Abstract:Metal-organic polyhedra (MOPs) are discrete molecules made of metal ions/clusters and organic ligands, and their crystal packing leads to the generation of intrinsic and extrinsic porosity. Due to their structural versatility, porosity, and nanoscale size, MOPs are considered an attractive platform for catalysis. In this study, we report for the first time the use of three zirconium(IV)-based MOPs for the degradation of trace concentrations of the nerve agent simulant, dimethyl 4-nitrophenyl phosphate (DMNP). … Show more
