An exceptionally stable core-shell MOF/COF bifunctional catalyst for a highly efficient cascade deacetalization-Knoevenagel condensation reaction

Chem Commun (Camb). 2019 May 30;55(45):6377-6380. doi: 10.1039/c9cc02174d.

Abstract

A novel strategy has been developed to construct a highly stable core-shell MOF@COF (PCN-222-Co@TpPa-1) bifunctional catalyst through strong π-π stacking interaction. This hybrid material with spatially isolated antagonistic acid-base sites can effectively catalyze the deacetalization-Knoevenagel condensation cascade reaction.
