Metal–Organic Framework Structures for Cocatalyst-Free CO2 Conversion

A series of metal–organic frameworks synthesized with different metal ions for catalytic CO2 conversion. The dataset likely contains structural and catalytic performance data for six MOFs (Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn) based on 2,5-dibromoterephthalic acid. It was authored by Alehegn Eskemech and uploaded to figshare on 2026-05-22.

Use Cases

• Compare catalytic activity of different metal ions in MOFs based on yield percentages mentioned in the description
• Analyze the relationship between CO2 adsorption affinity and catalytic performance based on the isosteric heat of adsorption (Qst) values
• Study recyclability and structural integrity of MOF catalysts based on the mention of performance over four cycles
• Investigate cocatalyst-free CO2 conversion under mild conditions based on the atmospheric pressure and solvent-free reaction described

Strengths

• Includes specific catalytic yield results for Mn-DBTA (85%) and Co-DBTA (87%)
• Provides CO2 adsorption affinity data (Qst) for Co-DBTA (47.8–28.9 kJ mol–1) and Mn-DBTA (16–28 kJ mol–1)
• Demonstrates recyclability with Co-DBTA maintaining performance over four cycles

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• The dataset is small (811.5 KB), indicating limited scope
