A process for the carbonylation of epoxides in the presence of catalyst systems, wherein the carbonylation takes place in the presence of carbon monoxide, and wherein the catalyst system contains a molybdenum-based compound. Carbonylation products as well as carbonylation derivatives and to the use of the claimed catalyst systems for the carbonylation of epoxides are also provided.

[Problem] To provide a novel artificial protein catalyst that enables the protection of a catalyst from substances in vivo and has potential usefulness in therapeutic in vivo synthetic chemistry.

[Solution] Provided is a complex of a protein and a catalyst selected from a metal catalyst or organic catalyst. In the complex according to the present invention, the protein is a protein having a hydrophobic pocket in the three-dimensional structure thereof, and the catalyst is housed in the hydrophobic pocket so that the catalyst is not or substantially not exposed to a hydrophilic environment.

A method for manufacturing a modified porous organic framework includes steps as follows. A mixed solution is provided. The mixed solution includes a porous organic framework, a plurality of group donors and a solvent. The porous organic framework includes a plurality of first ligands. Each of the first ligands includes at least one tetrazine group. Each of the group donors includes a reactive group and a modifying group covalently connected with each other. The reactive groups are alkenyl groups, alkynyl groups, aldehyde groups, ketone groups or a combination thereof. A modifying step is conducted, wherein at least one of the reactive groups of the group donors is reacted with at least one of the tetrazine groups of the first ligands, so that at least one of the modifying groups of the group donors is covalently connected with the porous organic framework, whereby the modified porous organic framework is obtained.
