Direct Observation of Confined I⋅⋅⋅I2⋅⋅⋅I Interactions in a Metal–Organic Framework: Iodine Capture and Sensing

Abstract: Herein a strategy is reported for capturing and sensing iodine by strong I ⋅⋅⋅I ⋅⋅⋅I interaction, confined in a metal-organic framework, [Tb(Cu I )(ina) (DMF)] (1) (ina=isonicotinate). As revealed by single-crystal X-ray crystallography, the uptaken I molecules directly contact the {Cu I } chains, virtually forming an electronically polarizable tetraiodide anion (I ) through strong I ⋅⋅⋅I ⋅⋅⋅I interaction. As such, a quasi-copper-iodide layer of {Cu I } with semiconducting characteristics results, leading to a… Show more

“…The environmental relevance of toxic gas capture and the electric conductivity enhancement caused by iodine uptake, have raised great interest on the incorporation of dihalogen molecules in diverse hosts like clathrasils,, zeosils,, and ALPOs, but also organic salts, organic zeolites, Hofmann clathrates,, and other MOFs …”

“…Similar phenomenon was observed for other I 2 @MOFs; for example, Hu et al. reported the MOF [Tb(Cu 4 I 4 )(ina) 3 (DMF)] in which the I 2 @[Tb(Cu 4 I 4 )(ina) 3 (DMF)] displayed a broad absorption over the visible window and its band gap was 1.5 eV lower than the one of the bare MOF . It is worth noting that the interaction of I 2 with aromatic compounds has been studied since the 1940s, and the hypothesis was that I 2 has an abnormally high dielectric polarization in these liquids and forms complexes of solvent–I + I − .…”

“…As can be observed in Figure , SION‐8⊃I 2 displays electrical conductivity ( σ ) that increases with increasing temperature and reaches σ =5.3×10 −6 S cm −1 at 23 °C. This value is comparable to those reported for other I 2 @MOFs, although the latter were obtained from a variety of different methods . An increase of electrical conductivity to a similar extent was also reported for other MOF charge‐transfer complexes, namely by utilizing fullerenes and TCNQ as electron acceptors .…”

“…Similar I 4 2ions were observed by Liao, Zheng and co-workers in a MOF containing Cu 4 I 4 nodes and isonicotinate ions, though no evidence of I 3ions was reported in this case. 30 While the interactions between [(ZnI 2 ) 3 (tpt) 2 ] and 1 with iodine are the only examples to date of absorption of iodine with concurrent conversion to I 3 -, previous papers have reported the direct uptake of triiodide from solution into a framework, [31][32] solvent triggered formation of triiodide from iodine within a framework, 33 and non-innocent redox processes triggered by iodine in a Fe 2+ framework. 34 A key advantage of the interaction described in this work is that the solution phase is by-passed in favor of harnessing reactivity at the gas/solid interface, which is desirable for materials and applications that target radioactive iodine vapor absorption.…”
