Description

WO 2012/077030 PCT/IB2011/055446 1 PROCESS FOR COATING SUPPORT SURFACE WITH POROUS METAL-ORGANIC FRAMEWORK Description 5 The present invention relates to a process for coating at least part of a surface of a support with a porous metal-organic framework ("MOF"). Processes for coating with metal-organic frameworks have been described in the prior art. 10 W02009/056184 Al describes, for example, spraying a suspension comprising a metal-organic framework onto materials such as nonwovens. DE 10 2006 031 311 Al proposes applying adsorptive materials such as metal-organic 15 frameworks to support materials by adhesive bonding or another method of fixing. The formation of a layer of MOF by means of bonding to gold surfaces by means of self-assembly monolayers is described by S. Hermes et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 127 (2005), 13744-13745 (see also S. Hermes et al. Chem. Mater. 19 (2007), 2168-2173; 20 D. Zacher et al., J. Mater. Chem. 17 (2007), 2785-2792; 0. Shekhah et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 129 (2007), 15118-15119; A. Schroedel et al., Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 49 (2010), 7225-7228). MOF layers on silicone supports are described by G. Lu, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 132 25 (2010), 7832-7833. MOF layers on polyacrylonitrile supports are described by A. Centrone et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 132 (2010), 15687-15691. 30 Copper-benzenetricarboxylate MOF on copper membranes is described by H. Guo et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 131 (2009), 1646-1647. The production of an MOF layer on an aluminum support by dipping and crystal growing is described by Y.-S. Li et al., Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 49 (2010), 548-551. 35 Similar subject matter is described by J. Gascon et al., Microporous and Mesoporous Materials 113 (2008), 132-138 and A. Demessence et al., Chem. Commun. 2009, 7149-7151 and P. Kusgen et al., Advanced Engineering Materials 11 (2009), 93-95.

WO 2012/077030 PCT/IB2011/055446 2 The electrodeposition of an MOF film is described by A. Domenech et al., Electrochemistry Communications 8 (2006), 1830-1834. MOF layers have likewise been used for coating capillaries (N. Chang et al., J. Am. 5 Chem. Soc. 132 (2010), 13645-13647). Despite the processes for coating a support surface with a porous metal-organic framework which are known from the prior art, there is a need for improved processes. 10 It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved process. The object is achieved by a process for coating at least part of a surface of a support with a porous metal-organic framework comprising at least one at least bidentate organic compound coordinated to at least one metal ion, which comprises the steps 15 (a) spraying of the at least one part of the support surface with a first solution comprising the at least one metal ion; (b) spraying of the at least one part of the support surface with a second solution comprising the at least one at least bidentate organic compound, 20 where step (b) is carried out before, after or simultaneously with step (a), to form a layer of the porous metal-organic framework. It has been found that spraying-on of the first and second solution results in 25 spontaneous formation of the metal-organic framework in the form of a layer on the support surface. Here, it is particularly advantageous that homogenous layers can be obtained. Spraying enables a faster production process than dipping processes to be carried out. The adhesion can be increased, so that bonding agents may be able to be dispensed with. 30 Step (a) can be carried out before step (b). Step (a) can also be carried out after step (b). It is likewise possible for step (a) and step (b) to be carried out simultaneously. The resulting layer of the porous metal-organic framework can preferably be dried. If 35 step (a) and (b) are not carried out simultaneously, a drying step can additionally be carried out between the two steps. The drying of the resulting layer of the porous metal-organic framework can, in particular, be effected by heating and/or by means of reduced pressure. Heating is WO 2012/077030 PCT/IB2011/055446 3 carried out, for example, at a temperature in the range from 1200C to 3000C. The layer is preferably dried at at least 1500C. Spraying can be carried out by means of known spraying techniques. Spraying with the 5 first, second or both with the first and the second solution is preferably carried out in a spraying drum. The solutions can be at different temperatures or the same temperature. This can be above or below room temperature. The same applies to the support surface. The first 10 solution or the second solution or both the first and the second solution is/are preferably at room temperature (220C). The first and second solutions can comprise identical or different solvents. Preference is given to using the same solvent. Possible solvents are solvents known in the prior 15 art. The first solution or the second solution or both the first and second solutions is/are preferably an aqueous solution. The support surface can be a metallic or nonmetallic, optionally modified surface. Preference is given to a fibrous or foam surface. 20 Particular preference is given to a sheet-like textile structure comprising or consisting of natural fibers and/or synthetic fibers (chemical fibers), in particular with the natural fibers being selected from the group consisting of wool fibers, cotton fibers (CO) and in particular cellulose and/or, in particular, with the synthetic fibers being selected from 25 the group consisting of polyesters (PES); polyolefins, in particular polyethylene (PE) and/or polypropylene (PP); polyvinyl chlorides (CLF); polyvinylidene chlorides (CLF); acetates (CA); triacetates (CTA); polyacrylic (PAN); polyamides (PA), in particular aromatic, preferably flame-resistant polyamides; polyvinyl alcohols (PVAL); polyurethanes; polyvinyl esters; (meth)acrylates; polylactic acids (PLA); activated 30 carbon; and mixtures thereof. Particular preference is given to foams for sealing and insulation, acoustic foams, rigid foams for packaging and flame-resistant foams composed of polyurethane, polystyrene, polyethylene, polypropylene, PVC, viscose, cellular rubber and mixtures 35 thereof. Very particular preference is given to foam composed of melamine resin (Basotect). A particularly suitable support material is filter material (including dressing material, cotton cloths, cigarette filters, filter papers as can, for example, be procured 40 commercially for laboratory use).

WO 2012/077030 PCT/IB2011/055446 4 The first solution comprises the at least one metal ion. This can be used as metal salt. The second solution comprises the at least one at least bidentate organic compound. This can preferably be in the form of a solution of its salt. 5 The at least one metal ion and the at least one at least bidentate organic compound form the porous metal-organic framework by contacting of the two solutions directly on the support surface to form a layer. Metal-organic frameworks which can be produced in this way are known in the prior art. 10 Such metal-organic frameworks (MOF) are, for example, described in US 5,648,508, EP-A-0 790 253, M. O'Keeffe et al., J. Sol. State Chem., 152 (2000), pages 3 to 20, H. Li et al., Nature 402, (1999), page 276, M. Eddaoudi et al., Topics in Catalysis 9, (1999), pages 105 to 111, B. Chen et al., Science 291, (2001), pages 1021 to 1023, 15 DE-A-101 11 230, DE-A 10 2005 053430, WO-A 2007/054581, WO-A 2005/049892 and WO-A 2007/023134. As a specific group of these metal-organic frameworks, "limited" frameworks in which, as a result of specific selection of the organic compound, the framework does not 20 extend infinitely but forms polyhedra are described in the recent literature. A.C. Sudik, et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 127 (2005), 7110-7118, describe such specific frameworks. Here, they will be described as metal-organic polyhedra (MOP) to distinguish them. A further specific group of porous metal-organic frameworks comprises those in which 25 the organic compound as ligand is a monocyclic, bicyclic or polycyclic ring system which is derived at least from one of the heterocycles selected from the group consisting of pyrrole, alpha-pyridone and gamma-pyridone and has at least two ring nitrogens. The electrochemical preparation of such frameworks is described in WO-A 2007/131955. 30 The general suitability of metal-organic frameworks for absorbing gases and liquids is described, for example, in WO-A 2005/003622 and EP-A 1 702 925 These specific groups are particularly suitable for the purposes of the present 35 invention. The metal-organic frameworks according to the present invention comprise pores, in particular micropores and/or mesopores. Micropores are defined as pores having a diameter of 2 nm or less and mesopores are defined by a diameter in the range from 2 40 to 50 nm, in each case corresponding to the definition given in Pure & Applied Chem.

Very particular preference is given to using, inter alia, 2-methylimidazole, 2-ethylimidazole, phthalic acid, isophthalic acid, terephthalic acid, 15 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, 1,4-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, 1,5-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid, 1,2,3-benzenetricarboxylic acid, 1,2,4-benzenetricarboxylic acid, 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid, 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid, aminoBDC, TEDA, fumaric acid, biphenyldicarboxylate, 1,5- and 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid, tert-butylisophthalic acid, dihydroxybenzoic acid, BTB, HPDC, BPTC, BPP. 20 Apart from these at least bidentate organic compounds, the metal-organic framework can also comprise one or more monodentate ligands and/or one or more at least bidentate ligands which are not derived from a dicarboxylic, tricarboxlic or tetracarboxylic acid. 25 Apart from these at least bidentate organic compounds, the metal-organic framework can also comprise one or more monodentate iigands. Preferred at least bidentate organic compounds are formic acid, acetic acid or an 30 aliphatic dicarboxylic or polycarboxylic acid, for example malonic acid, fumaric acid or the like, in particular fumaric acid, or are derived from these. For the purposes of the present invention, the term "derived" means that the at least one at least bidentate organic compound is present in partially or fully deprotonated 35 form. Furthermore, the term "derived" means that the at least one at least bidentate organic compound can have further substituents. Thus, a dicarboxylic or polycarboxylic acid can have not only the carboxylic acid function but also one or more independent substituents such as amino, hydroxyl, methoxy, halogen or methyl groups. Preference is given to no further substituent being present. For the purposes of the present 40 invention, the term "derived" also means that the carboxylic acid function can be WO 2012/077030 PCT/IB2011/055446 12 present as a sulfur analogue. Sulfur analogues are -C(=O)SH and its tautomer and -C(S)SH. Suitable solvents for preparing the metal-organic framework are, inter alia, ethanol, 5 dimethylformamide, toluene, methanol, chlorobenzene, diethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, water, hydrogen peroxide, methylamine, sodium hydroxide solution, N-methylpyrrolidone ether, acetonitrile, benzyl chloride, triethylamine, ethylene glycol and mixtures thereof. Further metal ions, at least bidentate organic compounds and solvents for the preparation of MOFs are described, inter alia, in US-A 5,648,508 or 10 DE-A 101 11 230. The pore size of the metal-organic framework can be controlled by selection of the appropriate ligand and/or the at least bidentate organic compound. In general, the larger the organic compound, the larger the pore size. The pore size is preferably from 15 0.2 nm to 30 nm, particularly preferably in the range from 0.3 nm to 3 nm, based on the crystalline material. Examples of metal-organic frameworks are given below. In addition to the designation of the framework, the metal and the at least bidentate ligand, the solvent and the cell 20 parameters (angles a, p and y and the dimensions A, B and C in A) are also indicated. The latter were determined by X-ray diffraction. MOF-n Constituents Solvent a p a b c Space molar ratio s group M+L MOF-0 Zn(NO3) 2 -6H 2 0 ethanol 90 90 120 16.711 16.711 14.189 P6(3)/

Greater preference is given to Sc terephthalate, Al-BDC and AI-BTC. In particular, however, preference is given to Mg 10 formate, Mg-acetate and mixtures thereof because of their environmental friendliness. Aluminum-fumarate is particularly preferred. The layer of the porous metal-organic framework preferably has a mass in the range from 0.1 g/m 2 to 100 g/m 2 , more preferably from 1 g/m 2 to 80 g/m 2 , even more 15 preferably from 3 g/m 2 to 50 g/m 2 . Examples The following examples indicate various methods of coating filter paper with aluminum 20 fumarate MOF by means of direct synthesis. For all examples, two solutions were produced as described below: Solution 1: Deionized water (72.7 g) was placed in a vessel and A1 2 (SO4) 3 x18H 2 0 (16.9 g, 25.5 mmol) was dissolved therein with stirring. 25 Solution 2: Deionized water (87.3 g) was placed in a vessel and NaOH (6.1 g, 152.7 mmol) was dissolved therein with stirring. Fumaric acid (5.9 g, 50.9 mmol) was subsequently added while stirring and the mixture was stirred until a clear solution was formed. 30 For example 1, filters from Macherey-Nagel (d = 150 mm) were used. Filter papers from Schleicher & Schuell (d = 90-110 mm) were used for example 2. The surface area of the untreated filter papers is -1-2 m 2 /g (specific surface area determined by the Langmuir method (LSA)). The surface areas of the coated papers were determined using a small sample of the filters (- 100 mg). 35 In all examples, room temperature is 22'C.

WO 2012/077030 PCT/IB2011/055446 25 Example 1: Coating of filter papers by spraying-on the solutions in a rotating spraying drum at room temperature Experimental method: 5 The filter paper was fixed in the spraying drum by means of adhesive tape and sprayed with solution 1 by means of a pump having a spray head at room temperature and rotation of the drum. After brief drying or in the moist state, solution 2 was sprayed on at room temperature by means of the pump. The filter paper was subsequently dried at room temperature in a jet of compressed air in the rotating drum. Uniform coating with 10 a few flakes at the edge was obtained. The increase in mass of the filters was 1.2-2.3 g. The dried papers were washed 4 times with 10 ml each time of H 2 0 on a suction filter under a slight water pump vacuum and dried again at room temperature. The filters obtained were activated at 1500C in a vacuum drying oven for 16 hours. XRD analysis of a selected sample displayed, in addition to Ibeta cellulose, a weak peak at 15 10 2-theta which can be assigned to the aluminum-fumarate MOF. The corresponding surface area was 51 m 2 /g LSA. Example 2: Coating of filter paper by simultaneous spraying-on of the solutions 1 and 2 20 Experimental method: The filter paper was suspended and simultaneously sprayed with up to 1 ml of the two solutions (Eco-Spray sprayer and Desaga SG-1 sprayer). The treated filter paper was dried in air at room temperature while suspended. Homogeneous layers having a few small flakes were obtained. The increasing mass of the filters was 80-290 mg. The 25 paper was subsequently washed 4 times with 10 ml each time of H 2 0 and dried at 1000C in a convection drying oven for 16 hours. 31-279 mg were then detected on the filter papers. This corresponds to from 4.9 to 42 g/m 2 . XRD analysis of a selected sample displayed, in addition to Ibeta cellulose, a strong peak at 10 2-theta (crystallinity -3000) which can be assigned to the aluminum-fumarate MOF. 30 WO 2012/077030 PCT/IB2011/055446 26 Example 3: Coating of further support surfaces 10 x 10 cm pieces of a teatowel (90% cotton, 10% linen) A, a cotton glove B, cellulose cloths (Zewa@) C, bandaging waste (viscose) D and Basotect E (melamine resin foam) 5 were treated in the same way as the filter paper in example 2. The mass taken up after spraying and drying was 770-500 mg. After washing of the samples A to D with water and subsequent drying at room temperature, coatings of 440-580 mg were obtained. This corresponds to from 4.4 to 5.8 g/m 2 . Analysis of all samples displayed, in addition to the signals of the respective material, a peak at 100 (2-theta), which can be assigned 10 to the aluminum-fumarate MOF. The surface areas of the treated materials were 17-22 m 2 /g LSA.
