“…Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), featuring molecular/atomic-level active sites, precisely tailored scaffolds, and tunable coordination microenvironment, hold great promise in molecularly customizing the active sites of enzymes. − The catalytic units and recognition binding units of enzymes can be mirrored in the structure and composition of MOFs via a vast library of metal–ligand coordination bonds. Lewis acid metal centers assist electron transfer from substrates, and their subsequent activation and conversion, which points out the direction for manipulating enzyme-like catalytic activities and types. , Also, the ligand-induced steric effect dominates the conformational adaptation and the free rotation of the substrate, which sheds light on obtaining high-level catalytic selectivity. , Thus, the conjugation of ligand-binding metal centers can be designed rationally in pursuit of duplicating enzyme-like structure and reactivity. Meanwhile, chiral ligands can be delicately tailored around the catalytic sites for targeted stereoselectivity by transferring the ligand asymmetry to the reactions.…”
