The separation of ethane (C2H6) from ethylene (C2H4) is one of the most challenging and important tasks in chemical industry. Herein we report two interpenetrated diamondoid (dia) coordination networks,Dia-4-M[M(pba)2] (pba = 4-(4-pyridyl)benzoate); M = Ni or Co), that can directly capture ethane from ethane-ethylene mixtures with reverse C2H6/C2H4separation. Both materials not only exhibit ultra-high C2H6uptake (100 cm3g−1forDia-4-Ni; 103 cm3g−1forDia-4-Co) but also display good C2H6/C2H4selectivity (1.76 forDia-4-Ni; 2.04 forDia-4-Co). Such C2H6/C2H4separation performance was confirmed by dynamic breakthrough experiments.Dia-4-Mcould extract low concentrated of C2H6from C2H6/C2H4mixture (v(C2H6)/v(C2H4) = 1:9 and 1:15) and produce high purity (99.9%) of C2H4under ambient conditions. The mechanism for selective C2H6/C2H4separation was clarified through Grand Canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations and Density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Overall, this research demonstrates thatDia-4-Mhas a significant potential as effective C2H6-selective adsorbents for the purification of ethylene in practice.
