Abstract:This study discusses the hydrogen storage and delivery capacity of Sc‐decorated [6]cycloparaphenylene ([6]CPP) using dispersion‐corrected density functional theory calculations (DFT + D3). The scandium atoms are decorated over [6]CPP via Dewar coordination with an average binding energy of 1.33 eV. Each Sc atom stores up to 5H2 molecules in quasi‐molecular form at an average adsorption energy ranging from 0.23 to 0.36 eV/H2. The system's stability before and after H2 adsorption is checked using reactivity para… Show more
