“…In recent years, researchers have drawn inspiration from highly efficient biological systems to develop engineered materials that promote a series of reactions using enzymatic catalysis. − In parallel, scientists have adapted these biological principles into the synthetic realm to engineer materials capable of enhanced activity toward cooperatively catalyzed reactions or cascade reaction networks. In some cases, catalysts require spatial sequestering with the use of a multitude of domains due to incompatibility of active catalyst sites in some cascade reactions. − In other instances, reactions targeting cooperative activation of substrates, cohabitation of catalyst sites in close proximity becomes a design feature. − In both cases, functionalized materials such as polymers, ,− , mesoporous silicas, ,,,,,− ,, zeolites, , and metal–organic frameworks have been used as platforms to host molecular active sites for these purposes. These supports offer significant advantages due to their high surface areas, ease of functionalization, stability, and sometimes inherent catalytic properties.…”
