Abstract

This study investigates the synthesis, application, and prospective advancements of bio-inspired materials, with a particular emphasis on Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs). These biomimetic MOFs, which emulate the catalytic mechanisms of natural enzymes, exhibit superior performance in diverse domains. The research demonstrates the exceptional catalytic efficacy, selectivity, and sustainability of bio-inspired MOFs, driven by their unique structural and functional properties. However, significant challenges persist, including high synthesis and development costs, scalability limitations, and the necessity for thorough biocompatibility and environmental impact assessments. Addressing these challenges demands interdisciplinary collaboration and innovative methodologies in the design and fabrication of bio-inspired materials. The study concludes that, despite the substantial opportunities presented by bio-inspired MOFs for technological innovation and sustainability, overcoming the existing technical and economic barriers is crucial for their broader implementation.

自然启发的金属有机框架：挑战、创新和前景

本研究探讨了仿生材料的合成、应用和前景进展，特别强调了金属有机框架（MOFs）。这些模拟天然酶催化机制的仿生MOFs在不同领域表现出优异的性能。该研究表明，由于其独特的结构和功能特性，仿生mof具有卓越的催化功效、选择性和可持续性。然而，重大的挑战仍然存在，包括高合成和开发成本，可扩展性限制，以及彻底的生物相容性和环境影响评估的必要性。解决这些挑战需要跨学科的合作和创新的方法来设计和制造仿生材料。该研究的结论是，尽管受生物启发的mof为技术创新和可持续性提供了大量机会，但克服现有的技术和经济障碍对其更广泛的实施至关重要。

期刊介绍： Polyhedron publishes original, fundamental, experimental and theoretical work of the highest quality in all the major areas of inorganic chemistry. This includes synthetic chemistry, coordination chemistry, organometallic chemistry, bioinorganic chemistry, and solid-state and materials chemistry. Papers should be significant pieces of work, and all new compounds must be appropriately characterized. The inclusion of single-crystal X-ray structural data is strongly encouraged, but papers reporting only the X-ray structure determination of a single compound will usually not be considered. Papers on solid-state or materials chemistry will be expected to have a significant molecular chemistry component (such as the synthesis and characterization of the molecular precursors and/or a systematic study of the use of different precursors or reaction conditions) or demonstrate a cutting-edge application (for example inorganic materials for energy applications). Papers dealing only with stability constants are not considered.
