Özet

The safety storage of hydrogen molecule is an important issue for researchers. Today, hydrogen adsorption and detection is one of these issues. In this study, the interactions of calix[4]arene macrocycle and its metal complexes with hydrogen molecule were investi-gated by Density Functional Theory (DFT) method. WB97XD hybrid method was used in DFT calculations. The most stable complexes of calix[4]arenes with metal atoms were determined. All interactions were determined to be weak van der Waals interactions. It has been revealed that metal atoms in the complexes have positive effect on adsorption and the best adsorbent is the Fe-calix[4]arene complex. It has been determined that pristine calix[4]arene compound can be used as an electronic sensor against hydrogen molecule at room temperature.& COPY; 2022 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC.
