Multifunctional Polymolybdate-Based Metal–Organic Framework as an EfficientCatalyst for the CO 2 Cycloaddition and as the Anode ofa Lithium-Ion Battery

A three-dimensional polymolybdate-based metal–organic framework (POMOF) consisting of Zn-e-Keggin unit and organic linker, {[PMo8VMo4VIO37(OH)3Zn4][BPE]2}·[BPE] (1), was successfully obtained by the hydrothermal method. Compound 1 is composed of Zn-e-Keggin units and BPE ligands, featuring a fascinating 5-fold interpenetrating framework with dia topology. The catalytic performance of compound 1 was investigated, and experiments showed that 1 could effectively facilitate the cycloaddition reaction of CO2 with epoxides as Lewis acid heterogeneous catalyst. Moreover, compound 1 also was studied as LIBs anode material, and it showed reversible capacity of 546 mA h g–1 at 100th cycle.
