Mechanism of Single-Site Molecule-Like Catalytic Ethylene Dimerization in Ni-MFU-4

A recently developed metal–organic framework (MOF) catalyst for the dimerization of ethylene has a combination of selectivity and activity that surpasses that of commercial homogeneous catalysts, which have dominated this important industrial process for nearly 50 years. The uniform catalytic sites...
