Hybrid Zeolitic Imidazolate Frameworks with Catalytically Active TO₄ Building Blocks

Abstract

Catalytic cavities: Hybrid zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (HZIFs) integrate compositional and structural features of inorganic zeolites and zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs). The combination of catalytically active TO4 tetrahedra with zinc–imidazolate units leads to a new kind of porous material with distinct framework topology, unusual high thermal stability, and catalytic properties.
