Metal-organic frameworks as catalysts

초록

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are emerging porous materials with large metal centers, high surface area, structural diversity, flexibility in the design of the active functional organic linkers, and potential for introducing multifunctional sites. They have attracted increasing attention for a range of applications, especially in catalysis. Herein, we review the recent research progress regarding heterogeneous catalysis using MOFs in various organic transformations including chiral reactions in liquid-phase reactions, emphasizing the diversity and significance of MOFs in catalysis based on the active sites such as metal nodes with uncoordinated sites, organic linkers and functionalized species, multifunctional catalytic sites combining metal and organic linkers, and guest species introduced into the pore space in MOFs. © 2020 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
