Metalation of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) has been developed as a prominent
strategy for materials functionalization for pore chemistry modulation and property …

Natural metalloenzymes with astonishing reaction activity and specificity underpin essential
life transformations. Nevertheless, enzymes only operate under mild conditions to keep …

Although C–H functionalization is one of the simplest reactions, it requires the use of highly
active and selective catalysts. Recently, C–H-active transformations using porous materials …

Isolated atoms featuring unique reactivity are at the heart of enzymatic and homogeneous
catalysts. In contrast, although the concept has long existed, single-atom heterogeneous …

The pursuit of high metal utilization in heterogeneous catalysis has triggered the burgeoning
interest of various atomically dispersed catalysts. Our aim in this review is to assess key …

Selective conversion of methane (CH4) into value-added chemicals represents a grand
challenge for the efficient utilization of rising hydrocarbon sources. We report here dimeric …

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of distinctive porous crystalline materials
constructed by metal ions/clusters and organic linkers. Owing to their structural diversity …

Natural gas, consisting mainly of methane (CH4), has a relatively low energy density at
ambient conditions (~ 36 kJ l− 1). Partial oxidation of CH4 to methanol (CH3OH) lifts the …

Abstract Structure–reactivity relationships for nanoparticle-based catalysts have been
greatly influenced by the study of catalytic materials with either supported isolated metal …

Although the tailored metal active sites and porous architectures of MOFs hold great promise
for engineering challenges ranging from gas separations to catalysis, a lack of …
