A data-science approach to predict the heat capacity of nanoporous materials

Mehrdad Asgari, Özge Kadioglu, Seyedmohamad Moosavi, Elias Moubarak, Balázs Álmos Novotny, Daniele Ongari, Andres Adolfo Ortega Guerrero, Berend Smit

The heat capacity of a material is a fundamental property of great practical importance. For example, in a carbon capture process, the heat required to regenerate a solid sorbent is directly related to the heat capacity of the material. However, for most materials suitable for carbon capture applications, the heat capacity is not known, and thus the standard procedure is to assume the same value for all materials. In this work, we developed a machine learning approach, trained on density functional theory simulations, to accurately predict the heat capacity of these materials, that is, zeolites, metal-organic frameworks and covalent-organic frameworks. The accuracy of our prediction is confirmed with experimental data. Finally, for a temperature swing adsorption process that captures carbon from the flue gas of a coal-fired power plant, we show that for some materials, the heat requirement is reduced by as much as a factor of two using the correct heat capacity.

A new solid-state method was used to introduce a furan-thiourea polymer into the pores of a MOF, Cr-BDC. Next, the activity of the new MOF-polymer composite containing Pd was assessed in the catalytic hydrodeoxygenation of vanillin, a biomass derived chemical.

Acid-base-induced fac → mer isomerization of luminescent iridium(iii) complexes

Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Anastasia Gitlina, Carolina Luciana Plaice, Albert Ruggi, Kay Severin

Luminescent Ir(C^N)3 complexes (C^N = cyclometalated arylpyridine ligand) exist in the form of two stable isomers with distinct photophysical and electrochemical properties: fac and mer. Herein, we show that fac-Ir(C^N)3 complexes can be converted into the thermodynamically less stable mer forms by a consecutive reaction with first acid and then base. The chemically induced isomerization is fast, quantitative, and stereoselective, and it can be inversed by light. The new isomerization process opens the possibility to use highly luminescent Ir(C^N)3 complexes as molecular switches.
