Abstract

A post-synthetic modification approach was proposed to introduce nonpolar unit ferrocene into a C₂H₂-selective MOF to enhance C₂H₆ selectivity. Benefiting from the nonpolar moieties and suitable pore confinement, the obtained materials exhibited higher selectivity for C₂H₆ and C₂H₂ over C₂H₄, achieving one-step purification of high-purity C₂H₄ from a ternary C₂ mixture.
