیده
UiO-66-X (X = H, NH2, NO2, Br) have been successfully synthesized and tested for their photocatalytic activity in water treatment. Results show that electronic effect of the ligand substituents greatly affects the photocatalytic activity of UiO-66. The rates obtained by different substituents are linearly correlated with their Hammett coefficients.

Missing Linkers: An Alternative Pathway to UiO-66 Electronic Structure Engineering
UiO-66 is a promising metal-organic framework for photocatalytic applications. However, the ligand-to-metal charge transfer of an excited electron is inefficient in the pristine material. Herein, we assess the influence of missing linker defects on the electronic structure of UiO-66 and discuss their ability to improve ligand-to-metal charge transfer. Using a new defect classification system, w...
متن کاملMetal-organic frameworks constructed from crown ether-based 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid derivatives.
A series of unprecedented crown ether- and thiacrown ether-derivatized benzene dicarboxylic acid (H2bdc) ligands has been synthesized and incorporated into the prototypical isoreticular metal-organic framework (IRMOF) and UiO-66 materials. In the case of UiO-66, only MOFs comprised from a mixed-ligand composition, requiring both unsubstituted bdc and crown ether containing ligands, could be pre...
متن کاملElectronic origins of photocatalytic activity in d0 metal organic frameworks.
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) containing d(0) metals such as NH2-MIL-125(Ti), NH2-UiO-66(Zr) and NH2-UiO-66(Hf) are among the most studied MOFs for photocatalytic applications. Despite structural similarities, we demonstrate that the electronic properties of these MOFs are markedly different. As revealed by quantum chemistry, EPR measurements and transient absorption spectroscopy, the highest...
متن کاملSuperior removal of arsenic from water with zirconium metal-organic framework UiO-66
In this study, water stable zirconium metal-organic framework (UiO-66) has been synthesized and for the first time applied as an adsorbent to remove aquatic arsenic contamination. The as-synthesized UiO-66 adsorbent functions excellently across a broad pH range of 1 to 10, and achieves a remarkable arsenate uptake capacity of 303 mg/g at the optimal pH, i.e., pH = 2. To the best of our knowledg...

A series of mixed-ligand [1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid (BDC)/2-amino-1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid (ABDC)] UiO-66 metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) synthesized through two different methods (low (LT) and high temperature (HT)) have been investigated for their carbon dioxide adsorption properties from 0 to 1 bar to clarify the role of amino loading on carbon dioxide uptake. Volumetric CO2 isotherms...
