Solvent- and Pressure-Induced Phase Changes in Two 3D Copper Glutarate-Based Metal-Organic Frameworks via Glutarate (+gauche ⇄ -gauche) Conformational Isomerism.

Two isoreticular three-dimensional copper(II) glutarate-based pillared-layered metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with flexible pillars, [Cu2(glu)2(bpa)] and [Cu2(glu)2(bpp)] (bpa = 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane; bpp = 1,3-bis(4-pyridyl)propane), undergo spontaneous phase changes upon solvent loss at room temperature. Using single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis (SCXRD), we show that the phase changes result in new narrow-channel forms that experience a large reduction in solvent-accessible volume. Moreover, the [Cu2(glu)2(bpa)] MOF displays a stepped sorption isotherm for the uptake of CO2 at room temperature. This is indicative of reversion of the framework to the wide-channel form under CO2 pressure. Supercritical CO2 was used to isolate the gas-included structures, and by means of SCXRD we were able to determine the positions of the CO2 molecules in the channels of the frameworks. Finally, we report the use of molecular modeling simulations to elucidate the phase-change mechanism, including the energetic changes involved. Structural limitations in both MOFs allow for only direct gauche-gauche enantiomeric interconversion of the glutarate moieties.
