Climate change caused by the increasing emission of CO₂ to the atmosphere has become a global concern. To ameliorate this issue, converting CO₂ into valuable chemicals is highly desirable, enabling a sustainable low-carbon future. To this end, developing efficient catalytic systems for CO₂ conversion has sparked intense interests from both academia and industry. Taking advantage of their highly porous structures and unique properties, metal−organic frameworks (MOFs) have shown great potential as heterogeneous catalysts for CO₂ conversion. Various transformations involving CO₂ have been accomplished over MOFs-based materials. Here we provide a comprehensive and up-to-date review on recent advances of heterogeneous CO₂ thermocatalysis using MOFs, highlighting relationships between structures and properties. Special attention is given to the design strategies for improving the catalytic performance of MOFs. Avenues available to enrich the catalytic active sites in MOF structures are stressed and their respective impacts on CO₂ conversion efficiency are presented. The synergistic effects between each active site within the structure of MOFs and derivatives are discussed. In the end, future perspectives and challenges in CO₂ conversion by heterogeneous catalysis with MOFs are described.
