Abstract:
A porous metal-organic framework, [Co(II)(4)(micro-OH(2))(4)(MTB)(2) x (H(2)O)(4)](n) x 13nDMF x 11nH(2)O (SNU-15), has been prepared; the X-ray crystal structure reveals a CaF(2)-like structure that generates 3D channels and the desolvated solid [Co(II)(4) (micro-OH(2))(4)(MTB)(2)](n) (SNU-15') exhibits selective gas sorption properties for H(2) and O(2) gases over N(2) at 77 K, with exceptionally high O(2) density, as well as for CO(2) over CH(4) at 195 and 273 K, suggesting its potential application in gas separation processes.

Metal-Ligand Bonds
In these complexes, transition metals form coordinate covalent bonds, a kind of Lewis acid-base interaction in which both of the electrons in the bond are contributed by a donor (Lewis base) to an electron acceptor (Lewis acid). The Lewis acid in...

Crystal Field Theory - Octahedral Complexes
To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.
CFT focuses on...
