MOF-based catalysts: insights into the chemical transformation of greenhouse and toxic gases

“…According to the reaction conditions and the wavelength, the following can be obtained as reaction products: CO, formic acid, methanol, and methane. 103 In addition to the importance of the metal center, the ligand can contribute to photoreduction. It is the case of ligands with μ-OH groups, which can function as H-bond donors to improve photocatalytic reduction performance.…”

A copper(ii) metal–organic framework with 2,2-dimethylglutarate and imidazole ligands: synthesis, characterization and catalytic performance for cycloaddition of CO2 to epoxides

“…Scientists doing research in this field have created some heterogeneous catalysts for CO 2 chemical conversion, keeping in mind the problems of product purification and catalyst recycling in homogeneous catalytic processes. 11…”

Solar energy and the circular economy: An introduction

“…Successful capturing of CO 2 from the air, other than by production of biomass by agriculture and forestry and ocean plankton, can help meet the goals of the Paris Agreement. Pettinari and Tombesi present two papers on the use of molecular frameworks for carbon dioxide storage [14] and carbon dioxide conversion [15]. Hernandez and Sheehan [16] present a carbon dioxide reduction technology, which can outperform the natural CO 2 assimilation of trees.…”
