4.2.5 Catalytic test reactions<br />

Ethylene dimerization utilizing MOF supported catalysts has recently attracted a lot of<br />

attention due to its modifiable characteristic under molecular level. [231-234] Most of the<br />

reported MOF catalysts bear isolated single-metal (e.g., Ni, Ir) active-sites. Ru-MOF<br />

materials as heterogeneous catalysts for the ethylene dimerization have not been studied<br />

yet, although chemisorbed Ru-complex on de-aluminated zeolite Y and Ru-complex itself<br />

catalyzing ethylene to butene have been already reported. [235-237] It is known that the<br />

redox activity of Rh in RhCa-X Zeolite plays an important role on catalyzing ethylene<br />

dimerization. [238] Having distinct Ru-CUS available in the Ru-DEMOFs (i.e., different Ru n+ -<br />

species being potentially involved into the redox-process(es) of the reaction flow),
