TL;DR: The role of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in the field of catalysis is discussed, and special focus is placed on their assets and limits in light of current challenges in catalysis and green chemistry.
Abstract: The role of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in the field of catalysis is discussed, and special focus is placed on their assets and limits in light of current challenges in catalysis and green chemistry. Their structural and dynamic features are presented in terms of catalytic functions along with how MOFs can be designed to bridge the gap between zeolites and enzymes. The contributions of MOFs to the field of catalysis are comprehensively reviewed and a list of catalytic candidates is given. The subject is presented from a multidisciplinary point of view covering solid-state chemistry, materials science, and catalysis.

TL;DR: In this paper, solid Bronsted catalysts such as Cs2HPW12O40 and HY zeolite have been used to accelerate cellulose depolymerization.
Abstract: Crystalline cellulose treated in hydrothermal conditions (190 °C, 24 h) is partially solubilised, 30%, into water soluble oligosaccharides/polymers with the formation of small amounts of glucose and 5-HMF. In the presence of solid Bronsted catalysts such as Cs2HPW12O40 and HY zeolite, the extent of the cellulose depolymerisation was not changed when no leaching occurred. However, a quite different products distribution was obtained, in favour of further transformations of glucose and HMF in levulinic and formic acids. On the opposite, solid Lewis acids such as tungstated zirconia (ZrW) and tungstated alumina (AlW) exhibited a remarkable promoting effect on the cellulose depolymerisation which was raised up to 45% while an unexpected decrease of the proportion of water soluble oligosaccharides/polymers was observed. Yields of 27 mol% and 18.5 mol% in lactic acid were achieved on AlW and ZrW, respectively. Moreover, these tungsten based Lewis acids exhibited a good stability and recyclability. The efficiency of the solid Lewis acids ZrW and AlW to produce lactic acid directly from crystalline cellulose was explained by a positive synergy between water autoprotolysis responsible of the cellulose depolymerisation into soluble intermediates which are further converted on the solid Lewis catalyst surface.

TL;DR: The Vorzuge und Einschrankungen von Metall-organischen Gerusten (MOFs) auf dem Gebiet der Katalyse and der Grunen Chemie bilden das Thema dieses Kurzaufsatzes as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: Die Vorzuge und Einschrankungen von Metall-organischen Gerusten (MOFs) auf dem Gebiet der Katalyse und der “grunen Chemie” bilden das Thema dieses Kurzaufsatzes. Struktur und Dynamik der MOFs werden im Zusammenhang katalytischer Funktionen betrachtet, und es wird diskutiert, wie durch das Design solcher Materialien die Lucke zwischen Zeolithen und Enzymen zu schliesen ist. Arbeiten uber MOFs auf dem Gebiet der Katalyse werden umfassend dargestellt, und als Erganzung wurde eine Liste mit potenziell katalytisch aktiven MOFs zusammengetragen. Das Thema wird von einem multidisziplinaren Standpunkt aus betrachtet, der die Festkorperchemie, die Materialwissenschaften und die Katalyse umfasst.

TL;DR: Metal-organic frameworks are porous materials that have potential for applications such as gas storage and separation, as well as catalysis, and methods are being developed for making nanocrystals and supercrystals of MOFs for their incorporation into devices.
Abstract: Crystalline metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are formed by reticular synthesis, which creates strong bonds between inorganic and organic units. Careful selection of MOF constituents can yield crystals of ultrahigh porosity and high thermal and chemical stability. These characteristics allow the interior of MOFs to be chemically altered for use in gas separation, gas storage, and catalysis, among other applications. The precision commonly exercised in their chemical modification and the ability to expand their metrics without changing the underlying topology have not been achieved with other solids. MOFs whose chemical composition and shape of building units can be multiply varied within a particular structure already exist and may lead to materials that offer a synergistic combination of properties.
