Activated borane (ActB) is a metal- and halogen-free porous borane cluster polymer that effectively serves as a heterogeneous catalyst for hydrodehalogenation of aliphatic fluorides and chlorides, using triethylsilane as a reductant. It demonstrates high thermal stability, reusability, and significant Lewis acidity, making it capable of achieving full dehalogenation with high turnover numbers, even after multiple […]

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are widely researched but applied only in few commercial processes among others due to unknown stability. This study evaluates the stability of four zirconium-based MOFs with different linkers in water at pH 3.0 to 11.0. Results indicate that MOFs with tetratopic linkers (PCN-222, MIP-200) are more stable than those with ditopic or […]
