A tri-functional metal–organic framework heterogeneous catalyst for efficient conversion of CO₂ under mild and co-catalyst free conditions

Abstract

A novel tri-functional MOF catalyst was achieved by PSM method. Because of the synergistic effect of Lewis acid, Brønsted acid and Br⁻ anion, MIL-IMAc-Br⁻ displayed an efficient catalytic performance for CO₂ conversion.
