概要

Post-synthetic ligand exchange (PSE) is a versatile and powerful tool for installing functional groups into metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Exposing MOFs to solutions containing triazole- and tetrazole-functionalized ligands can incorporate these heterocyclic moieties into Zr-MOFs through PSE processes.

Abstract

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of porous materials that are formed through coordination bonds between metal clusters and organic ligands. Given their coordinative nature, the organic ligands and strut framework can be readily removed from the MOF and/or exchanged with other coordinative molecules. By introducing target ligands to MOF-containing solutions, functionalized MOFs can be obtained with new chemical tags via a process called post-synthetic ligand exchange (PSE). PSE is a straightforward and practical approach that enables the preparation of a wide range of MOFs with new chemical tags via a solid-solution equilibrium process. Furthermore, PSE can be performed at room temperature, allowing the incorporation of thermally unstable ligands into MOFs. In this work, we demonstrate the practicality of PSE by using heterocyclic triazole- and tetrazole-containing ligands to functionalize a Zr-based MOF (UiO-66; UiO = University of Oslo). After digestion, the functionalized MOFs are characterized via various techniques, including powder X-ray diffraction and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

Introduction

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are three-dimensional porous materials that are formed through coordination bonds between metal clusters and multi-topic organic ligands. MOFs have garnered significant attention due to their permanent porosity, low density, and ability to associate organic and inorganic components, which enables diverse applications¹^,². Moreover, the vast range of metal nodes and strut organic linkers offer MOFs theoretically unlimited structural combinations. Even with identical framework structures, MOFs' physical and chemical properties can be modified through ligand functionalization with chemical tags. This modification process offers a promising route to tailor the properties of MOFs for specific applications³^,⁴^,⁵^,⁶^,⁷^,⁸^,⁹.

Both the pre-functionalization of ligands prior to MOF synthesis and post-synthetic modification (PSM) of MOFs have been employed to introduce and/or modify functional groups in MOF ligands¹⁰^,¹¹. In particular, covalent PSMs have been extensively studied to introduce new functional groups and generate a range of MOFs with diverse functionalities¹²^,¹³^,¹⁴. For instance, UiO-66-NH₂ can be converted to amide-functionalized UiO-66-AMs with different chain lengths (ranging from the shortest acetamide to the longest n-hexyl amide) through acylation reactions with appropriate acyl halides (such as acetyl chloride or n-hexanoyl chloride)¹⁵^,¹⁶. This approach demonstrates the versatility of covalent PSMs to introduce specific functional groups onto MOF ligands, paving the way for a broad range of applications.

In addition to covalent PSMs, post-synthetic ligand exchange (PSE) is a promising strategy for modifying MOFs (Figure 1). Since MOFs are composed of coordination bonds between metals and ligands (such as carboxylates), these coordination bonds can be replaced with external ligands from a solution. Exposing MOFs to a solution containing the desired ligand with chemical tags can be incorporated into the MOFs via PSE¹⁷^,¹⁸^,¹⁹^,²⁰^,²¹^,²². Since the PSE process is accelerated by the existence of coordinative solvents, the phenomenon is also called solvent-assisted ligand exchange (SALE)²³^,²⁴. This approach offers a flexible and facile method for functionalizing MOFs with a wide range of external ligands, enabling a broad spectrum of applications²⁵^,²⁶^,²⁷^,²⁸^,²⁹.

The progress of the PSE process can be controlled by adjusting the ligand ratio, exchange temperature, and time. Notably, room temperature PSE can be employed to obtain functionalized MOFs by exchanging ligands from a solution into MOF solids²⁰. The PSE strategy is particularly useful for introducing both thermally unstable functional groups (such as azido groups) and coordinative functional groups (such as phenol groups) into MOF structures¹⁸. In addition, the PSE strategy has been applied to various MOFs with metal and coordination bond variations. This exchange is a universal process in the chemistry of MOFs³⁰^,³¹^,³². In this study, we present a detailed protocol for PSE to obtain functionalized MOFs from pristine, non-functionalized MOFs, and we provide a characterization strategy to confirm successful functionalization of the MOFs. This method demonstrates the versatility and convenience of PSE for modifying MOFs with diverse functional groups.

Tetrazole-containing benzene-1,4-dicarboxylic acid (H₂BDC-Tetrazole)³³, and triazole-containing benzene-1,4-dicarboxylic acid (H₂BDC-Triazole) are synthesized as target ligands and utilized in the PSE of UiO-66 MOFs to obtain novel, coordination-free, triazole-containing MOFs. Both triazoles and tetrazoles possess acidic N-H protons on their heterocyclic rings and can coordinate with metal cations, thus enabling their use in constructing MOFs³⁴^,³⁵. However, there are limited studies on incorporating coordination-free tetrazoles and triazoles into MOFs and related structures. In case of triazole-functionalized Zr-MOFs, UiO-68 type MOFs were investigated to photophysical properties through direct solvothermal synthesis with benzotriazole functionalities³⁶. For tetrazole-functionalized Zr-MOFs, the mixed direct synthesis was employed³³. These heterocycle-functionalized MOFs could provide potential coordinating sites in MOF pores for catalysis, selective molecular uptake by binding affinity, and energy-related applications, such as proton conduction in fuel cells.

Protocol

The reagents required to prepare MOFs and the ligands are listed in the Table of Materials.

1. Setting up the post-synthetic ligand exchange (PSE) process

Completely dry the pre-synthesized UiO-66 MOFs under vacuum to remove any unreacted metal-salts and ligands in the pores, and remaining solvent residues overnight.
NOTE: See Supplementary File 1 for the synthesis procedure of UiO-66 MOFs.
Prepare functionalized ligands, H₂BDC-Triazole, and H₂BDC-Tetrazole (see Supplementary File 1 for the preparation process; Supplementary Figure 1 and Supplementary Figure 2 for characterization) in an isolated state and fully dry under vacuum overnight.
Prepare a 4% potassium hydroxide (KOH) aqueous solution by dissolving potassium hydroxide in deionized water.
Perform the PSE process in 20 mL scintillation vials with polypropylene (PP) caps (see Table of Materials).
Measure the H₂BDC-Triazole (23.3 mg, 0.1 mmol) or H₂BDC-Tetrazole (23.4 mg, 0.1 mmol) and place into the scintillation vial.
Dissolve the H₂BDC ligand in aqueous solution. Use a glass pipette to transfer 1.0 mL of the 4% KOH aqueous solution into the scintillation vial containing BDC-Triazole or BDC-Tetrazole.
CAUTION: The 4% KOH aqueous solution is highly basic. Avoid all forms of contact and wear personal protective equipment.
Sonicate the mixture until all the solids have fully dissolved.
Neutralize the solution to pH 7. Use a glass pipette to transfer 1 M hydrochloric acid (HCl) aqueous solution with stirring into the scintillation vial containing dicarboxylate until pH 7 is reached. Measure the pH either by pH paper (and its color) or a pH meter.
NOTE: It is crucial to maintain a pH of 7 during the exchange process, since MOFs are typically unstable under basic conditions (>pH 7), and the BDC ligand is not soluble under acidic conditions (<pH 7). Approximately 1.5 mL of 1 M HCl aqueous solution is required to neutralize BDC-Triazole or BDC-Tetrazole-containing solution.
Add MOFs to the dicarboxylate solution and incubate. Add UiO-66 MOF (33 mg, 0.02 mmol) to the scintillation vial containing pH 7 solution.
NOTE: At pH 7, UiO-66 MOF particles are not soluble in water, resulting in their suspension in water.
Incubate the scintillation vial containing the MOF and ligand in a shaker at 120 rpm and at room temperature for 24 h.
NOTE: Stirring can be used as an alternative to shaker-incubation for the PSE process. However, caution should be taken, since physical contact between the magnetic stirring bar and MOFs can result in cracking or breaking of the MOF particles.

2. Isolating the exchanged MOF and washing process

After incubation, isolate the solid MOF from the mixture by centrifugation (1,166 x g, 5 min, room temperature).
Add fresh methanol (10 mL) to the obtained solid MOF and shake the mixture to form a heterogeneous mixture to dissolve the remaining unexchanged BDC ligands.
Isolate the solid that was isolated by centrifugation (1,166 x g, 5 min, room temperature).
Repeat steps 2.2-2.3 two more times for a total of three washing cycles.
Fully dry the exchanged MOF solid under a vacuum for overnight after the last washing.

3. Characterization of the MOF by powder x-ray diffraction (PXRD)

Transfer approximately 10 mg of the exchanged MOF solid to a PXRD sample holder (see Table of Materials).
Place the sample holder in the diffractometer.
Collect the PXRD pattern (Figure 2) in the 2θ range from 5° to 30°.
Compare the obtained data to the parent UiO-66 MOF and the simulated pattern.

4. Characterization of the MOF by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) after digestion

Transfer approximately 30 mg of the exchanged MOF solid to a fresh 4 mL vial.
Use a micropipette to transfer 400 µL of DMSO-d₆ to the MOF sample.
Use a micropipette to transfer 200 µL of 4.14 M NH₄F/D₂O solution to a DMSO-d₆ suspension of MOF powder.
NOTE: An aqueous solution of approximately 40% HF can be used instead of the NH₄F/D₂O solution. In this case, a significant H₂O peak is observed in the NMR. However, clearer digestion is possible in the case of HF digestion.
CAUTION: HF is highly toxic to the body and central nervous system. All forms of contact should be avoided, work should be performed in a fume hood, and personal protective equipment should be worn.
Sonicate the heterogeneous mixture for 30 min until the MOF is dissolved in the dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)-D₂O mixed solvent after digestion.
Remove any remaining insoluble solids by filtering the solution through a polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) syringe filter (Φ 13 mm, 0.45 µm pore; see Table of Materials) while transferring it from the 4 mL vial to an NMR tube.
Place the NMR tube in the NMR machine. Collect the NMR data (Figure 3).

Representative Results

The successful synthesis of exchanged UiO-66 MOFs, UiO-66-Triazole, and UiO-66-Tetrazole produced colorless microcrystalline solids. Both H₂BDC-Triazole and H₂BDC-Tetrazole ligands also exhibited a colorless solid state. The standard method used to determine the success of the exchange involved measuring the PXRD patterns and comparing the crystallinity of the sample with pristine UiO-66 MOF. Figure 2 displays the PXRD patterns of exchanged UiO-66-Triazole and UiO-66-Tetrazole, along with pristine UiO-66 and simulated data. The simulated PXRD pattern was generated from the reported crystal structure of the target MOFs. Since ligand exchange does not impact the structure of the framework, the position of reflection peaks, relative intensity, and broadness were compared and matched with pristine UiO-66 MOFs, and the baseline was flat (Figure 2). The stability of exchanged MOFs was investigated with PXRD pattern changes. Overall, both UiO-66-Triazole and UiO-66-Tetrazole perfectly retained their crystallinity under aqueous conditions and acidic 1 M HCl conditions. However, total decompositions of both UiO-66-Triazole and UiO-66-Tetrazole were observed after treatment with 1 M NaOH solution (Supplementary Figure 3).

To determine the exchange ratio of UiO-66-Triazole and UiO-66-Tetrazole, ¹H NMR measurement was performed on the Zr-based MOFs, which were digested in fluoride-containing solution. Aqueous HF solution and NH₄F solution have been widely used to destruct the UiO-66 framework³⁷^,³⁸^,³⁹. Figure 3 and Supplementary Figure 4 display the ¹H NMR patterns of exchanged UiO-66-Triazole and UiO-66-Tetrazole obtained from NH₄F digestion. The integration of non-functionalized BDC (black circle from pristine MOF) and BDC-Triazole (blue circle) or BDC-Tetrazole (red circle) was compared to determine the exchange ratio. Furthermore, the integration, splitting patterns, and chemical shift of three peaks from BDC-Triazole and BDC-Tetrazole were considered to retain the structure of BDC-Triazole and BDC-Tetrazole under digestion conditions. The exchange ratios for triazole and tetrazole were determined to be 33% and 30%, respectively, from PSE analysis (Figure 3).

Finally, the porosity of the obtained MOFs were analyzed by N₂ adsorption experiments at 77 K. Both UiO-66-Triazole and UiO-66-Tetrazole displayed reduced N₂ adsorption amounts than pristine UiO-66 (Supplementary Figure 5). The Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area of UiO-66-Triazole was calculated as 809 m²/g, and of UiO-66-Tetrazole as 1,045 m²/g. The measured BET surface area for pristine UiO-66 was 1,604 m²/g.

Discussion

The PSE process with functionalized BDC ligands toward Zr-based UiO-66 MOFs is a simple and versatile method to obtain MOFs with chemical tags. The PSE process is best conducted in aqueous media, requiring the initial step of solvating the ligand in an aqueous medium. When using pre-synthesized BDC with functional groups, direct dissolution in a basic solvent, such as a 4% KOH aqueous solution, is recommended. Alternatively, sodium or potassium salt of benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate may be used. Neutralization to pH 7 is critical for PSE processes utilizing functionalized BDC, as the low stability of MOFs under basic conditions could result in reduced efficacy. HCl is recommended for neutralization, and other acids may be employed if necessary. In cases of excess acid-loading leading to acidic conditions (below pH 7), the functionalized BDC ligand may precipitate out of the solution. Hence, neutralization should be carried out until pH 7 is achieved before subjecting the system to acidic conditions.

Several factors, including the exchange temperature, time, size of the ligand, and ligand ratio, significantly influence the PSE ratio²⁰. The PSE process can be repeated multiple times to increase the exchange ratio. After incubation, the functionalized MOFs can be washed with appropriate solvents multiple times. Distilled water is a suitable option for removing any remaining dicarboxylate ligands, while MeOH can be utilized as an alternative to removing trapped solvents and dicarboxylate residue. Although H₂BDC and BDC are barely soluble in MeOH, functionalized H₂BDCs and BDCs are generally soluble in MeOH.

The utilization of aqueous conditions represents a significant limitation in the current PSE process for target functionalization. To enable practical PSE in aqueous conditions, it becomes imperative to employ water-stable MOFs, such as Zr-based MOFs or ZIFs. While PSE can be carried out in dimethylformamide solutions, the presence of protic solvents and/or aqueous conditions noticeably enhance both the exchange ratio and the rate at which the target ligand replaces the parent MOFs.

¹H NMR measurements are required after digestion to determine the exchange ratio. The high stability of UiO-66 MOFs to acidic conditions makes fluoride-based digestion methods utilizing the high affinity between zirconium and fluoride suitable for this purpose. The HF digestion method is commonly used for the digestion of UiO-66 MOFs. In many cases, UiO-66 MOFs can be fully digested under a mixture of DMSO-d₆ and 48% aqueous HF solution with sonication for 10 min¹⁶. However, the use of HF presents several safety issues and restrictions on its usage. Therefore, an alternative digestion procedure utilizing the NH₄F method was employed in this work. The target UiO-66 MOF (~30 mg) was sonicated for 30 min under NH₄F/D₂O/DMSO (600 µL) conditions.

The PSE process is a highly efficient and straightforward method for introducing functionalized ligands into MOFs. The aqueous conditions and room temperature modification make this methodology applicable to a wide range of MOF-based materials. As the PSE process occurs directionally from the surface of the MOFs to the core of the frameworks, additional features such as surface modification and surface deactivation can be achieved²¹^,²². The unique PSE functionalizations in porous materials, such as MOFs, offer the potential for various functionalizations and target applications. Specifically, the hydrogen-bonding properties of these triazole- and tetrazole-functionalized MOFs, along with their acidic N-H protons, could be utilized in proton conduction³³. In addition, the catalytic applications could also be considered with heterocycle-functionalized MOFs with their coordination abilities. As a result, PSE functionalization is expected to provide a platform for developing functionalized MOFs with unique properties and diverse applications.
