The structural advantages of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can facilitate wide applications in the field catalysis, including oxidation, hydrogenation, acetalization, transesterification, catalytic cracking, and so on. efficiency catalysis is closely related to synergy between active center, auxiliary microenvironment. Researchers customize MOFs according needs reactions, many strategies were...

Synchrotron radiation techniques are widely applied in materials research and heterogeneous catalysis. In homogeneous catalysis, its use so far is rather limited despite its high potential. Here, insights in the strengths and limitations of X-ray spectroscopy technique in the field of homogeneous catalysis are given, including new technique developments. A relevant homogeneous catalyst, used in...

The combination of heterogeneous catalysis and biocatalysis into one-pot reaction cascades is a potential approach to integrate enzymatic transformations existing chemical infrastructure.
