Abstract

Coordination polymers (CPs) or metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted considerable attention because of the tunable diversity of structures and functions. A 4,4'-bipyridine molecule, which is a simple, linear, exobidentate, and rigid ligand molecule, can construct two-dimensional (2D) square grid type CPs. Only the 2D-CPs with appropriate metal cations and counter anions exhibit flexibility and adsorb gas with a gate mechanism and these 2D-CPs are called elastic layer-structured metal-organic frameworks (ELMs). Such a unique property can make it possible to overcome the dilemma of strong adsorption and easy desorption, which is one of the ideal properties for practical adsorbents.
Keywords: porous coordination polymer (PCP); metal-organic framework (MOF); gas adsorption; gas separation; structural transformation; gate phenomena; elastic layer‑structure; clathrate formation porous coordination polymer (PCP); metal-organic framework (MOF); gas adsorption; gas separation; structural transformation; gate phenomena; elastic layer‑structure; clathrate formation
