De novo synthesis of Cr-embedded MOF-199 and derived porous CuO/CuCr2O4 composites for enhanced phenol hydroxylation†
Abstract
A de novo synthesis of Cr-embedded MOF-199 was developed for the first time. This Cr-MOF-199 material was further derived into CuO/CuCr2O4 composites with a porous and uniform structure. The obtained bimetallic oxides with a porous structure were further applied in phenol hydroxylation.
