Abstract
The adsorption mode of CO(2) at low coverage in the nanoporous metal benzenedicarboxylate MIL-53(Cr) or Cr(3+)(OH)(O(2)C-C(6)H(4)-CO(2)) has been identified using IR spectroscopy; the red shift of the nu(3) band and the splitting of the nu(2) mode of CO(2) in addition to the shifts of the nu(OH) and delta(OH) bands of the MIL-53(Cr) hydroxyl groups provide evidence that CO(2) interacts with the oxygen atoms of framework OH groups as an electron-acceptor via its carbon atom; this is the first example of such an interaction between CO(2) and bridged OH groups in a solid.
