CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1     Background of Study

With the rate at which population is increasing and the usage of fossil fuels, the need for alternative and sustainable energy development has become a necessity. There is therefore need for energy saving materials that are affordable and that pose no threat to our environment. Areas of interests such as fuel cells, batteries, capacitors, solar cells, etc. afford much opportunity for improvement and research focus. (Lacey et al., 2014)

Detection of hazardous materials is a significant concern for homeland security, and portable sensors are potentially desirable to avoid the complexity of such materials, such as explosives. Luminescent metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are potentially useful as chemically-selective sensors.The study of luminescence behaviour in metal organic frameworks is an active area of research in inorganic chemistry. A large numberof 3d element have been employed to investigate the ligand luminescence. The most commonly reported metal organic framework structures are based on Zn2+ and Cd2+ ions, which have filled d orbitals and thus d–d transitions are not possible. In these compounds, intra-ligand and/or ligand metal charge transfer effects have been observed. The photoluminescence studies are important to understand the charge-transfer pathways. The studies on the luminescence behavior in MOFs clearly indicate that the energy transfer from the organic ligands to the metal center is easy. The life-time studies also suggest that the excited state possess considerable stability and allows for exploitation in many important applications. (Zhou, X et al., 2009; Konar et al., 2013)

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), also known as metal-organic networks, or coordination polymers, represent a new class of compounds containing metal ions linked by organic bridging ligands. A metal-organic framework (MOF) material can be thought of as the composition of two major components: a metal ion (or cluster of metal ions) and an organic molecule called a linker (or bridging ligands).

Metal ions   +      Organic linkers⎯⎯→       Coordination polymers/ MOFs

The organic ligands or linkers are groups that can donate multiple lone pairs of electrons (polydendate) to the metal ions, whereas the metal ions are made up of vacant orbital shells that can accept these lone pairs of electrons to form a metal-organic framework material.

Metal-organic framework materials are well-defined, adjustable and highly porous materials, with spatial confinement, often crystalline, sensitive to air and resistant to structural collapse upon heating. (Zang et al., 2006)

1.1.1  Metal-Organic Frameworks as Functional Materials

Early research in MOFs tended to concentrate on synthesis of a wide variety of new compounds with novel topologies and compositions. Although the design of new structures remains highly topical and a significant amount of research efforts are still devoted to the discovery of unprecedented network topologies, the primary motivation in crystal engineering of MOFs has shifted toward constructing materials that possess specific physical properties and supramolecular functions, such as catalysis, gas storage, luminescence, nonlinear optical properties (NLO), and magnetism. Photoluminescence is a form of luminescence. Phosphors are luminescent materials that emit light when excited by radiation, and are usually microcrystalline powders or thin-films designed to provide visible color emission. It is a light emission from any form of matter after the absorption of photons. It is a process whereby molecules absorb, stores and emits light and is initiated by photo excitation. (Shinde et al., 2013)

1.2     Synthesis of metal organic framework

Two methods are adopted, namely: (i) conventional (ii) unconventional methods.

1. Conventional synthesis is frequently performed by solvothermal methods; i.e. heating a mixture of organic linker and metal salt in a solvent system. The materials produced from this method are thermally unstable or reactive to solvent used, and this could lead to breaking of bonds or creation of metal sites for guest species such as gases to gain access into the framework’s micropores. In some cases, assisted microwave-solvothermal synthesis can be used, to monitor or regulate the temperature whilst the reaction is in progress. Precipitation and crystallization follows immediately after heating a mixture of a chosen metal ion and organic linker in the presence of a solvent. Thereafter, filtration and drying follows. Slow evaporation method is a conventional method and is advantageous because the crystals assemble themselves though it is time consuming. (Tella et al., 2012)

2. Unconventional Synthesis is frequently performed by grinding a mixture of organic linker and metal salt in an agate mortar and pestle or in a ball mill and in the absence of solvent. This method is known as mechanochemical method. The metal sites are exposed when the mixture is gently heated, thus allowing gases such as hydrogen to bind at these sites. The mechanochemically initiated reactions are comparable to those of solvent reactions. The method is known to be environmentally friendly and can possibly give high yield of products.
(Alex et al., 2005; Tella et al., 2012)

1.2.2 Chemistry of 8-Hydroxyquinoline

8-hydroxyquinoline is an organic compound with the formula C9H7NO. It is a derivative of the heterocyclic quinoline by placement of an OH group on carbon number 8. It is a monoprotic bidentate chelating agent. 8-hydroxyquinoline has a hydrogen atom that is replaceable by a metal, and a heterocyclic nitrogen atom, which forms with these metals a five membered ring. It forms stable complexes with several metal ions.(Sharet al., 2005)

1.2.2  Chemistry of Benzoic acid

Benzoic acid (C6H5COOH) is a colourless crystalline solid and a simple aromatic carboxylic acid. Benzoic acid occurs naturally in many plants and it serves as an intermediate in the biosynthesis of many secondary metabolites. Benzoic acid is an important precursor for the industrial synthesis of many other organic substances. Benzoic acid is mainly consumed in the production of phenol by oxidative decarboxylation at 300-400 0C. It is one of the ligands used in this research work. (Jarad et al., 2011)

1.3     Aim and Objectives of the study

The aim of this research work is to synthesize, characterize, and carry out photoluminescence studies on the mixed ligand complex of Zn(II) ion with 8-hydroxyquinoline and benzoic acid.

The complex will be synthesized using slow evaporation method and characterized by different spectroscopic methods such as:

·        Infra – red spectroscopy to determine the different functional groups present in the complex

·        UV Spectroscopy to study the different energy level

·        Scanning electron microscope to determine morphology and size of the complex

·        Powder X – ray diffraction to determine the crystalline nature and structure of synthesized complex.

1.4     Justification of study

Metal organic frameworks have been seen to have excellent photoluminescent properties. They are capable of sensing ions and detecting explosive molecules. They have significant applications in biological and environmental systems. Conventional solvothermal syntheses are employed to create luminescent metal organic frameworks. In principle, the porous crystalline MOF architecture provides advantages over other sensor materials. In the case of explosives, identification can be accomplished by detecting a byproduct or additive when the explosive itself is not readily detectable (e.g., due to low vapor pressure). The popularity of luminescence over other transduction mechanisms is a consequence of several key elements, such as the production of a signal that is visible by eye. Fluorescence spectroscopy is well established, and detection limits can reach the single molecule level. Another characteristic is the ability to address powdered materials directly, that is, without the need for film fabrication or other processing. (Zhao et al., 2010; Yao et al., 2012; Zhou et al., 2013; Biplab et al., 2014)

1.5    The slow evaporation method        

The slow evaporation method is a conventional method to prepare MOFs, which mostly does not need any external energy supply. Although this method is sometimes preferred because it is a room-temperature process and the crystals gotten are pure because they are self-assembled, its major disadvantage remains that it requires more time compared with other well-known conventional methods. In the slow evaporation method, a solution of the starting materials is concentrated by slow evaporation of the solvent at a fixed temperature, mostly at room temperature. Sometimes the process involves a mixture of solvents, which can increase the solubility of the reagents and can make the process faster by quicker evaporation of low-boiling solvents. (Hu et al., 2005; Ohi et al., 2004; Halper et al., 2006; Yoo et al., 2011).

I actually googled and saw about iproject master, copied the number and contacted them through WhatsApp to ask for the availability of the material and to my luck they have it. So there was a delay with the project due to the covid19 pandemic. I was really scared before making the payment cause I’ve been scammed twice, they attended so well to me and that made me trust the process and made the payment and provided them with proof, I got my material in less than 10minutes
