Decorating nonpolar units in robust MOFs for one-step purification of C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>4</sub> from C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>2</sub>/C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>4</sub>/C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>6</sub>
A post-synthetic modification approach was proposed to introduce nonpolar unit ferrocene into a C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>2</sub>-selective MOF to enhance C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>6</sub> selectivity. Benefiting from the nonpolar moieties and suitable pore confinement, the obtained materials exhibited higher selectivity for C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>6</sub> and C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>2</sub> over C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>4</sub>, achieving one-step purification of high-purity C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>4</sub> from a ternary C<sub>2</sub> mixture.
