We have realized a new porous metal-organic framework UTSA-76a with pyrimidine groups on the linker, exhibiting high volumetric methane uptake of ~260 cm(3) (STP) cm(-3) at 298 K and 65 bar, and record high working capacity of ~200 cm(3) (STP) cm(-3) (between 5 and 65 bar). Such exceptionally high working capacity is attributed to the central "dynamic" pyrimidine groups within UTSA-76a, which are capable of adjusting their orientations to optimize the methane packing at high pressure, as revealed by computational studies and neutron scattering experiments.
我们实现了一种新的多孔金属-有机骨架 UTSA-76a,其连接体上带有嘧啶基团,在 298 K 和 65 巴的条件下,甲烷的体积吸附量高达约 260 cm(3)(STP)cm(-3),工作容量高达约 200 cm(3)(STP)cm(-3)(5 至 65 巴之间)。这种异常高的工作容量归因于 UTSA-76a 内部的中央“动态”嘧啶基团,通过计算研究和中子散射实验表明,这些基团能够调整其取向,以在高压下优化甲烷的堆积。
