Abstract

A porous metal-organic framework (MOF), [Ni₂(dobdc)(H ₂O)₂] 6H₂O (Ni₂(dobdc) or Ni-MOF-74; dobdc^4-=2,5-dioxido-1,4-benzenedicarboxylate) with hexagonal channels was synthesized using a microwave-assisted solvothermal reaction. Soaking Ni₂(dobdc) in sulfuric acid solutions at different pH values afforded new proton-conducting frameworks, H⁺@Ni₂(dobdc). At pH1.8, the acidified MOF shows proton conductivity of 2.2×10 ^-2Scm^-1 at 80°C and 95% relative humidity (RH), approaching the highest values reported for MOFs. Proton conduction occurs via the Grotthuss mechanism with a significantly low activation energy as compared to other proton-conducting MOFs. Protonated water clusters within the pores of H⁺@Ni₂(dobdc) play an important role in the conduction process.
