Utilization of metal-organic frameworks as heterogeneous catalysts is crucial owing to their abundant catalytic sites and well-defined porous structures. Highly robust [Cu3(trz)3(μ3-OH)(OH)2(H2O)4]∙2H2O (trz = 1,2,4-triazole) was employed as a catalyst...
Surface-active imidazolium nitrates activate hydrogen peroxide, which enables the epoxidation of olefins. The micelles solubilise the substrate in the aqueous oxidant phase and allow for simple product separation and catalyst recycling.
