Two Cu(II)-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) having paddle-wheel secondary building units (SBUs), namely, 1Me and 1ipr, were synthesized solvothermally using two new bent di-isophthalate ligands incorporating different substituents. The MOFs showed high porosity (BET surface area, 2191 m2/g for 1Me and 1402 m2/g for 1ipr). For 1Me, very high CO2 adsorption (98.5 wt % at 195 K, 42.9 wt % at 273 K, 23.3 wt % at 298 K) at 1 bar was found, while for 1ipr, it was significantly less (14.3 wt % at 298 K and 1 bar, 54.4 wt % at 298 K at 50 bar). 1Me exhibited H2 uptake of 3.2 wt % at 77 K and 1 bar of pressure, which compares well with other benchmark MOFs. For 1ipr, the H2 uptake was found to be 2.54 wt % under similar experimental conditions. The significant adsorption of H2 and CO2 for 1Me could be due to the presence of micropores as well as unsaturated metal sites in these MOFs besides the presence of substituents that interact with the gas molecules. The experimental adsorption behavior of the MOFs could be justified by theoretical calculations. Additionally, catalytic conversions of CO2 and CS2 into useful chemicals like cyclic carbonates, cyclic trithiocarbonates, and cyclic dithiocarbonates could be achieved.
