title: Homochiral metal-organic frameworks with enantiopure proline units for the catalytic synthesis of β-lactams.
abstract: Two enantiopure organic ligands integrating flexible proline units and rigid isophthalate units have been rationally designed and employed for the construction of four homochiral porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), respectively. One pair of these MOFs is used as heterogeneous catalysts to construct β-lactam derivatives by oxidative coupling reactions.
