- Abstract
- Sorption isotherms of methane in Zn-2(bdc)(2)(dabco) are measured up to a pressure of 35 bar in the temperature range between 198-296 K. The methane sorption measurements at 296 K showed an uptake of 1.37 cm(3) cm(-3) at 35 bar. The enthalpy of methane adsorption for Zn-2(bdc)(2) (dabco) estimated by the virial equation is 13.6 kJ mol(-1) at zero coverage. X-ray structure analysis of methane-adsorbed Zn-2(bdc)(2)(dabco) by synchrotron radiation at 90 K revealed that methane molecules occupy three independent sorption sites (A, B, and C) with a stoichiometry of Zn2(bdc)2 (dabco)-6.69CH, which is consistent with the results of the gas sorption measurements at 198 K. In a cavity, eight symmetry-related methane sorption sites A are located near the {Zn-2 (CO2)(4)} paddle-wheel units, while four symmetry-related methane sorption sites B are near the center of the small windows along the a and b axes. Both A and B sites are half-occupied. Methane molecules occupying sites A are not only in van der Waals contact with the paddle-wheel units, but also interact with the phenyl rings of bdc ligands through partial pi-HC interactions. Methane molecules in B sites interact with the side of the phenyl rings through van der Waals interaction. The site C, located at the center of the cavity, is a secondary sorption site; methane molecules occupying sites C are in van der Waals contact with those in sites A and B.
