Tubular metal organic frameworks from the curvature of 2D-honeycombed metal coordination†
Abstract
A tubular MOF with adequate active sites is prepared by the bending of metal-coordinated honeycombed frameworks via titration and shows fast catalytic kinetics with lower catalytic loading for CO2 conversion. The TON is observed to be 2300 and the corresponding TOF of up to 173 h−1 is achieved for the first time.
