Porous metal-organic frameworks of Zr6O4(OH)(4) clusters connected by organic linkers of 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate (UiO-66) and biphenyl-4,4'-dicarboxylate (UiO-67) were prepared using a solvothermal method and used as efficient catalysts for acetalization of benzaldehydes with alcohols. UiO-66 showed better catalytic activity than UiO-67, (i.e. 91% vs 86%) when the catalyst was employed in the benzaldehyde acetalization in methanol for an hour at r.t. (28 degrees C). UiO-66 was further explored as the catalyst to observe effects of catalyst concentrations, alcohols, bulkier benzaldehydes, and recyclability. The performance of other catalysts, including the MOF precursor, was also examined to compare the activity and to explain the importance of a MOF structure. Relative Lewis acidity of Zr in UiO-66 and UiO-67 was achieved by natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis using DFT/B3LYP method. It was found that accessibility of substrates to internal active sites might play a dominant role than the Lewis acidity of Zr-MOFs. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
