title: Selective CO2 adsorption in a robust and water-stable porous coordination polymer with new network topology.
abstract: A robust and water-stable porous coordination polymer [Cd(NDC)(0.5)(PCA)]·G(x) (1) (H(2)NDC = 2,6-napthalenedicarboxylic acid, HPCA = 4-pyridinecarboxylic acid, G = guest molecules) with new network topology has been synthesized solvothermally. The framework is 3D porous material and forms a 1D channel along the c-axis, with the channel dimensions ~9.48 × 7.83 Å(2). The compound has high selectivity in uptake of CO(2) over other gases (H(2), O(2), Ar, N(2), and CH(4)). The framework is highly stable in presence of water vapor even at 60 °C. The high CO(2) selectivity over other gases and water stability makes the compound promising candidate for industrial postcombustion gas separation application.
