Free energy analysis for adsorption-induced lattice transition of flexible coordination framework.

چکیده
We conduct grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations and free energy analysis for a gate adsorption phenomenon, which is experimentally observed in flexible frameworks of porous coordination polymers. Our calculations demonstrate that the stabilization provided by the guest adsorption drives the structural transition, surmounting the energy cost in creating the adsorption space due to the movement of the host framework. Furthermore, the existence of an energy barrier between two local minima in the free-energy landscape is found to result in hysteretic adsorption.

Simulation study for adsorption-induced structural transition in stacked-layer porous coordination polymers: equilibrium and hysteretic adsorption behaviors.
We conduct grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations and a free-energy analysis for a simplified model of a stacked-layer porous coordination polymer to understand the gate phenomenon, which is a structural transition of a host framework induced by the adsorption of guest particles. Our calculations demonstrate that stabilization of the system due to the guest adsorption causes host deformation u...
متن کاملThermodynamics of guest-induced structural transitions in hybrid organic-inorganic frameworks.
We provide a general thermodynamic framework for the understanding of guest-induced structural transitions in hybrid organic-inorganic materials. The method is based on the analysis of experimental adsorption isotherms. It allows the determination of the free energy differences between host structures involved in guest-induced transitions, especially hard to obtain experimentally. We discuss th...

Coordination of Cu+ ions adsorbed on plausible sites of a silicalite-2 lattice has been investigated computationally via hybrid density functional theory method at the B3LYP/6-311+G* and B3LYP/Def2-TZVP levels of theory using molecular models of the active site. The symmetrical coordination of Cu+ ions to almost five oxygen atoms of the all-silica framework in six-membered ring (6MR) sites of t...
متن کاملA generalized adsorption-phase transition model to describe adsorption rates in flexible metal organic framework RPM3-Zn.
Flexible gate-opening metal organic frameworks (GO-MOFs) expand or contract to minimize the overall free energy of the system upon accommodation of an adsorbate. The thermodynamics of the GO process are well described by a number of models, but the kinetics of the process are relatively unexplored. A flexible GO-MOF, RPM3-Zn, exhibits a significant induction period for opening by N2 and Ar at l...
متن کاملStrain and coordination effects in the adsorption properties of early transition metals
Strain and coordination effects in the adsorption on early transition metals were studied using density functional theory. We show that, in contrast to late transition metals, early transition metal surfaces with a less than half-filled local d-band exhibit lower adsorption energies upon lattice expansion and on low-coordinated sites, in agreement with predictions based on the d-band model. Thi...
