Abstract
AbstractWith the development of modern industry, global warming is becoming a challenging issue due to the emissions of large quantities of greenhouse gases, mainly carbon dioxide (CO2). The conversion of CO2 to useful compounds is considered as an effective and economic way to solve such a climate problem. Metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) are an emerging class of porous crystalline materials that have shown great potential in the conversion of CO2. The advantages of MOFs in CO 2 conversion lie in their high surface areas, adjustable pore size, and high porosity. More importantly, desirable functional sites can be easily designed and precisely installed to the pore wall of target MOFs by pre‐assembly and/or post‐synthetic modification (PSM) ways. This review summarizes the recent advances in constructing MOF catalysts for the application in CO2 conversion. We believe that the design and synthesis of MOF catalysts for CO2 conversion can be a promising way to solve the “greenhouse effect”.
