H2, N2, CO, and CO2 sorption properties of a series of robust sodalite-type microporous coordination polymers

Inorg Chem. 2006 Mar 20;45(6):2397-9. doi: 10.1021/ic060049r.

Abstract

H2, N2, CO, and CO2 are readily incorporated in the porous, 3D sodalitic frameworks of coordination polymers of the [ML2]n type, with M = Pd(II) or Cu(II) and HL = 2-hydroxypyrimidine or 4-hydroxypyrimidine. The metal ion and ligand functionalization modulate their sorption properties, making these materials suitable for gas storage and separation purposes.
