Background

Metal-organic frameworks have been shown to be applicable to catalysis, among many other applications, as highlighted three chemists doing seminal work in this field being awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2025.

A catalytic molybdenum metal-organic framework was synthesized from porphyrin and sodium molybdate dihydrate by a hydrothermal method.

The framework was characterized and shown to catalyze oxidation of cyclohexene.

Here the crystal structure of catalytic molybdenum metal-organic framework is featured.
