Abstract:
The metal-organic framework CuI-MFU-4l reacts with NO, initially forming a copper(I)-nitrosyl at low pressure, and subsequently generates NO disproportionation products CuII-NO2 and N2O. The thermal stability of MFU-4l allows NO to be released from the framework at temperatures greater than 200 °C. This treatment regenerates the original CuI-MFU-4l, which can engage in subsequent cycles of NO disproportionation.
