An amine-functionalized zirconium metal–organic framework (MOF) was used as a visible-light photocatalyst for selective aerobic oxygenation of various organic compounds including alcohols, olefins and cyclic alkanes, at high efficiency and high selectivity. This study shows the great potential for d...
