Abstract

<p>Recent reports on utilization of polymeric cyano-bridged metal complexes, which have reticular structures utilizing MC–CN–MN coordination networks, as heterogeneous catalysts have been reviewed. Among the complexes, the most widely investigated ones contain zinc ions at MN sites acting as Lewis acid, where polymerization of epoxide such as propylene oxide, esterification of fatty acids, and hydrolysis of glycerides are catalyzed. Another class of complexes containing redox active transition metals such as iron(II), cobalt(II) and copper(II) at MN sites, catalyze oxidation and reduction reactions. Some complexes thermally oxidize benzene and styrene to phenol and styrene oxide with hydrogen peroxide, respectively. Additionally, some complexes can also photocatalyze Fenton reaction to decompose organic dyes with hydrogen peroxide, benzene oxidation to phenol with molecular oxygen, and water oxidation to evolve dioxygen together with a photosensitizer. All the complexes allow the improvements to achieve highly active catalysts based on atomic insights with various manners.</p>
