Adenine-mediated amide-containing metal-organic framework toward one-step ethylene purification from a ternary mixture

An amide-containing adenine-mediated rod metal-organic framework was solvothermally constructed by means of mixed-linker approach, which exhibits both C 2 H 2 and C 2 H 6 selective adsorption, resulting in one-step ethylene purification from a ternary mixture of C 2 H 2 /C 2 H 4 /C 2 H 6 as proved by not only IAST prediction, but also column breakthrough experiments.
