We successively introduce new catalytic centers through click reaction into MOFs and modify their environment by addition of lipophilic groups. The resulting bifunctionalized MOF provides an optimized balance between basicity and lipophilicity and shows outstanding performance for the transesterification reaction.

Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) gaining increasing interest in heterogeneous catalysis owing to their advantageous properties such as superior porosity, high surface area, ample catalytic sites. Their properties can be tailored by varying the metal ions or metal clusters (nodes) and organic linkers. Magnetically active nano core-shell MOF composites are also discovered for easy separation and reuse of catalyst.

The photocatalytic reduction of CO in water to produce fuels and chemicals is promising while challenging. However, many photocatalysts for accomplishing such challenging task usually suffer from unspecific catalytic active sites and the inefficient charge carrier's separation. Here, a site-specific single-atom Ni/TiO catalyst is reported by in situ topological transformation of Ni-Ti-EG bimetallic metal-organic frameworks.

Integrating enzymes with reticular frameworks offers promising avenues for access to functionally tailorable biocatalysis. This Minireview explores recent advances in enzyme-reticular frameworks hybrid biocomposites, focusing on the utilization of porous reticular frameworks, including metal-organic frameworks, covalent-organic frameworks, and hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks, to regulate the reactivity of an enzyme encapsulated inside mainly by pore infiltration and in situ encapsulation strategies. We highlight how pore engineering and host-guest interfacial interactions within reticular frameworks create tailored microenvironments that substantially impact the mass transfer and enzyme's conformation, leading to biocatalytic rate enhancement, or imparting enzyme with non-native biocatalytic functions including substrate-selectivity and new activity.

Background: Integrating natural enzymes and nanomaterials exhibiting tailored enzyme-like activities is an effective strategy for the application of cascade reactions. It is essential to develop a highly efficient and robust glucose oxidase-catalase (GOx-CAT) cascade system featuring controllable enzyme activity, a reliable supply of oxygen, and improved stability for glucose depletion in cancer starvation therapy. However, the ambiguous relationship between structure and performance, and the difficulty in controlling enzyme-mimic activity, significantly hinder their broader application.
