Abstract

10

We report the first example of linker modification for an N-donor Ag-based cationic material

11

while maintaining and in some cases increasing the anion exchange capacity. Cationic silver(I)

12

pyrazine nitrate selectively traps harmful oxo-anions from water such as permanganate,

13

perrhenate and a variety of α,ω-alkanedicarboxylates. We chose these anions as initial examples

14

of exchange for potential water purification. The host-guest interaction between the cationic

15

layers of -stacked silver pyrazine polymers and the incoming/outgoing interlamellar anions

16

allows for the exchange. The exchange capacity over 24 h reached 435 and 818 mg/g for

17

permanganate and perrhenate, respectively, a record for a crystalline metal-organic material and

18

over five times the exchange capacity compared to commercial resin. The material also

19

undergoes organic exchange as an analog for pharmaceutical waste, some of which have a

carboxylate functionality at the neutral pH range typical of natural water sources. Both the as-

21

synthesized and exchanged materials are characterized by a variety of analytical techniques.

Introduction

24

Open-framework metal-organic polymers, derived from a combination of selected

25

transition metal and bridging ligands, have attracted much attention owing to their various

26

potential applications including electrocatalysis,1 magnetism,2 luminescence,3 gas storage,4 ion

27

exchange5 and heterogeneous catalysis.6,7 Coordination polymers (CPs) based on Ag(I) cations

28

are attracting a great deal of attention, in part because they are structurally versatile.8,9 The

29

coordination sphere of the d10 metal, Ag(I), is very flexible and can adopt coordination numbers

30

two to six and various geometries from linear to trigonal, tetrahedral, trigonal pyramidal and

31

octahedral.10 The structural flexibility of these complexes is essential for the investigation of

32

non-covalent host-guest interactions. Weak intermolecular forces significantly affect the

33

geometry and topology of the Ag(I) coordination polymers in the solid state and in turn the anion

34

exchange.11

35

There has been much recent interest in the study of linear 1-D silver coordination

36

polymers involving bridging N-heterocyclic ligands.12,13 The simplest such ligand is pyrazine,

37

which has two nitrogen donors in its six-ring. Using a 1:1 ratio with silver nitrate, silver(I)

38

pyrazine structures can be synthesized.14,15 The first silver pyrazine structures, [Ag(NC4H4N)+]n

39

and [Ag(NC4H4N)2+]n, were first reported in the 1960s16 and have since been the subject of

40

various studies including measurements of stability constants,16 infrared spectroscopy17 and mass

41

spectroscopy.18 Both structures displayed a high melting point (250 °C), which led the authors to

42

suggest polymeric structures because pyrazine can act as bidentate bridging group. In a 1966

43

report, the silver pyrazine crystals were inherently twinned and the structure consisted of kinked

44

chains of the type [-Ag-NC4H4N-]n.19 Due to the lability of the Ag-donor atom bond,20 the

45

process of coordination polymer formation is highly reversible. As a result, the Ag(I)

46

coordination polymers can readily be crystallized with various counter-anions, allowing

47

investigation by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Anion exchange was not studied; our group is

48

thus interested in developing new anion exchange chemistry using silver pyrazine CPs.

49

Many of the priority pollutants in wastewater listed by the U.S. Environmental Protection

50

Agency (EPA) are in their oxo-anionic form, for example, pertechnetate (TcO4–), chromate

51

(CrO42–) and arsenate (AsO43–).21 These toxic, harmful anions are problematic in the vitrification

52

of low activity radioactive waste, weakening the integrity of the waste glass by forming

53

spinels.2{Citation}2 Another class of water-borne toxic anion pollutants are organic, generated

54

through both industrial processes and personal use. EPA classifies many of these pollutants as

55

pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs).23 Many pharmaceuticals are sold in their

56

acid or chloride form and consequently form anions when dissolved in water. Pharmaceutical

57

anions and their metabolites are a growing problem because of ineffective removal or

58

chlorination to toxic derivatives in wastewater treatment facilities.24

59

Resins with cationic side groups and exchangeable counter anions are still considered the

60

standard ion exchanger.25,26 Due to their organic polymer nature, these resins are of limited

61

thermal and chemical stability.27 One alternative to possibly replace resins is layered double

62

hydroxides (LDHs), an isostructural group of materials containing cationic brucite type layers

63

that are charged balanced by interlayer anions with general formula [M2+1−xM3+x(OH)2][An–

64

x/n]·xH2O

where M2+ and M3+ are a range of metals, An− is the intercalated anion, and x is ratio

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

3

Environmental Science & Technology

65

of M3+/( M2+ + M3+). LDHs generally suffer, however, from low selectivity and re-intercalation

66

of common anions such as carbonate or sulfate due to the memory effect.28,29

Page 4 of 30

67

Owing to the structural diversity and weak host-guest interaction, cationic coordination

68

polymers are gaining considerable attention for anion exchange. Silver-based CPs in particular

69

have been previously studied for their ability to selectively trap anions via a crystal-to-crystal

70

transition.30,31 We reported silver(I) with 4,4-bipyridine polymers and ethanedisulfonate [EDS, –

71

O3S(CH2)2SO3–] as a charge balance anion.32 We also reported oxo-anion pollutants exchange

72

materials such as [Cu4(OH)62+][EDS2–]·2H2O33 and [M(H2O)n(4,4’-bipyridine)22+][EDS2–] [M =

73

Cu(I), Ag(I), Co(II) or Zn(II)].32,34,35 We subsequently described silver-4,4’-bipyridine nitrate

74

(SBN)36,37 and acetate (SBA)38 materials. Both circumvent the need for EDS anions and have

75

even higher capacity, rate, selectivity and reversibility for trapping of perchlorate from water.

76

Wang and coworkers recently reported a variety of cationic extended materials, denoted as SCU-

77

n (Soochow University, structure No. n) with outstanding performance for TcO4–/ReO4–

78

removal.39–42 These authors also recently reported organic polymers with similar properties.42,43

79

There have also been significant advances with selective crystallization approaches for anion

80

removal44 and very recently Zr6O8-based cationic MOFs, though the latter require ligands with

81

multiple step syntheses and have limited selectivity.45,46

82

In this study, a variety of anionic pollutants including permanganate, perrhenate (as an

83

analog for pertechnetate) and α,ω-alkanedicarboxylates (as analogs for anionic pharmaceutical

84

pollutants) were exchanged into the cationic CP Ag-pyrazine nitrate. The weak interaction

85

between the interlamellar nitrates and the cationic silver pyrazine layers likely allows for the

86

high capacity exchange.

100

[C10H6(COOH)2, TCI America] and Purolite A530E (Purolite).

101

Instrumental Details: Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) data were obtained on a Rigaku

102

Americas Miniflex Plus powder diffractometer, scanning from 2° to 40° (2θ) at a rate of 3°min-1

103

with a 0.02° step size under Cu-Kα radiation (λ = 1.5418 Å). Inductively coupled plasma optical

104

emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) data were acquired on a Perkin Elmer Optima 4300DV, run in

105

radial mode using yttrium as an internal standard. A standard curve for silver(I) was prepared to

106

quantify the amount of free silver in the samples. Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR)

107

spectroscopy data was collected on a Perkin Elmer Spectrum One FT-IR spectrometer.

108

Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was performed using a TA Instruments Q500 TGA, heating

109

from 25 to 600 °C with a gradient of 10 °C/min and nitrogen flow. In situ variable temperature

110

PXRD (VT-PXRD) was performed on a Rigaku SmartLab X-Ray Diffractometer with Cu-

111

K radiation ( = 1.57418 Å) from 2° to 70° (2) at a scan rate of 2°/min and 0.02° step size.

112

The samples were heated at a rate of 10°C/min and held at the set temperature for 5 min before

113

scanning. SEM images were collected with a FEI Quanta 3D Dualbeam microscope.

114

Synthesis: Silver nitrate and pyrazine (1:1 molar ratio) were added together in 10 mL of

115

Millipore water and the mixture was kept at 70 °C for 1 h. The reaction mixture was then cooled

116

in an ice bath and rinsed with cold Millipore water and acetone. The filtration gave rise to white

117

needle-like small crystals (yield: 65.8% based on AgNO3). Direct synthesis of silver malonate

118

was performed by mixing silver nitrate and sodium malonate (1:1 molar ratio) together in 10 mL

119

of Millipore water and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h. The product was

120

filtered and rinsed with Millipore water and acetone (yield: 63.4% based on AgNO3).

121

Anion Exchange: The exchange reactions were performed by placing [Ag(pyrazine)+][NO3–]

122

(0.2 mmol) and the anion of interest (0.2 mmol) in 10 mL of Millipore water. The resulting

123

systems were kept under 300-400 rpm magnetic stirring rate at room temperature 25 °C for 24 h.

124

Equimolar quantities were used for all anion exchanges but modified if necessary according to

125

the charge of the incoming anion. The selectivity tests were performed by introducing the

126

material into a sealed beaker containing 10 mL Millipore water and the anion mixture of interest

127

(0.2 mmol for each). The reaction was stirred for 24 h under ambient conditions.

128

Silver leaching: To study the leaching of silver ion of exchanged product [Ag(pyrazine)+][ReO4–

129

], the sample was placed in water under dark, static conditions for 24 h and the solution was

130

analyzed by ICP-OES.

131

Results and Discussion

132 133

The Ag(I) pyrazine nitrate (SPN) structure (Scheme 1) was synthesized using a slight modification of the literature method.19 The crystals formed within 1 h under low heat, as

evidenced by the match of the experimental PXRD pattern to the theoretical pattern simulated

135

from single crystal data (Figure 1). The single crystal data and structure refinement indicate a

Figure 2: SEM image of a representative needle-shaped crystal of SPN. SPN crystallizes as colorless needle crystals (Figure 2). The crystals are in the Pī space

group of the triclinic system. Single crystal XRD revealed that the structure contains one

146

dimensional silver(I) pyrazine chains, -stacked [3.483(2) to 3.975(4) Å] into layers with charge-

147

balancing nitrate anions between the layers (Figure 3). The chains are slightly kinked with Ag-N

148

distance ranging from 2.211(7) to 2.229(7) Å (Table S2). Within the polymeric chain, the N–Ag–

149

N is significantly bent at an angle of 157.4(2)°, likely due to the presence of weakly coordinating

150

oxygen atoms of nearby nitrate anions. The bond length between Ag(I) and the oxygen from

151

nitrate was 2.558(6) Å, creating weak covalent Ag-O bonds47 that play a crucial role in the anion

152

exchangeability (vide infra).

157

The thermal behavior of SPN was investigated by in-situ variable temperature powder X-

158

ray diffraction (VT-PXRD) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), both under nitrogen flow

159

(Figure 4). At 145 °C, an additional unknown crystalline phase appeared [first peak at ~ 12°

160

(2)]. Both the original phase and this new phase are gone by 225 °C, replaced by peaks at ~ 19°,

161

21°, 24° and 29° (2, peaks indicated with asterisks in Figure 4) and correspond to silver nitrate

162

(ICDD PDF #00-043-0649). The TGA trace showed only a single weight loss at ~ 175 °C and is

163

likely due to the partial loss of pyrazine (calculated: 20.8%, observed: 18.1%). At 400 °C, the

164

VT-PXRD shows a mixed phase of silver nitrate, silver oxide (ICDD PDF #03-065-3289, peaks

165

indicated by number signs) and silver metal (ICDD PDF #01-071-5025, peaks indicated by solid

166

171

All of the anion exchange studies of [Ag(pyrazine) +][NO3–] were performed in aqueous

172

conditions and pH 7. The first exchange investigated was organic, using various -

173

alkanedicarboxylate anions. An equimolar ratio of malonate, succinate, glutarate, adipate or

174

sebacate to the CP material was tested in aqueous solution (Figure 5). The principal peak of the

175

as-synthesized nitrate-containing material is at 12.5° (2θ) (Figure 5a), corresponding to a basal

176

spacing of 7.1 Å (Table 1). Based on the relative carbon chain length and size of carbonate end

177

groups [−O2C(CH2)nCO2−], it was expected that succinate (n = 2), glutarate (n = 3), adipate (n =

178

4) and sebacate (n = 8) would shift the principal (200) peak to lower 2θ values as the interlayer

179

distance increases.

[Ag(pyrazine)+][−O2C(CH2)nCO2−] (n = 1 to 8).

200

As the number of carbons of the dicarboxylate anion increased, the 2θ value of the 100% peak

201

decreased according to Bragg’s law (Figure 7). Attempts to reverse the exchange have been

202

unsuccessful to date, implying the organic-intercalated materials are of higher stability. The

203

[Ag(pyrazine)+][−O2C(CH2)nCO2−] materials are thermally stable up to 300 °C (Figure S1),

204

which further supports the irreversibility. The appearance of carboxylate peaks in the FTIR

205

spectra also confirms that organic uptake has taken place (Figure 8). The C=O and C-O stretches

206

of carboxylate bands were found at 1570 and 1300 cm−1, respectively.

210

The selectivity amongst the -alkanedicarboxylates was also tested to see if there is a

211

preference between them. The exchange started out with a mixture of even (C2, C4 and C8) or

212

odd (C1, C3 and C8) carbon chain length dicarboxylates (Figure 9). In all tests, sebacate

213

[−O2C(CH2)8CO2−] was the only phase observed, likely due to its greater amphiphilicity and thus

214

stability of the n = 8 phase via van der Waals close-packing.

219

In addition to α,ω-alkanedicarboxylates, the material displays high capacity inorganic

220

anion exchange for water-borne metal oxo-anion pollutants. Permanganate, perrhenate and

221

tetrafluoroborate were studied as initial examples. The latter was chosen as a comparitive

222

tetrahedral anion whereas permanganate and perrhenate were selected as group 7 surrogates for

223

pertechnetate, which is a problematic radioactive pollutant during the vitrification of nuclear

224

waste.48 An equimolar amount of permanganate and as-synthesized SPN were introduced into

225

aqueous solution under mild stirring. As monitored by UV-Vis spectroscopy, the permanganate

226

concentration rapidly decreased by 32% to 57% with reaction intervals of 0.5 h to 3 h,

227

respectively (Figure 10). The uptake of permanganate was confirmed by PXRD (Figure S2) and

228

was 92% after 24 h with an adsorption capacity of 435 mg/g (0.91 mol/mol). This uptake

performance is better than SLUG-21 (292 mg/g)32 and Ag[4,4’-bis(1,2,4-

Similarly, perrhenate exchanged successfully according to PXRD, with the powder

pattern corresponding to the directly synthesized [Ag(pyrazine)+][ReO4–] (Figure 11). ICP-OES

was used to quantitatively monitor the Re uptake, reaching over 82% removal from solution in

244

To understand the change in morphology of SPN during anion exchange with perrhenate,

245

in-situ optical microscopy was performed to monitor the transformation between the two

246

crystalline phases (Figure 13). As-synthesized SPN crystals were immersed in an aqueous

247

solution of sodium perrhenate under ambient conditions, yielding the highly crystalline phase

248

[Ag(pyrazine)+][ReO4–]. The formation of [Ag(pyrazine)+][ReO4–] was observed on the surface

249

of the SPN crystals after 40 min. The competitive crystallization allows [Ag(pyrazine)+][ReO4–]

250

to gradually grow in expense of the original SPN crystal to form the distinct new phase and

251

crystal morphology after 60 min. Unlike solid-state equilibrium-driven anion exchange process

252

for LDHs, this crystal-to-crystal transition process indicates that our material undergoes a

253

solvent-mediated recrystallization mechanism typical of this type of material, including SBN.36,37

The adsorption capacity of SPN is 818 mg ReO4−/g of material, higher than that of SBN (786

262

mg/g),43 NDTB (720 mg/g),50 , SCU-COF-1 (702.4 mg/g),55 SLUG-21 (602 mg/g),32 SCU-8

(540 mg/g),39 SCU-100 (541 mg/g)40, SCU-102 (291 mg/g),56 SCU-101 (217 mg/g)42, UiO-66-

264

NH3+ (159 mg/g)51. The rate of uptake is slower than that of SBN, SCU-8, SCU-100, SCU-101

265

and SCU-COF-1 nor did it reach as high capacity as the recently reported organic polymer, SCU-

266

CPN-1 (999 mg/g).41 Our material is extremely easy to synthesize using water, commerically

267

available reagents and ambient conditions. The higher specific uptake of SPN versus the other

268

CP/MOF type materials is likely due to the shorter and thus lighter organic linker, coupled with a

269

higher cationic charge density and thus anion density. PXRD before and after anion exchange

270

confirmed that SPN retains its crystalline layered character after intercalation, with the d-spacing

271

slightly increasing from 7.0 to 7.4 Å due to the larger anion (Figure 14). The exchange for both

272

permanganate and perrhenate were irreversible after all attempts. Reusability is, in fact,

273

undesirable for a highly problematic pollutant such as the radionuclide pertechnetate.

277

Since BF4−, MnO4− and ReO4− are all tetrahedral geometry, we were interested in the

278

selectivity. According to PXRD data, perrhenate outperformed the other anions (Figure 15).

282

Given the high adsorption capacity of [Ag(pyrazine)+][ReO4–], we also performed the

283

competition study with chloride (Cl–) which is commonly present in water (Figure 16). The

284

selectivity of SPN for perrhenate over chloride was demonstrated by performing two lower

285

chloride concentration tests containing 100 ppm and 200 ppm, as evidenced by PXRD (Figure

286

16b,c). In both tests it was observed that the chloride did not interfere with the uptake of

287

perrhenate. When SPN is exposed to an equimolar ratio of ReO4– and Cl–, the resulting mixture

288

gave rise to pure-phase AgCl (Figure 16d).

We attempted to prepare crystals suitable for single crystal X-ray diffraction in order to

294

have a deeper understanding of the specific binding. Among them, only [Ag(pyrazine)+][ReO4–]

295

successfully yielded colorless needle-type crystals, matching the theoretical pattern based on the

296

crystal data reported by Maggard et. al.52 The ReO4− tetrahedra, which reside in the space

297

between the silver pyrazine layers, are separated from each other by 4.61 Å (O1-O1’). Each

298

ReO4− tetrahedron bonds via three O vertices to three different Ag+ in the layer [Ag–O distance

299

2.603(3) to 2.686(5) Å], creating stronger silver to oxygen bonds than BF4– and MnO4– anions

300

(Figure 17). Indeed, Wang et al. reported density functional theory (DFT) analysis for the

301

bonding of a similar silver(I) polymer, [Ag(4,4’-bipyridine)+][ReO4–], where ReO4– has a

302

stronger electrostatic interaction with the polymers that creates a better match of coordinating

303

environment compared to other anions such as BF4– and MnO4– .43

A silver leaching measurement was carried out to verify the stability of the SPN material and to confirm the heterogenous nature of the CP. The material was placed in solution and the

latter was analyzed after 24 h using ICP-OES in order to measure the leached silver. The

311

concentration of the leached silver in the solution was found to be less than 2% for all the

312

samples (Table 3). This may be due to the strong interaction of silver with nitrogen from

313

pyrazine groups which prevents the leaching of silver from the polymer matrix. Table 3: The

321

Attempts to intercalate other aromatic dicarboxylates such as salicylic acid, p-

322

terephthalate, and 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylate were not successful, likely due to the limited

323

aqueous solubility of these analytes at neutral pH. Other reports of the intercalation of

324

terephthalate derivatives into cationic materials occurred in basic aqueous solutions.53,54 PXRD

325

data revealed that the exchange products turned out to be identical to the directly synthesized

326

silver dicarboxylates (Figure 18), confirming that pyrazine in this case had been lost upon the

327

exchange attempt.

328

The ability to modify the N-donor linker for these Ag-based cationic CP materials may

329

allow tuning of the anion propensity for water purification and pollution abatement. The cationic

330

material silver(I) pyrazine shows the highest group 7 oxo-anion uptake (435 and 818 mg/g for

331

permanganate and perrhenate, respectively) to date for a metal-organic extended structure,

332

making it potentially useful to trap pertechnetate. The capacity and kinetics far outperform the

333

anion exchange resin Purolite 530E.57 Unlike some of the recently reported cationic MOFs, all of

334

the synthesis and exchange occur aqueously with commercially available reagents. With the

335

formation of a new crystal structure driving the reaction, the anions become incorporated into a

336

structure. Reuse of the material would, in fact, be undesirable for a highly problematic

337

radionuclide. The material also displays uptake toward organic water-borne pollutants through a

338

series of α,ω-alkanedicarboxylates.
