Dual enabling photomediated Knoevenagel condensation and alkene perfluoroalkylation reactions by a photoresponsive cadmium–organic framework

A porous Cd-MOF can not only effectively photocatalyze the Knoevenagel condensation reaction as the first MOF-based catalyst, but also catalyze the atom transfer radical addition reaction of olefins and perfluoroalkyl iodides under blue LED light.
