Two-Dimensional Metal–Organic Layers on Carbon Nanotubes to Overcome Conductivity Constraint in Electrocatalysis
Source abstract
Abstract
Application of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in electrocatalysis is of great interest, but is limited by low electrical conductivities of most MOFs. To overcome this limitation, we constructed a two-dimensional version of MOF-metal-organic layer (MOL) on conductive multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) via facile solvothermal synthesis. The redox-active MOLs supported on the CNT efficiently catalyze the electrochemical oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes and ketones. Interestingly, this CNT/MOL assembly also endowed the selectivity for primary versus secondary alcohols via well-designed interfacial interactions. This work opens doors toward a variety of designer electrocatalysts built from functional MOFs.
