Mixed-metal metal organic frameworks have received considerable attention in recent years and it has been shown that the activity of the parent metal organic framework (MOF) is often enhanced upon doping with external metal ions within the framework. In this context, Cu2+ ions with different loadings were incorporated within the ZIF-8 framework to obtain a series of Cu-doped ZIF-8 materials and their activity was examined in the aerobic oxidation of hydrocarbons. The as-synthesized Cu-doped solids were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), ultraviolet diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-DRS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform infrared (FT-IR), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP) analysis. The experimental results revealed that the activity of Cu-doped ZIF-8 is much higher than that of the parent ZIF-8 in all the tested substrates at 120 °C. Furthermore, the activity of the Cu-doped ZIF-8 with the highest Cu loading was eight fold higher than that of the parent ZIF-8 in the aerobic oxidation of cyclooctane (1) at 120 °C with more than 80% selectivity to the corresponding cyclooctanol/cyclooctanone (ol/one) mixture. Cu-doped ZIF-8 was reused two times with no significant drop in its activity under identical conditions. Furthermore, comparison of the two times reused solid with that of the fresh solid by powder XRD and SEM analysis revealed identical structural integrity and morphology, respectively during the oxidation reactions.

In the present work, three "ship in a bottle" Porph@MOMs are reported as biomimetic oxidation catalysts for different reactions. These frameworks are constructed from trimesic acid and metal ions (M = Fe, Co and Mn) in which tetra(N-methyl-4-pyridyl)porphyrin (MTMPyP) is encapsulated within the cavities. Additionally, the catalytic activities of the corresponding homogeneous compounds, FeTMPyP, CoTMPyP and MnTMPyP, and the frameworks without porphyrins within the cavities were investigated in the foregoing oxidation reactions. The prepared 3D porous structures have the ability to control selectivity toward the desired product. Furthermore, they are capable of acting as effective peroxidase mimics, which successfully catalyze the oxidation of diverse olefins as well as hydrocarbons using TBHP as an oxidant. The heterogeneous catalysts significantly enhance conversion in contrast to their corresponding homogeneous systems. Remarkably, an insight into the catalyst behavior was gained from the proposed mechanism based on the reversal of selectivity. Investigation of the stability and reusability of the catalysts revealed the heterogeneity character of the catalyst with no desorption during the course of oxidation reactions. The high yields, clean reactions, high thermal stability and reusability of the catalysts make them good candidates for heterogeneous catalysts in various oxidation reactions.

Ni nanoparticles embedded in nitrogen-doped carbon (Ni@C-N) materials were prepared by thermolysis of a Ni-containing metal-organic framework (Ni-MOF) under inert atmosphere. The as-synthesized Ni@C-N materials were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption-desorption analysis, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, atomic absorption spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The MOF-derived Ni-based materials were then examined as heterogeneous catalysts for the oxidation of alkanes under mild reaction conditions. The Ni@C-N composites displayed high activity and selectivity toward the oxidation of a variety of saturated C-H bonds, affording the corresponding oxidation products in good-to-excellent yields. Furthermore, the catalysts could be recycled and reused for at least four times without any significant loss in activity and selectivity under the investigated conditions.
