Structures and mechanisms of CO<sub>2</sub> cycloaddition with styrene oxide on bimetallic M–Cu–BTC MOFs (M = Mg, Ca, Al, and Ga): a DFT study
Jakkapan Sirijaraensre
Abstract
The Al–Cu–BTC catalyst having the strongest interaction with the SO molecule is the most promising catalyst for the conversion of CO<sub>2</sub> to cyclic carbonate.
