Abstract
The conversion of chemically modified biomass into more valuable chemicals has recently gained significant attention from industry. In this study, we investigate the adsorption of fructose and its conversion into two trioses, glyceraldehyde (GLA) and dihydroxyacetone (DHA), on metal-organic frameworks using density functional theory calculations. The reaction mechanism proceeds through two main steps: first, the opening of the fructose ring; second, the retro-aldol fragmentation, which is favored over intramolecular hydrogen shifts. The substitution of a tetravalent metal in the metal-organic framework leads to different adsorption strengths in the order Hf-NU-1000 > Zr-NU-1000 > Ti-NU-1000. The catalytic activities of Hf-NU-1000 and Zr-NU-1000 are found to be similar. Both are more active than Ti-NU1000, corresponding to their relative Lewis acidity. It was found that functionalization of the organic linkers of the Hf-NU-1000 MOF does not improve its catalytic activity. The catalytic activity follows the order Hf-MOF-808 > Hf-NU-1000 > Hf-UIO-66 when based on either the overall activation energy or the turnover frequency (TOF).

SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024; 20:e2306353.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) represent a relatively new family of materials that attract lots of attention thanks to their unique features such as hierarchical porosity, active metal centers, versatility of linkers/metal nodes, and large surface area. Among the extended list of MOFs, Zr-based-MOFs demonstrate comparably superior chemical and thermal stabilities, making them ideal candidates for energy and environmental applications. As a Zr-MOF, NU-1000 is first synthesized at Northwestern University. A comprehensive review of various approaches to the synthesis of NU-1000 MOFs for obtaining unique surface properties (e.g., diverse surface morphologies, large surface area, and particular pore size distribution) and their applications in the catalysis (electro-, and photo-catalysis), CO2 reduction, batteries, hydrogen storage, gas storage/separation, and other environmental fields are presented. The review further outlines the current challenges in the development of NU-1000 MOFs and their derivatives in practical applications, revealing areas for future investigation.

Abstract
Dehydrogenation of an organic compound is the first and the most fundamental elementary reaction in many organic reactions. In ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR) to form CO 2 , there are a total of 46 pathways in C 2 H x O (x=1-6) species leading to the removal of all six hydrogen atoms in five C-H bonds and one O-H bond. To investigate the degree of dehydrogenation in EOR under operando conditions, we performed density function theory (DFT) calculations to study 28 dehydrogenation steps of C 2 H x O on Ir(100). An activation energy surface was then constructed and compared with that of the C-C bond cleavages to understand the importance of the degree of dehydrogenation in EOR. The results show that there are likely 28 dehydrogenations in EOR under fuel cell temperatures and the last two hydrogens in C 2 H 2 O are less likely cleaved. On the other hand, deep dehydrogenation including 45 dehydrogenations can occur under ethanol steam reforming conditions.
