Improved catalytic performance of Co-MOF-74 by nanostructure construction†
Abstract
Herein, we demonstrate for the first time the construction of hollow structural Co-MOF-74, whose shell is as thin as ∼50 nm and assembled by nanoparticles ranging from 8 to 18 nm. It exhibits high performance for the photocatalytic oxidation of thioanisole and thermocatalytic cyanosilylation of aldehydes.
