Wright, J.S., Metherell, A.J., Cullen, W.M. orcid.org/0000-0001-6540-6341 et al. (3 more authors) (2017) Highly selective CO2 vs. N2 adsorption in the cavity of a molecular coordination cage. Chemical Communications . ISSN 1359-7345
Abstract
Two M8L12 cubic coordination cages, as desolvated crystalline powders, preferentially adsorb CO2 over N2 with ideal selectivity CO2/N2 constants of 49 and 30 at 298 K. A binding site for CO2 is suggested by crystallographic location of CS2 within the cage cavity at an electropositive hydrogen-bond donor site, potentially explaining the high CO2/N2 selectivity compared to other materials with this level of porosity.
