The invention discloses a method for constructing a hierarchical-pore MOF (
metal organic framework) by ligand selective retention and relates to the technical field of construction of hierarchical-pore
metal organic frameworks. The method includes that an instable 3,6-
dicarboxylic acid-1,2,4,5-dihydrotetrazine ligand and a stable
terephthalic acid ligand are simultaneously introduced into a UiO-66framework; further, by high-temperature
pyrolysis at 250 DEG C for two hours, the stable
terephthalic acid ligand is kept for maintaining stability of the framework while the instable
tetrazine ligand collapses to increase the
pore diameter of the material. Original pores in a certain proportion are retained while the mesopore
diameter of the constructed hierarchical-pore UiO-66 can be increasedto 2-15nm, and high acid-base stability is achieved.
Zirconium nuclear unsaturated
metal sites are increased during
decomposition of the instable ligand, the
large pore diameter is beneficial to a
mass transfer process, and hierarchical-pore UiO-66 has an excellent
catalytic effect on oxidative desulfurization of
benzothiophene owing to the two advantages.
