Abstract

The catalytic activity and stability of sulfonic-based UiO-66(Zr) materials were tested in the Friedel-Crafts acylation of anisole with acetic anhydride. The materials were prepared using microwave-assisted synthesis, producing microporous materials with remarkable crystallinity and physicochemical features as acid catalysts. Different ratios between both organic ligands, terephthalic acid (H2BDC) and monosodium 2-sulfoterephthalic acid (H2BDC-SO3Na), were used for the synthesis to modulate the sulfonic content. The sulfonic-based UiO-66(Zr) material synthesized with a H2BDC/H2BDC-SO3Na molar ratio of 40/60 exhibited the best catalytic performance in the acidic-catalyzed Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction. This ratio balanced the number of sulfonic acid sites and their accessibility within the UiO-66 microporous structure. The catalytic performance of this material increased remarkably at 200 degrees C, outperforming reference acids and commercial heterogeneous catalysts such as Nafion-SAC-13 and Amberlyst-70. Additionally, the best sulfonic-based UiO-66(Zr) material proved to be stable in four successive reaction cycles, maintaining both its catalytic activity and its structural integrity.

Impact and social visibility

From the perspective of influence or social adoption, and based on metrics associated with mentions and interactions provided by agencies specializing in calculating the so-called "Alternative or Social Metrics," we can highlight as of 2025-12-25:

  • The use, from an academic perspective evidenced by the Altmetric agency indicator referring to aggregations made by the personal bibliographic manager Mendeley, gives us a total of: 12.
  • The use of this contribution in bookmarks, code forks, additions to favorite lists for recurrent reading, as well as general views, indicates that someone is using the publication as a basis for their current work. This may be a notable indicator of future more formal and academic citations. This claim is supported by the result of the "Capture" indicator, which yields a total of: 7 (PlumX).

With a more dissemination-oriented intent and targeting more general audiences, we can observe other more global scores such as:

  • The Total Score from Altmetric: 1.
  • The number of mentions on the social network X (formerly Twitter): 1 (Altmetric).

It is essential to present evidence supporting full alignment with institutional principles and guidelines on Open Science and the Conservation and Dissemination of Intellectual Heritage. A clear example of this is:

  • The work has been submitted to a journal whose editorial policy allows open Open Access publication.
