Tuning the Catalytic Properties of UiO-66 Metal-Organic Frameworks: From Lewis to Defect-Induced Brønsted Acidity

The Lewis/Brønsted acidity and catalytic properties of UiO-66-type metal-organic frameworks are studied in the context of tunable acid catalysts based on the presence of linker defects that create coordinatively unsaturated Zr4+ centers. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy of adsorbed CO and dir...
