Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 9Synthesis of Benzotriazole Functionalized ZIF-8 by Postsynthetic Modification for Enhanced CH4 and CO2 Uptakes(Elsevier, 2022-08) Erkartal, Mustafa; Incekara, Kaan; Sen, UnalIn this work, a series of functionalized ZIF-8 were synthesized via incorporation of benzotriazole ligands into the framework with a post-synthetic method. The crystal structure and porosity were preserved for all functionalized samples. Although a relatively low percentage of ligand exchange (approximately 10-22%) was observed due to steric and kinetic effects, a remarkable improvement was found in CO2 and CH4 uptake capacities due to the incorporation of more polar N sites into the structure and the change in pore size of the frameworks. The resulting ZIF-8-S5 exhibited 45.17(CO2) and 15.08 (CH4) cm(3) g(-1) at 273 K under 1.2 bar, which corresponds to an enhancement of 20 and 35% compared to pristine ZIF-8. Further, all functionalized samples showed the significant improvement of selective CO2 over N-2.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 7Extreme Flexibility and Unusual Piezomechanical Properties of Zinc-Alkyl Metal-Organic Frameworks: A First Principles Study(Elsevier, 2023-06) Erkartal, MustafaThe behavior of three Zn-alkyl-based MOFs, ZnGA (Zn-Glutarate), ZnAA (Zn-Adipate), and ZAG-4 (Zinc Alky Gate), under hydrostatic compression has been investigated using first-principles DFT simulation, which has proven its reliability in previous studies. Due to the lack of the high pressure experimental data for ZnGA and ZnAA, the reliability of the simulation parameters was tested by taking ZAG-4, whose structural flexibility has been previously reported experimentally and computationally, as a benchmark. All three structures were found to exhibit elastic deformation under pressure up to 15 GPa, due to the flexibility of the alkyl chains that allow the structures to move without disrupting the metal-ligand coordination. Interestingly, the structures exhibit different mechanical properties, with ZAG-4 showing negative linear compressibility (NLC), ZnGA showing positive linear compressibility (PLC), and ZnAA showing zero linear compressibility (ZLC). The NLC in ZAG-4 is attributed to the proton transfer between phosphonate oxygen and water in the structure as previously reported, while the ZLC in ZnAA is due to a dumbbell-like structural motif formed by substructures displaying both NLC and PLC.
