Efficient separation of C2 hydrocarbons in a permanently porous hydrogen-bonded organic framework†
Abstract
A highly robust porous hydrogen-bonded organic framework (HOF) constructed by 4,4′,4′′-benzene-1,3,5-triyl-tris(benzoic acid) not only achieves the highest uptakes of ethylene and ethane among the HOF materials, but also exhibits unusual adsorption selectivity of C2H6 over other C2 gases. Besides, it exhibits the second highest acetylene uptake among all the reported HOF materials.
