What is Near-Perfect CO2/CH4 Selectivity Achieved through Reversible Guest Templating in the Flexible Metal–Organic Framework Co(bdp) about?

Metal-organic frameworks are among the most promising materials for industrial gas separations, including the removal of carbon dioxide from natural gas, although substantial improvements in adsorption selectivity are still sought. Herein, we use equilibrium adsorption experiments to demonstrate that the flexible metal-organic framework Co(bdp) (bdp 2-= 1,4benzenedipyrazolate) exhibits a large CO 2 adsorption capacity and approaches complete exclusion of CH 4 under 50:50 mixtures of the two gases, leading to outstanding CO 2 /CH 4 selectivity under these conditions. In situ powder X-ray diffraction data indicate that this selectivity arises from reversible guest templating, in which the framework expands to form a CO 2 clathrate and then collapses to the non-templated phase upon desorption. Under an atmosphere dominated by CH 4 , Co(bdp) adsorbs minor amounts of CH 4 along with CO 2 , highlighting the importance of studying all relevant pressure and composition ranges via multicomponent measurements when examining mixed-gas selectivity in structurally flexible materials. Altogether, these results show that Co(bdp) may be a promising CO 2 /CH 4 separation material and provide insigh
