Abstract

Metal–organic framework (MOF) nanoparticles, in the form of porous synchronized polymers, provide essence to nanomaterial science, with a central vitality in catalysis. Engineering synergies between metal nodes, functional linkers, encapsulating substrates, or nanoparticles enables these MOF-based nanocatalysts to accomplish extraordinary numerous and selective heterogeneous interactions and activations. Transformation of MOF composites enriches graphitized pores with N/P doping derivatives of MOF nanomaterials, and these are vastly utilized as efficient electrocatalysts/photocatalysts. The first section briefly summarizes the history of MOF nanoparticle catalysis. The outline briefly covers organic and molecular reaction catalysis, photocatalysis, and electrocatalysis. Heterogeneous catalysis assists in solving various challenges aroused in environment and energy utilizing various synthesis strategies. Besides tremendous success in research, extensive progress is due for further improvements, particularly for selective methane oxidation, hydrogen production, and water splitting, and CO2 reduction to methanol, nitrogen fixation, and water pollution reduction are all possibilities.
