Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of gas adsorption and separation technology, specifically to an acetic acid-linked bendable trinuclear cluster Mg-MOF, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Separating acetylene (C2H2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) is a key challenge in natural gas purification, acetylene production (such as the calcium carbide process or hydrocarbon cracking), and industrial waste gas treatment. The core difficulty lies in the high similarity of their physical properties (similar molecular sizes and boiling / sublimation points), leading to low efficiency or extremely high energy consumption in traditional separation technologies based on size sieving or volatility differences (such as conventional distillation, physical adsorption, and ordinary membrane separation), making it difficult to achieve selective separation economically and efficiently.
[0003] Current mainstream technologies primarily utilize the differences in chemical properties between the two. For example, chemical absorption methods (such as amine solutions) can selectively remove CO2, but they face risks of solvent degradation and acetylene loss. Cryogenic separation, while theoretically feasible, lacks economic viability due to its ultra-low operating temperature and enormous energy consumption. Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs), with their high specific surface area, tunable pore structure, and high designability, have become a research hotspot in gas separation. However, most existing MOFs suffer from the difficulty of balancing gas adsorption capacity and separation ratio. Therefore, developing separation materials and processes that combine high capacity, high selectivity, low energy consumption, and long-term stability remains a bottleneck that urgently needs to be overcome in this field. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this invention provides an acetic acid-linked bend-shaped trinuclear cluster-based Mg-MOF, its preparation method, and its applications. The acetic acid-linked bend-shaped trinuclear cluster-based Mg-MOF of this invention belongs to the monoclinic crystal system, and its chemical formula is: C 44 H 29 Mg3O 16 P2, space group C2 / c, cell parameters: a=24.586(3)Å, b=15.2058(19)Å, c=24.410(4)Å, α=90°, β=117.603(4)°, γ=90°, V=8087(2)Å 3Z=4, F(000)=1948.0. It is prepared by solvothermal reaction using soluble magnesium salt as magnesium source and H3PTO as organic ligand. The acetic acid-linked bendable trinuclear cluster Mg-MOF of the present invention, its preparation method and application have excellent stability and high selectivity. It not only solves the problems of short lifespan and reduced separation efficiency caused by structural instability of existing metal-organic framework materials in practical applications, but also achieves a breakthrough separation selectivity for acetylene and carbon dioxide mixtures through the synergistic CH···π and CH···O dual interaction mechanism (theoretically calculated selective separation ratio of equimolar amounts of C2H2 and CO2 mixture is 2.65), providing an innovative material with both high stability and high separation efficiency for industrial acetylene purification.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: The first objective of this invention is to provide an acetic acid-linked, bend-shaped, trinuclear cluster-based Mg-MOF, belonging to the monoclinic crystal system, with the chemical formula: C 44 H 29 Mg3O 16 P2, space group C2 / c, cell parameters: a=24.586(3)Å, b=15.2058(19)Å, c=24.410(4)Å, α=90°, β=117.603(4)°, γ=90°, V=8087(2)Å 3 Z=4, F(000)=1948.0.
[0006] Preferably, the BET specific surface area of the acetic acid-linked bendable trinuclear cluster-based Mg-MOF is 992.1 cm². 2 / g, actual pore volume is 0.52cm³ 3 / g.
[0007] A second objective of this invention is to provide a method for preparing the above-mentioned acetic acid-linked bendable trinuclear cluster-based Mg-MOF, comprising the following steps: S1. N,N-Dimethylformamide, acetonitrile, and acetic acid are mixed to obtain a mixed solvent. N,N-Dimethylformamide is the main solvent, which can provide solubility and a stable reaction environment with a high boiling point. Acetonitrile is used as an auxiliary solvent to reduce the competitive coordination effect of DMF and adjust the solvent properties. Acetic acid can affect the formation of MOF crystal structure, mainly by providing a specific coordination environment to control the morphology or structure of the crystal.
[0008] S2. Phosphorus trioxide and soluble magnesium salt are dissolved together in a mixed solvent and subjected to a solvothermal reaction. During the solvothermal reaction, phosphorus trioxide becomes a strong Lewis base after the removal of a proton, while magnesium ions become Lewis acids. Under solvothermal conditions, the two can form coordinate bonds and form a 3D framework material through the difference in ligand geometry, resulting in acetic acid-linked bent-angle trinuclear cluster Mg-MOF.
[0009] Preferably, the molar ratio of tris(p-carboxyphenyl)phosphine oxide to soluble magnesium salt is 0.2:1.
[0010] Preferably, the volume ratio of N,N-dimethylformamide, acetonitrile, and acetic acid is 2:2:0.5.
[0011] Preferably, the solvothermal reaction conditions are: reacting at 120°C for 3 to 4 days.
[0012] A third objective of this invention is to provide the application of the aforementioned acetic acid-linked bendable trinuclear cluster Mg-MOF in the preparation of acetylene adsorption and separation agents.
[0013] Preferably, acetic acid-linked bendable trinuclear cluster Mg-MOF is used for the adsorption and separation of a mixture of acetylene and carbon dioxide.
[0014] Preferably, the acetic acid-linked bend-shaped trinuclear cluster Mg-MOF is activated before adsorbing and separating the mixed gas of acetylene and carbon dioxide. The activation process is as follows: the acetic acid-linked bend-shaped trinuclear cluster Mg-MOF is immersed in acetonitrile, and the acetonitrile is replaced every 12 hours. After 4 days of continuous replacement, it is placed in a vacuum at 60℃~80℃ for 10h~12h to obtain activated acetic acid-linked bend-shaped trinuclear cluster Mg-MOF.
[0015] Preferably, activated acetic acid-linked bend-shaped trinuclear cluster Mg-MOF selectively adsorbs acetylene from a mixture of acetylene and carbon dioxide.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. This invention provides a method for preparing acetic acid-linked bend-shaped trinuclear cluster-based Mg-MOF. This material belongs to the monoclinic crystal system and has the chemical formula: C 44 H 29 Mg3O 16 P2; Space group C2 / c, cell parameters: a=24.586(3)Å, b=15.2058(19)Å, c=24.410(4)Å, α=90°, β=117.603(4)°, γ=90°, V=8087(2)Å 3Z=4, F(000)=1948.0. The acetic acid-linked bend-shaped trinuclear cluster Mg-MOF of the present invention exhibits excellent stability and high selectivity. This is because the acetic acid-linked bend-shaped trinuclear cluster Mg-MOF has a pore structure and functional groups with highly efficient C2H2 adsorption bonding sites, achieving efficient separation of acetylene and carbon dioxide, and providing a better solution in this field.
[0017] This invention introduces a P=O functional group and abundant benzene rings onto the tris(p-carboxyphenyl)phosphine oxide organic ligand, enabling the π electrons on the acetylene molecule and the benzene ring of the ligand to form a CH···π interaction, while forming a CH···O interaction with the oxygen atom in the P=O functional group. The two mutually promote and synergistically enhance the selectivity of C2H2 molecules, achieving efficient separation of C2H2 and CO2 mixed gases. This provides a new approach for the separation of C2H2 and CO2 mixed gases and has great application potential in the industrial application of acetylene purification.
[0018] 2. This invention provides a method for preparing an acetic acid-linked bend-shaped trinuclear cluster-based Mg-MOF. N,N-dimethylformamide, acetonitrile, and acetic acid are mixed to obtain a mixed solvent. Phosphine trioxide and a soluble magnesium salt are dissolved together in the mixed solvent, and a solvothermal reaction is carried out to obtain the acetic acid-linked bend-shaped trinuclear cluster-based Mg-MOF. The inorganic secondary building unit of this acetic acid-linked bend-shaped trinuclear cluster-based Mg-MOF is a bend-shaped trinuclear cluster: three Mg... 2+ All are six-coordinate octahedral configurations, in which each Mg 2+ The surrounding structure consists of four oxygen atoms from the tri(p-carboxyphenyl)phosphine oxide ligand, terminally coordinated water molecules, and two carboxyl oxygen atoms from acetic acid acting as μ2-O bonds connecting three Mg atoms. 2+ And forming a curved trinuclear cluster, such as Figure 1 The left figure shows the framework constructed in this way. The pores are non-uniform in polarity and have an electrostatic potential gradient, which gives it high density and specific orientation of action sites. This provides a good pore size and pore chemical environment for the adsorption and separation of gas molecules, and offers a new approach for the separation of mixed gases such as C2H2 and CO2.

[0028] To address the problem that most existing metal-organic framework materials suffer from poor stability and are difficult to use in practical applications, this invention provides an acetic acid-linked, bend-angled, trinuclear cluster-based Mg-MOF. This material belongs to the monoclinic crystal system and has the chemical formula: C 44 H 29 Mg3O 16P2; space group C2 / c, cell parameters: a=24.586(3)Å, b=15.2058(19)Å, c=24.410(4)Å, α=90°, β=117.603(4)°, γ=90°, V=8087(2)Å 3 Z=4, F(000)=1948.0.

After the bed temperature was lowered to 298 K, a mixed gas C2H2 / CO2 (50:50, v / v) was introduced (flow rate: 2 mL / min).
