Host structure influences the catalytic performance of porous liquids in CO 2 cycloaddition
Abstract Porous liquids (PLs) are a class of novel functional materials with permanent pore structures, showing unique potential for the CO 2 cycloaddition. However, how the host structure influences the catalytic performance of PLs remains unclear, hindering the development of f...

Design and mechanistic study of hollow SiO 2 ‐based porous liquids for catalytic CO 2 cycloaddition
Abstract Porous liquids (PLs) are novel materials with permanent pores, showing promise for gas capture and catalysis. Hollow SiO 2 (HS) is commonly used to construct Type I PLs due to its well‐defined structure and functionalizable surface. Here, ionic liquids IL1–5 with catalyt...
