One of the key challenges in separation science is the lack of precise ion separation methods and mechanistic understanding crucial for efficiently recovering critical materials from complex aqueous matrices. Herein, first‐principles electronic structure calculations and in situ Raman spectroscopy are studied to elucidate the factors governing ion discrimination in an adsorptive membrane specifically designed for transition metal ion separation. Density functional theory calculations and in situ Raman data jointly reveal the thermodynamically favorable binding preferences and detailed adsorption mechanisms for competing ions. How membrane binding preferences correlate with the electronic properties of ligands is explored, such as orbital hybridization and electron localization. The findings underscore the importance of the phenolate group in oxime ligands for achieving high selectivity among competing transition metal ions. In‐depth understanding on which specific atomistic site within the microenvironment of metal‐ligand binding pockets governs the ion discrimination behaviors of the host will build a solid foundation to guide the rational design of next‐generation materials for precision separation essential for energy technologies and environment remediation. In tandem, synthetic controllability is demonstrated to transform 3D micrometer‐scale crystals to a 2D crystalline selective layer in membranes, paving the way for more precise and sustainable advances in separation science. |
