MOFs-Based Catalysts Supported Chemical Conversion of CO2

CO2 Derivatives of Molecular Tin Compounds. Part 1: Hemicarbonato and Carbonato Complexes

“…In this way, carbon dioxide appears to be a potential renewable C1 raw material, rather than a waste, offering new opportunities for chemical reactions [7][8][9]. Currently, a great level of attention is being paid to the design of porous coordination polymers (PCPs) or metal-organic frameworks (MOF), owing to their absorption properties [10], but also transforming CO 2 [11]. Thus, the chemical utilization of carbon dioxide has become a crucial issue, in particular in view of the environmental challenges that humanity has to face, i.e., (i) the depletion of fossil carbon resources, and (ii) the continuous increase in CO 2 emissions and its consequences on the climate.…”

Trends and Prospects in UiO‐66 Metal‐Organic Framework for CO2 Capture, Separation, and Conversion

“…Along with this unique stability, UiO‐66 has several other properties that enable it to act effectively in CO 2 conversion. Although few review articles have already been published recently by Yaghi et al., Ludovic et al., and Zhao et al., that have dealt with different types of CO 2 conversion in detail by using different MOFs and their composites [36,71,79,80] . Herein, we have highlighted only the role of UiO‐66 in the CO 2 conversion (summarized in Table 4) due to the following reasons; a) easy structural designability and chemical tunability; b) act as templates and precursors to afford MOF composites that can be used in CO 2 conversion; c) combine both heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysis characteristics, such as stability, reusability, separation, and catalytic efficiency; d) the unique structure of UiO‐66 enhances the interpretation of the structure‐property relationship in the CO 2 conversions.…”

“…Inspired by the advancements mentioned above and by the vast available literature on UiO‐66 MOF as illustrated in Figure 3, the current review, therefore, focuses on UiO‐66 MOFs for CO 2 capture, separation and conversion applications. Although there are numerous papers and reviews covering MOFs applied to CO 2 capture, separation, and conversion [15,71–80] . However, this review′s importance lies particularly in the versatility of the pristine, functionalized and composites of UiO‐66 MOFs materials covering the literature from 2008 to 2020.…”

Towards a selective synthetic route for cobalt amino acid complexes and their application in ring opening polymerization of rac-lactide

“…35,36 Early studies reported high reactivity and stereocontrolled ROP of lactide mediated by a chiral amino acid as an organocatalyst. 37 Over the last decade research on metal-amino acid compounds has focused on the formation of metal organic framework (MOFs) 38 that exhibit interesting applications in research eld such as CO 2 capture, 39 gas separation, and catalysis. 40,41 However, applications of chiral catalysts with single a hexacoordinated metallic center bearing amino acids and bipy as ligands have been limited due to lack of vacant coordination site that is a crucial feature in ring opening polymerization reaction catalysts.…”
