What is Catalysis about?
The document discusses how the metal-organic framework ZIF-8 is shown to catalyze transesterification reactions without any functional groups on the framework. Infrared spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations are used to probe the acidic and basic sites on the external surface of ZIF-8, finding a variety of sites including OH, NH, and low-coordinated Zn atoms that contribute to the catalytic activity.
