Modeling Adsorption and Optical Properties for the Design of CO<sub>2</sub> Photocatalytic Metal-Organic Frameworks
Four Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) were modeled (IRMOF-C-BF<sub>2</sub>, IRMOF-C-(2)-BF<sub>2</sub>, IRMOF-C’-BF<sub>2</sub>, and IRMOF-C-CH<sub>2</sub>BF<sub>2</sub>) based on IRMOF-1. A series of linkers, based on Frustrated Lewis Pairs...
