Strength and Nature of Host‐Guest Interactions in Metal‐Organic Frameworks from a Quantum‐Chemical Perspective
Abstract: Metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) offer a convenient means for capturing, transporting, and releasing small molecules. Their rational design requires an in‐depth understanding of the underlying non‐covalent host‐guest interactions, and the ability to easily and rapidly pre‐screen candidate architectures in silico. In this work, we devised a recipe for computing the strength and analysing the nature of the host‐guest interactions in MOFs. By assessing a range of density functional theory methods across periodic and finite supramolecular cluster scale we find that appropriately constructed clusters readily reproduce the key interactions occurring in periodic models at a fraction of the computational cost. Host‐guest interaction energies can be reliably computed with dispersion‐corrected density functional theory methods; however, decoding their precise nature demands insights from energy decomposition schemes and quantum‐chemical tools for bonding analysis such as the quantum theory of atoms in molecules, the non‐covalent interactions index or the density overlap regions indicator.
