Periodic Mesoporous Organosilicas (PMOs) were developed in 1999 and are basically
ordered templated mesoporous organosilicas, prepared by the combination of a surfactant …

The introduction of organic functionalities into porous inorganic materials not only makes the
resulting hybrid porous framework to be more flexible and hydrophobic, but also provides …

In this Perspective, we describe the use of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) as
heterogeneous catalysts for oxidations using hydroperoxides or molecular oxygen. These …

Periodic mesoporous organosilicas (PMOs) represent an exciting new class of organic−
inorganic nanocomposites targeted for a broad range of applications such as catalysis and …

Nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC) has been used to template ethylene-bridged mesoporous
organosilica films with long-range chirality and photonic properties. The structural color of …

In this work, we demonstrate cooperative asymmetric catalysis by a metal–organic
framework (MOF) as exemplified in the context of catalyzing cyanation of aldehydes with a …

This perspective article is aimed at providing a comparison of similarities and dissimilarities
between the catalytic properties of zeolites and metal organic frameworks (MOFs). In the first …

Homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis have developed independently as two
separate disciplines. Homogeneous catalysis is characterized by the use of highly active …

Zeolites have a microporous system defining large cavities interconnected by smaller
windows. These cages can accommodate large molecules whose size, however, can be too …

Periodic mesoporous organosilica with a heterocyclic bridging group of large molecular
weight, tris [3-(trimethoxysilyl) propyl] isocyanurate, is reported. Incorporation of an organic …
