RESUMO

High and increasing production of separation of C8 aromatic isomers demands the development of purification methods that are efficient, scalable, and inexpensive, especially for p-xylene, PX, the largest volume C8 commodity. Herein, we report that 4-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-phenyl-1H-benzo[de]isoquinoline-1,3(2H)-dione (TPBD), a molecular compound that can be prepared and scaled up via solid-state synthesis, exhibits exceptional PX selectivity over each of the other C8 isomers, o-xylene (OX), m-xylene (MX), and ethylbenzene (EB). The apohost or α form of TPBD was found to exhibit conformational polymorphism in the solid state enabled by rotation of its triazole and benzene rings. TPBD-αI and TPBD-αII are nonporous polymorphs that transformed to the same PX inclusion compound, TPBD-PX, upon contact with liquid PX. TPBD enabled highly selective capture of PX, as established by competitive slurry experiments involving various molar ratios in binary, ternary, and quaternary mixtures of C8 aromatics. Binary selectivity values for PX as determined by 1H NMR spectroscopy and gas chromatography ranged from 22.4 to 108.4, setting new benchmarks for both PX/MX (70.3) and PX/EB (59.9) selectivity as well as close to benchmark selectivity for PX/OX (108.4). To our knowledge, TPBD is the first material of any class to exhibit such high across-the-board PX selectivity from quaternary mixtures of C8 aromatics under ambient conditions. Crystallographic and computational studies provide structural insight into the PX binding site in TPBD-PX, whereas thermal stability and capture kinetics were determined by variable-temperature powder X-ray diffraction and slurry tests, respectively. That TPBD offers benchmark PX selectivity and facile recyclability makes it a prototypal molecular compound for PX purification or capture under ambient conditions.

RESUMO

Ultramicroporous materials can be highly effective at trace gas separations when they offer a high density of selective binding sites. Herein, we report that sql-NbOFFIVE-bpe-Cu, a new variant of a previously reported ultramicroporous square lattice, sql, topology material, sql-SIFSIX-bpe-Zn, can exist in two polymorphs. These polymorphs, sql-NbOFFIVE-bpe-Cu-AA (AA) and sql-NbOFFIVE-bpe-Cu-AB (AB), exhibit AAAA and ABAB packing of the sql layers, respectively. Whereas NbOFFIVE-bpe-Cu-AA (AA) is isostructural with sql-SIFSIX-bpe-Zn, each exhibiting intrinsic 1D channels, sql-NbOFFIVE-bpe-Cu-AB (AB) has two types of channels, the intrinsic channels and extrinsic channels between the sql networks. Gas and temperature induced transformations of the two polymorphs of sql-NbOFFIVE-bpe-Cu were investigated by pure gas sorption, single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD), variable temperature powder X-ray diffraction (VT-PXRD), and synchrotron PXRD. We observed that the extrinsic pore structure of AB resulted in properties with potential for selective C3H4/C3H6 separation. Subsequent dynamic gas breakthrough measurements revealed exceptional experimental C3H4/C3H6 selectivity (270) and a new benchmark for productivity (118 mmol g-1) of polymer grade C3H6 (purity >99.99%) from a 1:99 C3H4/C3H6 mixture. Structural analysis, gas sorption studies, and gas adsorption kinetics enabled us to determine that a binding "sweet spot" for C3H4 in the extrinsic pores is behind the benchmark separation performance. Density-functional theory (DFT) calculations and Canonical Monte Carlo (CMC) simulations provided further insight into the binding sites of C3H4 and C3H6 molecules within these two hybrid ultramicroporous materials, HUMs. These results highlight, to our knowledge for the first time, how pore engineering through the study of packing polymorphism in layered materials can dramatically change the separation performance of a physisorbent.

RESUMO

Coordination networks (CNs) that undergo gas-induced transformation from closed (nonporous) to open (porous) structures are of potential utility in gas storage applications, but their development is hindered by limited control over their switching mechanisms and pressures. In this work, we report two CNs, [Co(bimpy)(bdc)]n (X-dia-4-Co) and [Co(bimbz)(bdc)]n (X-dia-5-Co) (H2bdc = 1,4-benzendicarboxylic acid; bimpy = 2,5-bis(1H-imidazole-1-yl)pyridine; bimbz = 1,4-bis(1H-imidazole-1-yl)benzene), that both undergo transformation from closed to isostructural open phases involving at least a 27% increase in cell volume. Although X-dia-4-Co and X-dia-5-Co only differ from one another by one atom in their N-donor linkers (bimpy = pyridine, and bimbz = benzene), this results in different pore chemistry and switching mechanisms. Specifically, X-dia-4-Co exhibited a gradual phase transformation with a steady increase in the uptake when exposed to CO2, whereas X-dia-5-Co exhibited a sharp step (type F-IV isotherm) at P/P0 ≈ 0.008 or P ≈ 3 bar (195 or 298 K, respectively). Single-crystal X-ray diffraction, in situ powder XRD, in situ IR, and modeling (density functional theory calculations, and canonical Monte Carlo simulations) studies provide insights into the nature of the switching mechanisms and enable attribution of pronounced differences in sorption properties to the changed pore chemistry.

RESUMO

A molecular porous material, MPM-2, comprised of cationic [Ni2 (AlF6 )(pzH)8 (H2 O)2 ] and anionic [Ni2 Al2 F11 (pzH)8 (H2 O)2 ] complexes that generate a charge-assisted hydrogen-bonded network with pcu topology is reported. The packing in MPM-2 is sustained by multiple interionic hydrogen bonding interactions that afford ultramicroporous channels between dense layers of anionic units. MPM-2 is found to exhibit excellent stability in water (>1 year). Unlike most hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks which typically show poor stability in organic solvents, MPM-2 exhibited excellent stability with respect to various organic solvents for at least two days. MPM-2 is found to be permanently porous with gas sorption isotherms at 298 K revealing a strong affinity for C2 H2 over CO2 thanks to a high (ΔQst )AC [Qst (C2 H2 ) - Qst (CO2 )] of 13.7 kJ mol-1 at low coverage. Dynamic column breakthrough experiments on MPM-2 demonstrated the separation of C2 H2 from a 1:1 C2 H2 /CO2 mixture at 298 K with effluent CO2 purity of 99.995% and C2 H2 purity of >95% after temperature-programmed desorption. C-H···F interactions between C2 H2 molecules and F atoms of AlF6 3- are found to enable high selectivity toward C2 H2 , as determined by density functional theory simulations.

RESUMO

Bifunctional N-donor carboxylate linkers generally afford dia and sql topology coordination networks of general formula ML2 that are based upon the MN2(CO2)2 molecular building block (MBB). Herein, we report on a new N-donor carboxylate linker, ß-(3,4-pyridinedicarboximido)propionate (PyImPr), which afforded Cd(PyImPr)2via reaction of PyImPrH with Cd(acetate)2·2H2O. We observed that, depending upon whether Cd(PyImPr)2 was prepared by layering or solvothermal methods, 2D or 3D supramolecular isomers, respectively, of Cd(PyImPr)2 were isolated. Single crystal X-ray diffraction studies revealed that both supramolecular isomers are comprised of the same carboxylate bridged rod building block, RBB. We were interested to determine if the ethylene moiety of PyImPr could enable structural flexibility. Indeed, open-to-closed structural transformations occurred upon solvent removal for both phases, but they were found to be irreversible. A survey of the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) was conducted to analyse the relative frequency of RBB topologies in related ML2 coordination networks in order to provide insight from a crystal engineering perspective.

RESUMO

Although pyrazine-linked hybrid ultramicroporous materials (HUMs, pore size <7 Å) are benchmark physisorbents for trace carbon dioxide (CO2 ) capture under dry conditions, their affinity for water (H2 O) mitigates their carbon capture performance in humid conditions. Herein, we report on the co-adsorption of H2 O and CO2 by TIFSIX-3-Ni-a high CO2 affinity HUM-and find that slow H2 O sorption kinetics can enable CO2 uptake and release using shortened adsorption cycles with retention of ca. 90 % of dry CO2 uptake. Insight into co-adsorption is provided by in situ infrared spectroscopy and ab initio calculations. The binding sites and sorption mechanisms reveal that both CO2 and H2 O molecules occupy the same ultramicropore through favorable interactions between CO2 and H2 O at low water loading. An energetically favored water network displaces CO2 molecules at higher loading. Our results offer bottom-up design principles and insight into co-adsorption of CO2 and H2 O that is likely to be relevant across the full spectrum of carbon capture sorbents to better understand and address the challenge posed by humidity to gas capture.

RESUMO

Hybrid ultramicroporous materials, HUMs, are comprised of metal cations linked by combinations of inorganic and organic ligands. Their modular nature makes them amenable to crystal engineering studies, which have thus far afforded four HUM platforms (as classified by the inorganic linkers). HUMs are of practical interest because of their benchmark gas separation performance for several industrial gas mixtures. We report herein design and gram-scale synthesis of the prototypal sulfate-linked HUM, the fsc topology coordination network ([Zn(tepb)(SO4 )]n ), SOFOUR-1-Zn, tepb=(tetra(4-pyridyl)benzene). Alignment of the sulfate anions enables strong binding to C2 H2 via O⋅⋅⋅HC interactions but weak CO2 binding, affording a new benchmark for the difference between C2 H2 and CO2 heats of sorption at low loading (ΔQst =24 kJ mol-1 ). Dynamic column breakthrough studies afforded fuel-grade C2 H2 from trace (1 : 99) or 1 : 1 C2 H2 /CO2 mixtures, outperforming its SiF6 2- analogue, SIFSIX-22-Zn.

RESUMO

Pyrazine-linked hybrid ultramicroporous (pore size <7 Å) materials (HUMs) offer benchmark performance for trace carbon capture thanks to strong selectivity for CO2 over small gas molecules, including light hydrocarbons. That the prototypal pyrazine-linked HUMs are amenable to crystal engineering has enabled second generation HUMs to supersede the performance of the parent HUM, SIFSIX-3-Zn, mainly through substitution of the metal and/or the inorganic pillar. Herein, we report that two isostructural aminopyrazine-linked HUMs, MFSIX-17-Ni (17=aminopyrazine; M=Si, Ti), which we had anticipated would offer even stronger affinity for CO2 than their pyrazine analogs, unexpectedly exhibit reduced CO2 affinity but enhanced C2 H2 affinity. MFSIX-17-Ni are consequently the first physisorbents that enable single-step production of polymer-grade ethylene (>99.95 % for SIFSIX-17-Ni) from a ternary equimolar mixture of ethylene, acetylene and CO2 thanks to coadsorption of the latter two gases. We attribute this performance to the very different binding sites in MFSIX-17-Ni versus SIFSIX-3-Zn.

RESUMO

Acetylene (C2 H2 ) capture is a step in a number of industrial processes, but it comes with a high-energy footprint. Although physisorbents have the potential to reduce this energy footprint, they are handicapped by generally poor selectivity versus other relevant gases, such as CO2 and C2 H4 . In the case of CO2 , the respective physicochemical properties are so similar that traditional physisorbents, such as zeolites, silica, and activated carbons cannot differentiate well between CO2 and C2 H2 . Herein, we report that a family of three isostructural, ultramicroporous (<7 Å) diamondoid metal-organic frameworks, [Cu(TMBP)X] (TMBP=3,3',5,5'-tetramethyl-4,4'-bipyrazole), TCuX (X=Cl, Br, I), offer new benchmark C2 H2 /CO2 separation selectivity at ambient temperature and pressure. We attribute this performance to a new type of strong binding site for C2 H2 . Specifically, halogen⋅⋅⋅HC interactions coupled with other noncovalent in a tight binding site is C2 H2 specific versus CO2 . The binding site is distinct from those found in previous benchmark sorbents, which are based on open metal sites or electrostatic interactions enabled by inorganic fluoro or oxo anions.

RESUMO

The high energy footprint of commodity gas purification and increasing demand for gases require new approaches to gas separation. Kinetic separation of gas mixtures through molecular sieving can enable separation by molecular size or shape exclusion. Physisorbents must exhibit the right pore diameter to enable separation, but the 0.3-0.4 nm range relevant to small gas molecules is hard to control. Herein, dehydration of the ultramicroporous metal-organic framework Ca-trimesate, Ca(HBTC)⋅H2 O (H3 BTC=trimesic acid), bnn-1-Ca-H2 O, affords a narrow pore variant, Ca(HBTC), bnn-1-Ca. Whereas bnn-1-Ca-H2 O (pore diameter 0.34 nm) exhibits ultra-high CO2 /N2 , CO2 /CH4 , and C2 H2 /C2 H4 binary selectivity, bnn-1-Ca (pore diameter 0.31 nm) offers ideal selectivity for H2 /CO2 and H2 /N2 under cryogenic conditions. Ca-trimesate, the first physisorbent to exhibit H2 sieving under cryogenic conditions, could be a prototype for a general approach to exert precise control over pore diameter in physisorbents.

RESUMO

Coordination networks that reversibly switch between closed and open phases are of topical interest since their stepped isotherms can offer higher working capacities for gas-storage applications than the related rigid porous coordination networks. To be of practical utility, the pressures at which switching occurs, the gate-opening and gate-closing pressures, must lie between the storage and delivery pressures. Here we study the effect of linker substitution to fine-tune gate-opening and gate-closing pressure. Specifically, three variants of a previously reported pcu-topology MOF, X-pcu-5-Zn, have been prepared: X-pcu-6-Zn, 6=1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane (bpe), X-pcu-7-Zn, 7=1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)acetylene (bpa), and X-pcu-8-Zn, 8=4,4'-azopyridine (apy). Each exhibited switching isotherms but at different gate-opening pressures. The N2 , CO2 , C2 H2 , and C2 H4 adsorption isotherms consistently indicated that the most flexible dipyridyl organic linker, 6, afforded lower gate-opening and gate-closing pressures. This simple design principle enables a rational control of the switching behavior in adsorbent materials.

RESUMO

The metal-organic framework [Y(tbpp)]·nDMF (1) was synthesized from yttrium(III) nitrate and the tritopic linker tris(4'-carboxy[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl)phosphine (H3tbpp). The distance between the coordinating atoms of the carboxylate groups of the extended tridentate phosphine linker is more than 1.8 nm, resulting in an average pore dimension of 0.9 nm in the noninterpenetrated metal-organic framework. The material exhibits high thermal stability and permanent porosity after removal of guest molecules from the one-dimensional pore system. The desolvated compound adsorbs nitrogen, argon, hydrogen, and carbon dioxide. Favorable adsorption of CO2 over N2 is predicted using ideal adsorbed solution theory (IAST). The isosteric enthalpies of adsorption of H2 and CO2 of -7 and -22 kJ mol-1, respectively, are representative for metal-organic frameworks with no accessible strong host-guest binding sites, despite the bifunctional nature of the organic ligand. The absence of strong specific adsorption sites was confirmed by in situ powder synchrotron X-ray diffraction of the reversible isobaric CO2 sorption process. Analysis of the diffraction data indicates that the CO2 molecules in the pores are disordered and nonlocalized. Despite this, it was possible to quantify the evolution of the occupation of the pores. CO2 is adsorbed at an approximately constant below 320 K from 10% loading to full capacity at 195 K.

RESUMO

We report a crystal-engineering study conducted upon a platform of three mixed-linker square lattice (sql) coordination networks of general formula [Zn(Ria)(bphy)] [bphy = 1,2-bis(pyridin-4-yl)hydrazine, H2Ria = 5-position-substituted isophthalic acid, and R = -Br, -NO2, and -OH; compounds 1-3]. Analysis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction data of 1-2 and the simulated crystal structure of 3 revealed that 1-3 are isomorphous and sustained by bilayers of sql networks linked by hydrogen bonds. Although similar pore shapes and sizes exist in 1-3, distinct isotherm shapes (linear and S shape) and uptakes (2.4, 11.6, and 13.3 wt %, respectively) were observed. Ab initio calculations indicated that the distinct water sorption properties can be attributed to the R groups, which offer a range of hydrophilicity. Calculations indicated that the significantly lower experimental uptake in compound 1 can be attributed to a constricted channel. The calculated water-binding sites provide insights into how adsorbed water molecules bond to the pore walls, with the strongest interactions, water-hydroxyl hydrogen bonding, observed for 3. Overall, this study reveals how pore engineering can result in large variations in water sorption properties in an isomorphous family of rigid porous coordination networks.

RESUMO

Porous coordination networks (PCNs) sustained by inorganic anions that serve as linker ligands can offer high selectivity toward specific gases or vapors in gas mixtures. Such inorganic anions are best exemplified by electron-rich fluorinated anions, e.g., SiF62-, TiF62-, and NbOF52-, although sulfate anions have recently been highlighted as inexpensive and earth-friendly alternatives. Herein, we report the use of a rare copper sulfate dimer molecular building block to generate two square lattice, sql, coordination networks which can be prepared via solvent layering or slurrying, CuSO4(1,4-bib)1.5, 1, (1,4-bib = 1,4-bisimidazole benzene) and CuSO4(1,4-bin)1.5, 2, (1,4-bin = 1,4-bisimidazole naphthalene). Variable-temperature SCXRD and PXRD experiments revealed that both sql networks underwent reversible structural transformations due to linker rotations or internetwork displacements. Gas sorption studies conducted upon the narrow-pore phase of CuSO4(1,4-bin)1.5, 2np, found a high calculated 1:99 selectivity for C2H2 over C2H4 (33.01) and CO2 (15.18), as well as strong breakthrough performance. Across-the-board, C3H4 selectivity vs C3H6, CO2, and C3H8 was also observed. Sulfate-based PCNs, although still understudied, appear increasingly likely to offer utility in gas and vapor separations.

RESUMO

The stimulus-responsive behavior of coordination networks (CNs), which switch between closed (nonporous) and open (porous) phases, is of interest because of its potential utility in gas storage and separation. Herein, we report two polymorphs of a new square-lattice (sql) topology CN, X-sql-1-Cu, of formula [Cu(Imibz)2]n (HImibz = {[4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenylimino]methyl}benzoic acid), isolated from the as-synthesized CN X-sql-1-Cu-(MeOH)2·2MeOH, which subsequently transformed to a narrow pore solvate, X-sql-1-Cu-A·MeOH, upon mild activation (drying in air or heating at 333 K under nitrogen). X-sql-1-Cu-A·MeOH contains MeOH in cavities, which was removed through exposure to vacuum for 2 h, yielding the nonporous (closed) phase X-sql-1-Cu-A. In contrast, a more dense polymorph, X-sql-1-Cu-B, was obtained by exposing X-sql-1-Cu-(MeOH)2·2MeOH directly to vacuum for 2 h. Gas sorption studies conducted on X-sql-1-Cu-A and X-sql-1-Cu-B revealed different switching behaviors to two open phases (X-sql-1-Cu·CO2 and X-sql-1-Cu·C2H2), with different gate-opening threshold pressures for CO2 at 195 K and C2H2 at 278 K. Coincident CO2 sorption and in situ powder X-ray diffraction studies at 195 K revealed that X-sql-1-Cu-A transformed to X-sql-1-Cu-B after the first sorption cycle and that the CO2-induced switching transformation was thereafter reversible. The results presented herein provide insights into the relationship between two polymorphs of a CN and the effect of polymorphism upon gas sorption properties. To the best of our knowledge, whereas sql networks such as X-sql-1-Cu are widely studied in terms of their structural and sorption properties, this study represents only the second example of an in-depth study of the sorption properties of polymorphic sql networks.

RESUMO

Herein, we report the crystal structure and guest binding properties of a new two-dimensional (2D) square lattice (sql) topology coordination network, sql-(azpy)(pdia)-Ni, which is comprised of two linker ligands with diazene (azo) moieties, (E)-1,2-di(pyridin-4-yl)diazene(azpy) and (E)-5-(phenyldiazenyl)isophthallate(pdia). sql-(azpy)(pdia)-Ni underwent guest-induced switching between a closed (nonporous) ß phase and several open (porous) α phases, but unlike the clay-like layer expansion to distinct phases previously reported in switching sql networks, a continuum of phases was formed. In effect, sql-(azpy)(pdia)-Ni exhibited elastic-like properties induced by adaptive guest binding. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) studies of the α phases revealed that the structural transformations were enabled by the pendant phenyldiazenyl moiety on the pdia2- ligand. This moiety functioned as a type of hinge to enable parallel slippage of layers and interlayer expansion for the following guests: N,N-dimethylformamide, water, dichloromethane, para-xylene, and ethylbenzene. The slippage angle (interplanar distances) ranged from 54.133° (4.442 Å) in the ß phase to 69.497° (5.492 Å) in the ethylbenzene-included phase. Insight into the accompanying phase transformations was also gained from variable temperature powder XRD studies. Dynamic water vapor sorption studies revealed a stepped isotherm with little hysteresis that was reversible for at least 100 cycles. The isotherm step occurred at ca. 50% relative humidity (RH), the optimal RH value for humidity control.

RESUMO

Chiral metal-organic materials, CMOMs, are of interest as they can offer selective binding sites for chiral guests. Such binding sites can enable CMOMs to serve as chiral crystalline sponges (CCSs) to determine molecular structure and/or purify enantiomers. We recently reported on the chiral recognition properties of a homochiral cationic diamondoid, dia, network {[Ni(S-IDEC)(bipy)(H2O)][NO3]}n (S-IDEC = S-indoline-2-carboxylicate, bipy = 4,4'-bipyridine), CMOM-5[NO3]. The modularity of CMOM-5[NO3] means there are five feasible approaches to fine-tune structures and properties via substitution of one or more of the following components: metal cation (Ni2+); bridging ligand (S-IDEC); linker (bipy); extra-framework anion (NO3-); and terminal ligand (H2O). Herein, we report the effect of anion substitution on the CCS properties of CMOM-5[NO3] by preparing and characterizing {[Ni(S-IDEC)(bipy)(H2O)][BF4]}n, CMOM-5[BF4]. The chiral channels in CMOM-5[BF4] enabled it to function as a CCS for determination of the absolute crystal structures of both enantiomers of three chiral compounds: 1-phenyl-1-butanol (1P1B); methyl mandelate (MM); ethyl mandelate (EM). Chiral resolution experiments revealed CMOM-5[BF4] to be highly selective toward the S-isomers of MM and EM with enantiomeric excess, ee, values of 82.6 and 78.4%, respectively. The ee measured for S-EM surpasses the 64.3% exhibited by [DyNaL(H2O)4] 6H2O and far exceeds that of CMOM-5[NO3] (6.0%). Structural studies of the binding sites in CMOM-5[BF4] provide insight into their high enantioselectivity.

RESUMO

Chiral metal-organic materials (CMOMs), can offer molecular binding sites that mimic the enantioselectivity exhibited by biomolecules and are amenable to systematic fine-tuning of structure and properties. Herein, we report that the reaction of Ni(NO3)2, S-indoline-2-carboxylic acid (S-IDECH), and 4,4'-bipyridine (bipy) afforded a homochiral cationic diamondoid, dia, network, [Ni(S-IDEC)(bipy)(H2O)][NO3], CMOM-5. Composed of rod building blocks (RBBs) cross-linked by bipy linkers, the activated form of CMOM-5 adapted its pore structure to bind four guest molecules, 1-phenyl-1-butanol (1P1B), 4-phenyl-2-butanol (4P2B), 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethanol (MPE), and methyl mandelate (MM), making it an example of a chiral crystalline sponge (CCS). Chiral resolution experiments revealed enantiomeric excess, ee, values of 36.2-93.5%. The structural adaptability of CMOM-5 enabled eight enantiomer@CMOM-5 crystal structures to be determined. The five ordered crystal structures revealed that host-guest hydrogen-bonding interactions are behind the observed enantioselectivity, three of which represent the first crystal structures determined of the ambient liquids R-4P2B, S-4P2B, and R-MPE.

RESUMO

In this work, we report the synthesis, structural characterisation and sorption properties of an 8-fold interpenetrated diamondoid (dia) metal-organic framework (MOF) that is sustained by a new extended linker ligand, [Cd(Imibz)2], X-dia-2-Cd, HImibz or 2 = 4-((4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenylimino)methyl)benzoic acid. X-dia-2-Cd was found to exhibit reversible single-crystal-to-single-crystal (SC-SC) transformations between four distinct phases: an as-synthesised (from N,N-dimethylformamide) wide-pore phase, X-dia-2-Cd-α; a narrow-pore phase, X-dia-2-Cd-ß, formed upon exposure to water; a narrow-pore phase obtained by activation, X-dia-2-Cd-γ; a medium-pore CO2-loaded phase X-dia-2-Cd-δ. While the space group remained constant in the four phases, the cell volumes and calculated void space ranged from 4988.7 Å3 and 47% (X-dia-2-Cd-α), respectively, to 3200.8 Å3 and 9.1% (X-dia-2-Cd-γ), respectively. X-dia-2-Cd-γ also exhibited a water vapour-induced structural transformation to the water-loaded X-dia-2-Cd-ß phase, resulting in an S-shaped sorption isotherm. The inflection point occurred at 18% RH with negligible hysteresis on the desorption profile. Water vapour temperature-humidity swing cycling (60% RH, 300 K to 0% RH, 333 K) indicated hydrolytic stability of X-dia-2-Cd and working capacity was retained after 128 cycles of sorbent regeneration. CO2 (at 195 K) was also observed to induce a structural transformation in X-dia-2-Cd-γ and in situ PXRD studies at 1 bar of CO2, 195 K revealed the formation of X-dia-2-Cd-δ, which exhibited 31% larger unit cell volume than X-dia-2-Cd-γ.
