Abstract
A significant improvement in molecular hydrogen uptake properties is revealed by our ab initio calculations for Li-decorated metal–organic framework 5. We have found that two Li atoms are strongly adsorbed on the surfaces of the six-carbon rings, one on each side, carrying a charge of +0.9e per Li atom. Each Li can cluster three H 2 molecules around itself with a binding energy of 12 kJ (mol H 2 ) −1 . Furthermore, we show from ab initio molecular dynamics simulations with a hydrogen loading of 18 H 2 per formula unit that a hydrogen uptake of 2.9 wt % at 200 K and 2.0 wt % at 300 K is achievable. To our knowledge, this is the highest hydrogen storage capacity reported for metal–organic framework 5 under such thermodynamic conditions.
