The microporous MOF MIL-140B can separate hexane isomers according to the degree of branching, linear >mono-branched >di-branched, with a remarkably high selectivity up to 10 at 343 K. GCMC simulations confirm the origins of the molecular separation.

Novel bimetallic metal–organic framework nanocomposites were fabricated by a facile yet efficient method. The as-prepared nanomaterial exhibited high sensitivity and high selectivity toward phosphopeptides and good reusability of five cycles for enriching phosphopeptides.

<p> In this work, we proposed multi-scale screening, which employs both molecular and process-level models, to identify high-performing MOFs for energy-efficient separation of SF$_6$ from SF$_6$ and N$_2$ mixture. Grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations were combined with ideal adsorption process simulation to computationally screen 14,000 metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for adsorptive separation of SF$_6$ \/ N$_2$. More than 150 high-performing MOFs were identified based on the results from GCMC simulations at the pressure and vacuum swing conditions, and subsequently evaluated using the ideal adsorption process simulation. High-performing MOFs selected for the VSA conditions are able to achieve the 90 \% target purity level of SF$_6$ but none of the selected MOFs for PSA conditions could. Cascade PSA configuration was proposed and adopted to improve the purity level of the separated SF$_6$. Cascade PSA configuration was also adopted to improve the purity. In the pump efficiency scenarios of 80, 20, and 10 \%, the VSA and cascade PSA cases were compared, which concluded 10 \% scenario prefers the PSA case whereas the VSA case is favored in the others. Top-performing MOFs identified from the multi-scale computational approach were found to be able to produce 90\% purity SF$_6$ with 0.10 - 0.4 and 0.5 - 1.4 MJ per kg of SF$_6$ for VSA and PSA, respectively.<br></p>

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) encompass a rapidly expanding class of materials with diverse potential applications including gas storage, molecular separation, sensing and catalysis. So-called ‘rod MOFs’, which comprise infinitely extended 1D secondary building units (SBUs), represent an underexplored subclass of MOF. Further, porphyrins are considered privileged ligands for MOF synthesis due to their tunable redox and photophysical properties. In this study, the CuII complex of 5,15-bis(4-carboxyphenyl)-10,20-diphenylporphyrin (H2L-CuII, where H2 refers to the ligand’s carboxyl H atoms) is used to prepare two new 2D porphyrinic rod MOFs PROD-1 and PROD-2. Single-crystal X-ray analysis reveals that these frameworks feature 1D MnII- or CoII-based rod-like SBUs that are coordinated by labile solvent molecules and photoactive porphyrin moieties. Both materials were characterised using infrared (IR) spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The structural attributes of PROD-1 and PROD-2 render them promising materials for future photocatalytic investigations.
