Abstract

Methane trapped in the two distinct dodecahedral cages of the ionic clathrate hydrate of TBAB was studied by single crystal XRD and MD simulation. The relative CH₄ occupancies over the cage types were opposite to those of CO₂, which illustrates the interplay between the cage symmetry and guest shape and dynamics, and thus the gas selectivity.
