RESUMO

Materials capable of selectively adsorbing or releasing water can enable valuable applications ranging from efficient humidity and temperature control to the direct atmospheric capture of potable water. Despite recent progress in employing metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as privileged water sorbents, developing a readily accessible, water-stable MOF platform that can be systematically modified for high water uptake at low relative humidity remains a significant challenge. We herein report the development of a tunable MOF that efficiently captures atmospheric water (up to 0.78 g water/g MOF) across a range of uptake humidity (27-45%) employing a readily accessible Zn bibenzotriazolate MOF, CFA-1 ([Zn5(OAc)4(bibta)3], H2bibta = 1H,1H'-5,5'-bibenzo[d][1,2,3]triazole), as a base for subsequent diversification. Controlling the metal identity (zinc, nickel) and coordinating nonstructural anion (acetate, chloride) via postsynthetic exchange modulates the relative humidity of uptake, facilitating the use of a single MOF scaffold for a diverse range of potential water sorption applications. We further present a fundamental theory dictating how continuous variation of the pore environment affects the relative humidity of uptake. Exchange of substituents preserves capacity for water sorption, increases hydrolytic stability (with 5.7% loss in working capacity over 450 water adsorption-desorption cycles for the nickel-chloride-rich framework), and enables continuous modulation for the relative humidity of pore condensation. This combination of stability and tunability within a synthetically accessible framework renders Ni-incorporated M5X4bibta3 promising materials for practical water sorption applications.

RESUMO

We describe the synthesis and properties of Zn3[(Zn4Cl)3(BTT)8]2 (ZnZnBTT, BTT3- = 1,3,5-benzenetristetrazolate), a heretofore unknown member of a well-known, extensive family of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with the general formula MII3[(MII4Cl)3(BTT)8]2, which adopts an anionic, sodalite-like structure. As with previous members in this family, ZnZnBTT presents two crystallographically distinct metal cations: a skeletal Zn2+ site, fixed within Zn4Cl(tetrazole)8 secondary building units (SBUs), and a charge-balancing Zn2+ site. Self-assembly of ZnZnBTT from its building blocks has remained elusive; instead, we show that ZnZnBTT is readily accessed by quantitative postsynthetic exchange of all Mn2+ ions in MnMnBTT with zinc. We further demonstrate that ZnZnBTT is a promising Zn-ion conductor owing to the mobile charge-balancing extra-framework Zn2+ cations. The new material displays a Zn-ion conductivity of σ = 1.15 × 10-4 S/cm at room temperature and a relatively low activation energy of Ea = 0.317 eV, enabling potential applications in the emerging field of quasi-solid-state zinc-ion batteries.

RESUMO

Despite the myriad Cu-catalyzed nitrene transfer methodologies to form new C-N bonds (e.g., amination, aziridination), the critical reaction intermediates have largely eluded direct characterization due to their inherent reactivity. Herein, we report the synthesis of dipyrrin-supported Cu nitrenoid adducts, investigate their spectroscopic features, and probe their nitrene transfer chemistry through detailed mechanistic analyses. Treatment of the dipyrrin CuI complexes with substituted organoazides affords terminally ligated organoazide adducts with minimal activation of the azide unit as evidenced by vibrational spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The Cu nitrenoid, with an electronic structure most consistent with a triplet nitrene adduct of CuI, is accessed following geometric rearrangement of the azide adduct from κ1-N terminal ligation to κ1-N internal ligation with subsequent expulsion of N2. For perfluorinated arylazides, stoichiometric and catalytic C-H amination and aziridination was observed. Mechanistic analysis employing substrate competition reveals an enthalpically-controlled, electrophilic nitrene transfer for primary and secondary C-H bonds. Kinetic analyses for catalytic amination using tetrahydrofuran as a model substrate reveal pseudo-first order kinetics under relevant amination conditions with a first-order dependence on both Cu and organoazide. Activation parameters determined from Eyring analysis (ΔH‡ = 9.2(2) kcal mol-1, ΔS‡ = -42(2) cal mol-1 K-1, ΔG‡298K = 21.7(2) kcal mol-1) and parallel kinetic isotope effect measurements (1.10(2)) are consistent with rate-limiting Cu nitrenoid formation, followed by a proposed stepwise hydrogen-atom abstraction and rapid radical recombination to furnish the resulting C-N bond. The proposed mechanism and experimental analysis are further corroborated by density functional theory calculations. Multiconfigurational calculations provide insight into the electronic structure of the catalytically relevant Cu nitrene intermediates. The findings presented herein will assist in the development of future methodology for Cu-mediated C-N bond forming catalysis.

RESUMO

The scission of the O-O bond in O2 during respiration and the formation of the O-O bond during photosynthesis are the engines of aerobic life. Likewise, the reduction of O2 and the oxidation of reduced oxygen species to form O2 are indispensable components for emerging renewable technologies, including energy storage and conversion, yet discrete molecule-like systems that promote these fundamental reactions are rare. Herein, we report a square-planar tetramanganese cluster formed by self-assembly within a metal-organic framework that reversibly reduces O2 by four electrons, facilitating the interconversion between molecular O2 and metal-oxo species. The tetranuclear cluster spontaneously cleaves the O-O bond of O2 at room temperature to generate a tetramanganese-bis(µ2-oxo) species, which, in turn, is competent for O-O bond reformation and O2 evolution at elevated temperatures, enabled by the head-to-head orientation of two oxo species. This study demonstrates the viability of four-electron interconversion between molecular O2 and metal-oxo species and highlights the importance of site isolation for achieving multi-electron chemistry at polynuclear metal clusters.

RESUMO

The presence of site-isolated and well-defined metal sites has enabled the use of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as catalysts that can be rationally modulated. Because MOFs can be addressed and manipulated through molecular synthetic pathways, they are chemically similar to molecular catalysts. They are, nevertheless, solid-state materials and therefore can be thought of as privileged solid molecular catalysts that excel in applications involving gas-phase reactions. This contrasts with homogeneous catalysts, which are overwhelmingly used in the solution phase. Herein, we review theories dictating gas phase reactivity within porous solids and discuss key catalytic gas-solid reactions. We further treat theoretical aspects of diffusion within confined pores, the enrichment of adsorbates, the types of solvation spheres that a MOF might impart on adsorbates, definitions of acidity/basicity in the absence of solvent, the stabilization of reactive intermediates, and the generation and characterization of defect sites. The key catalytic reactions we discuss broadly include reductive reactions (olefin hydrogenation, semihydrogenation, and selective catalytic reduction), oxidative reactions (oxygenation of hydrocarbons, oxidative dehydrogenation, and carbon monoxide oxidation), and C-C bond forming reactions (olefin dimerization/polymerization, isomerization, and carbonylation reactions).

RESUMO

We report that exposing the dipyrrin complex (EMindL)Cu(N2) to air affords rapid, quantitative uptake of O2 in either solution or the solid-state to yield (EMindL)Cu(O2). The air and thermal stability of (EMindL)Cu(O2) is unparalleled in molecular copper-dioxygen coordination chemistry, attributable to the ligand flanking groups which preclude the [Cu(O2)]1+ core from degradation. Despite the apparent stability of (EMindL)Cu(O2), dioxygen binding is reversible over multiple cycles with competitive solvent exchange, thermal cycling, and redox manipulations. Additionally, rapid, catalytic oxidation of 1,2-diphenylhydrazine to azoarene with the generation of hydrogen peroxide is observed, through the intermittency of an observable (EMindL)Cu(H2O2) adduct. The design principles gleaned from this study can provide insight for the formation of new materials capable of reversible scavenging of O2 from air under ambient conditions with low-coordinate CuI sorbents.
