<p>Metal−organic frameworks (MOFs) with coordinatively unsaturated metal sites are appealing as adsorbent materials due to their tunable functionality and ability to selectively bind small molecules. Through the use of computational screening methods based on periodic density functional theory, we investigate O<sub>2</sub> and N<sub>2</sub> adsorption at the coordinatively unsaturated metal sites of several MOF families. A variety of design handles are identified that can be used to modify the redox activity of the metal centers, including changing the functionalization of the linkers (replacing oxido donors with sulfido donors), anion exchange of bridging ligands (considering μ-Br<sup>-</sup>, μ-Cl<sup>-</sup>, μ-F<sup>-</sup>, μ-SH<sup>-</sup>, or μ-OH<sup>-</sup> groups), and altering the formal oxidation state of the metal. As a result, we show that it is possible to tune the O<sub>2</sub> affinity at the open metal sites of MOFs for applications involving the strong and/or selective binding of O<sub>2</sub>. In contrast with O<sub>2</sub> adsorption, N<sub>2</sub> adsorption at open metal sites is predicted to be relatively weak across the MOF dataset, with the exception of MOFs containing synthetically elusive V<sup>2+</sup> open metal sites. As one example from the screening study, we predict that exchanging the μ-Cl<sup>-</sup> ligands of M<sub>2</sub>Cl<sub>2</sub>(BBTA) (H<sub>2</sub>BBTA = 1<i>H</i>,5<i>H</i>-benzo(1,2-d:4,5-d′)bistriazole) with μ-OH<sup>-</sup> groups would significantly enhance the strength of O<sub>2</sub> adsorption at the open metal sites without a corresponding increase in the N<sub>2</sub> affinity. Experimental investigation of Co<sub>2</sub>Cl<sub>2</sub>(BBTA) and Co<sub>2</sub>(OH)<sub>2</sub>(BBTA) confirms that the former exhibits only weak physisorption, whereas the latter is capable of chemisorbing O<sub>2</sub> at room temperature. The chemisorption behavior is attributed to the greater electron-donating character of the μ-OH<sup>-</sup><sub> </sub>ligands and the presence of H-bonding interactions between the μ-OH<sup>-</sup> bridging ligands and the O<sub>2</sub> adsorbate.</p>

A variety of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) were synthesized and evaluated for their iodine adsorption capacity. Out of the MOFs tested, ZIF-8 showed the most promising result with an iodine vapor uptake of 876.6 mg/g. ZIF-8 was then incorporated into a polymer, polyethersulfone (PES), at different proportions to prepare mixed matrix membranes (MMMs), which were then used to perform further iodine adsorption experiments. With a mixing ratio of 40 wt % of ZIF-8, the iodine adsorption capacity reached 1387.6 mg/g, wherein an astounding 60% improvement in adsorption was seen with the MMMs prepared compared to the original ZIF-8 powder.
