ABSTRACT

Two complementary design strategies, isomorphous ligand replacement and heterocycle doping, have been applied to iteratively enhance the proton conductivity of a metal-organic framework, ß-PCMOF2. The resulting materials, PCMOF21/2(Pz) and PCMOF21/2(Tz) (Pz = 1H-pyrazole, Tz = 1H-1,2,4-triazole), have their proton conduction raised almost 2 orders of magnitude compared to ß-PCMOF2. The bulk conductivities of these materials are over 10-1 S cm-1 at 85 °C and 90% relative humidity (RH), while maintaining the parent MOF structure. A solid state synthetic route for doping 1-D channels is also presented.

ABSTRACT

Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are particularly exciting materials that couple porosity, diversity and crystallinity. But although they have been investigated for a wide range of applications, MOF chemistry focuses almost exclusively on properties intrinsic to the empty frameworks; the use of guest molecules to control functions has been essentially unexamined. Here we report Na(3)(2,4,6-trihydroxy-1,3,5-benzenetrisulfonate) (named ß-PCMOF2), a MOF that conducts protons in regular one-dimensional pores lined with sulfonate groups. Proton conduction in ß-PCMOF2 was modulated by the controlled loading of 1H-1,2,4-triazole (Tz) guests within the pores and reached 5 × 10(-4) S cm(-1) at 150 °C in anhydrous H(2), as confirmed by electrical measurements in H(2) and D(2), and by solid-state NMR spectroscopy. To confirm its potential as a gas separator membrane, the partially loaded MOF (ß-PCMOF2(Tz)(0.45)) was also incorporated into a H(2)/air membrane electrode assembly. The resulting membrane proved to be gas tight, and gave an open circuit voltage of 1.18 V at 100 °C.
