Removal of chlorine gas by an amine functionalized metal–organic framework via electrophilic aromatic substitution

Abstract

Here we report the removal of chlorine gas from air via a reaction with an amine functionalized metal–organic framework (MOF). It is found that UiO-66-NH2 has the ability to remove 1.24 g of Cl2 per g of MOF via an electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction producing HCl, which is subsequently neutralized by the MOF.
