The present invention discloses a process for the photocatalytic splitting of water using self-assembled metalloporphyrin 2D-sheet of formula (I) to form hydrogen and oxygen.

The present disclosure relates to an organometallic framework modified using a compound having a hydroxyl group (—OH), a catalyst for a hydrogenation reaction including the same, and a method of manufacturing the same. The catalyst according to the present disclosure has high activity to the hydrogenation reaction even at a low temperature of 30 to 40° C., thus making low-grade waste heat usable.

The present disclosure discloses a core-shell structured NiSe.sub.2@NC electrocatalytic material having a general formula of NiSe.sub.2@NC. The present disclosure also provides a preparation method and use of the catalytic material. In the present disclosure, hydrazine hydrate is used as a reducing agent, selenium powders are used as a source of selenium, and a metal-organic framework (MOF) is used as a precursor. Selective selenization of mixed-linker MOFs based on mixed ligands is carried out through a hydrothermal reaction. Then, a series of adjustable N-doped carbon-coated NiSe.sub.2 nano-octahedrons are prepared through a one-step calcination reaction. By adjusting the types of mixed ligands in the MOF, carbon-coated nickel diselenide composites doped with different pyridinic-N contents can be obtained. Corresponding electrochemical tests prove that, the electrocatalytic activity has a strong correlation with the content of pyridinic-N.

Described herein is a simple and versatile synthetic strategy for the preparation of metal-organic frameworks comprising a carbon matrix doped with nitrogen atoms, wherein transition metal ions are bonded to the carbon matrix via the nitrogen atoms. This strategy is applicable for the synthesis of single metal catalysts or multi metal catalysts rich with atomically dispersed metal active sites. The metal-organic frameworks provided herein have numerous application when used in fuel cells.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) comprising amines on the organic linker can be used for cell targeting. In particular, primary amine groups represent one of the most versatile chemical moieties for conjugation to biologically relevant molecules, including antibodies and enzymes. Different chemical conjugation schemes can be used to conjugate biological molecules to the amino functionality on the organic linker. For example, carbodiimide chemistry can be used to link a primary amine to available carboxyl groups on the protein. For example, sulfhydryl crosslinking chemistry can be used via Traut's reagent scheme. As a demonstration of the invention, the ability of EpCAM antibody-targeted MOFs to bind to a human epithelial cell line (A549), a common target for imaging studies, was confirmed with confocal microscopy.
