Abstract

Abstract : An amino‐functionalized and Ba12 (COO)18 (NO3 )2 ‐based microporous metal−organic framework (UPC‐33) has been synthesized. UPC‐33 displays not only permanent porosity, but also high adsorption heat of CO2 and selectivity of CO2 /CH4. In addition, UPC‐33 exerts a high separation selectivity for C3 light hydrocarbons relative to CH4, and can selectively adsorb C3 H6 from C2 hydrocarbons. Based on the above work, the cover depicts a traditional Chinese‐style gossip image of UPC‐33, which acts as a platform for adsorbing C3 while separating C1 .
