Reaction of cerium ammonium nitrate and tetrafluoroterephthalic acid in water afforded two new metal-organic frameworks with UiO-66 [F4_UiO-66(Ce)] and MIL-140 [F4_MIL-140A(Ce)] topologies. The two compounds can be obtained in the same experimental conditions, just by varying the amount of acetic acid used as crystallization modulator in the synthesis. Both F4_UiO-66(Ce) and F4_MIL-140A(Ce) feature pores with size < 8 Å, which classifies them as ultramicroporous. Combination of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and magnetic susceptibility measurements revealed that both compounds contain a small amount of Ce(III), which is preferentially accumulated near the surface of the crystallites. The CO<sub>2</sub> sorption properties of F4_UiO-66(Ce) and F4_MIL-140A(Ce) were investigated, finding that they perform better than their Zr-based analogues. F4_MIL-140A(Ce) displays an unusual S-shaped isotherm with steep uptake increase at pressure < 0.2 bar at 298 K. This makes F4_MIL-140A(Ce) exceptionally selective for CO<sub>2</sub> over N<sub>2</sub>: the calculated selectivity, according to the ideal adsorbed solution theory for a 0.15:0.85 mixture at 1 bar and 293 K, is higher than 1900, amongst the highest ever reported for metal-organic frameworks. The calculated isosteric heat of CO<sub>2 </sub>adsorption is in the range of 38-40 kJ mol<sup>-1</sup>, indicating a strong physisorptive character.

In metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), mixed-metal clusters have the opportunity to adsorb hydrogen molecules due to a greater charge density of the metal. Such interactions may subsequently enhance the gravimetric uptake of hydrogen. However, only a few papers have explored the ability of mixed-metal MOFs to increase hydrogen uptake. The present work reveals the preparation of mixed metal metal-organic frameworks M-MOF-5 (where M = Ni2+, Co2+, and Fe2+) (where MOF-5 designates MOFs such as Zn2+ and 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid ligand) using the post-synthetic exchange (PSE) technique. Powder X-ray diffraction patterns and scanning electron microscopy images indicate the presence of crystalline phases after metal exchange, and the inductively coupled plasma–mass spectroscopy analysis confirmed the exchange of metals by means of the PSE technique. The nitrogen adsorption isotherms established the production of microporous M-MOF-5. Although the additional metal ions decreased the surface area, the exchanged materials displayed unique features in the gravimetric uptake of hydrogen. The parent MOF-5 and the metal exchanged materials (Ni-MOF-5, Co-MOF-5, and Fe-MOF-5) demonstrated hydrogen capacities of 1.46, 1.53, 1.53, and 0.99 wt.%, respectively. The metal-exchanged Ni-MOF-5 and Co-MOF-5 revealed slightly higher H2 uptake in comparison with MOF-5; however, the Fe-MOF-5 showed a decrease in uptake due to partial discrete complex formation (discrete complexes with one or more metal ions) with less crystalline nature. The Sips model was found to be excellent in describing the H2 adsorption isotherms with a correlation coefficient ≅ 1. The unique hydrogen uptakes of Ni− and Co-MOF-5 shown in this study pave the way for further improvement in hydrogen uptake.

Abstract Computational chemistry is invaluable in calculating macroscopic and microscopic details of systems application in chemical industries which are involved in carbon capture through precombustion, post-combustion and oxy combustion technologies. This review discusses the role of computational chemistry for adsorption studies of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) which can be utilized for carbon capture. Principles of quantum mechanics–molecular mechanics are used to devise the electrostatic charges and isotherm parameters on the MOFs. MOFs for carbon capture which can be compatible and which can withstand the severity in chemical industries can be effectively studied using grand canonical Monte Carlo simulation by selecting appropriate force fields. Since flue gases contain a host of other gases in addition to oxides of carbon, capture by MOFs has to be carefully modelled and the software useful for this study are mentioned in this review. The simulated adsorption isotherms should be compared with experimental adsorption isotherms to validate the study. The adsorption model for carbon dioxide adsorption on MOFs is generally reported to be type I reversible isotherm and the kinetics is in good agreement with pseudo-second-order kinetics.
