To better understand the structure–catalytic property relationship, a platform of urea-containing MOFs with diverse topologies as hydrogen-bonding (H-bond) catalyst has been well established in the pr
A series of unsymmetrical pyridine-bridged bis-pincer-type iron(II) complexes were synthesized, and the complexes were used as catalysts for the cycloaddition of CO2 and epoxides. At ambient temperat
Zr-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with well-defined Zr oxo clusters emerged as a promising class of heterogeneous catalysts. Defects on these metal-oxide clusters are central to understanding t
Chemical warfare agents (CWAs), and in particular organophosphorus nerve agents, still pose a significant threat to society due to their continued use despite international bans. While nature has cons
Molecular catalysts offer tremendous advantages for stereoselective polymerization because their activity and selectivity can be optimized and understood mechanistically using the familiar tools of or
