Abstract
Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) taken from postconsumer commercial water bottles was subjected to acid hydrolysis with HNO₃ to recover terephthalic acid (H₂TPA). The H₂TPA was submitted to mono-nitration with HNO₃/H2SO4 to produce 2-nitro-terephthalic acid (NO₂-H₂TPA) in good yield. Both compounds were well characterized by NMR (1H; 13C; 1H–13C HSQC). These two molecules were used as ligands for the syntheses of two new cobalt-based metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) via solvothermal methodology, in dimethylformamide (DMF) or dimethylacetamide (DMA). The MOFs Co-TPA-DMA (1) and Co-(NO₂-TPA)-DMF (2) were obtained and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive spectroscopy (SEM–EDS).
期刊介绍:
Transition Metal Chemistry is an international journal designed to deal with all aspects of the subject embodied in the title: the preparation of transition metal-based molecular compounds of all kinds (including complexes of the Group 12 elements), their structural, physical, kinetic, catalytic and biological properties, their use in chemical synthesis as well as their application in the widest context, their role in naturally occurring systems etc.
Manuscripts submitted to the journal should be of broad appeal to the readership and for this reason, papers which are confined to more specialised studies such as the measurement of solution phase equilibria or thermal decomposition studies, or papers which include extensive material on f-block elements, or papers dealing with non-molecular materials, will not normally be considered for publication. Work describing new ligands or coordination geometries must provide sufficient evidence for the confident assignment of structural formulae; this will usually take the form of one or more X-ray crystal structures.
