Host-Guest Interactions of Zirconium-Based Metal-Organic Framework with Ionic Liquid.

ABSTRACT: A metal-organic framework (MOF) is a three-dimensional crystalline compound made from organic ligands and metals. The cross-linkage between organic ligands and metals creates a network of coordination polymers containing adjustable voids with a high total surface area. This special feature of MOF made it possible to form a host-guest interaction with small molecules, such as ionic liquid (IL), which can alter the phase behavior and improve the performance in battery applications. The molecular interactions of MOF and IL are, however, hard to understand due to the limited number of computational studies. In this study, the structural parameters of a zirconium-based metal-organic framework (UiO-66) and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, [EMIM][TFSI] were investigated via a combined experimental and computational approach using the linker model approach. When IL was loaded, the bond length and bond angle of organic linkers were distorted due to the increased electron density surrounding the framework. The increase in molecular orbital energy after confining IL stabilized the structure of this hybrid system. The molecular interactions study revealed that the combination of UiO-66 and [EMIM][TFSI] could be a promising candidate as an electrolyte material in an energy storage system.

Project description:ConspectusMetal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of hybrid porous materials characterized by their periodic assembly using metal ions and organic ligands through coordination bonds. Their high crystallinity, extensive surface area, and adjustable pore sizes make them promising candidates for a wide array of applications. These include gas adsorption and separation, substrate binding, and catalysis, of relevance to tackling pressing global issues such as climate change, energy challenges, and pollution. In comparison to traditional porous materials such as zeolites and activated carbons, the design flexibility of organic ligands in MOFs, coupled with their orderly arrangement with associated metal centers, allows for the precise engineering of uniform pore environments. This unique feature enables a rich variety of interactions between the MOF host and adsorbed gas molecules, which are fundamental to understanding the observed uptake capacity and selectivity for target gas molecules and thus the overall performance of the material.In this Account, a data set for three-dimensional MOFs has been constructed based upon the structural analysis of host-guest interactions using the largest experimental database, the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD). A full screening was performed on structures with guest molecules of H2, C2H2, CO2, and SO2, and the relationship between the primary binding site, the isosteric heats of adsorption (Qst), and the adsorption uptake was extracted and established. We review the methodologies to refine host-guest interactions based primarily on our studies on the host-guest chemistry of MOFs. The methods include ligand functionalization, variation of metal centers, formation of defects, addition of single atom sites, and control of pore size and structure. In situ structural and dynamic investigations using diffraction and spectroscopic techniques are powerful tools to visualize the details of host-guest interactions upon the above modifications, affording key insights into functional performance at a molecular level. Finally, we give an outlook of future research priorities in the study of host-guest chemistry in MOF materials. We hope this Account will encourage the rational development and improvement of future MOF-based sorbents for applications in challenging gas adsorption, separations, and catalysis.
