Among the various porous materials examined for the nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR), UiO-66, a Zr-based MOF, stands out owing to its exceptional robustness, high BET surface area, tunable porosity and strong Lewis acidity at the Zr4+ nodes, making it a highly versatile platform for both photocatalytic and electrocatalytic NH3 production. This review aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of UiO-66-based materials for photocatalytic (P-NRR) and electrocatalytic (E-NRR) nitrogen reduction, while providing a detailed account of the key parameters governing NRR, including its thermodynamics and kinetics, the challenges of activating the inert N\u2261N bond, and competing hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Several synthesis methods for UiO-66 are critically discussed with respect to how each approach influences material properties, including crystallinity, surface area, stability, and porosity. Targeted modification strategies, such as metal doping, linker functionalization, defect engineering, and composite formation, are systematically explored, each aimed at introducing suitable active sites and establishing a favorable environment for N2 adsorption and activation across both photocatalytic and electrocatalytic systems. P-NRR and E-NRR performances are critically analyzed, with due consideration given to NH3 detection methods, including colorimetric assays, ion chromatography, and 1H NMR spectroscopy, which are essential for reliable quantification. Finally, current challenges and future directions are outlined to guide the rational design of efficient, selective, and robust UiO-66-based catalysts for sustainable NH3 synthesis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1021\/acsorginorgau.6c00042","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,11]],"date-time":"2026-08-11T03:02:17Z","timestamp":1786417337000},"page":"512-538","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Multifunctional\nUiO-66 MOFs in Photocatalytic and\nElectrocatalytic Nitrogen Reduction: A New Horizon in Green Ammonia\nSynthesis"],"prefix":"10.1021","volume":"6","author":[{"given":"Arup Anurup","family":"Dash","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Siksha \u2018O\u2019 Anusandhan (Deemed to be University) , , ,","place":["Bhubaneswar, India, 751030"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Priyanka","family":"Priyadarshini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Siksha \u2018O\u2019 Anusandhan (Deemed to be University) , , ,","place":["Bhubaneswar, India, 751030"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Diptirani","family":"Behera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Siksha \u2018O\u2019 Anusandhan (Deemed to be University) , , ,","place":["Bhubaneswar, India, 751030"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7807-5561","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Kulamani","family":"Parida","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Siksha \u2018O\u2019 Anusandhan (Deemed to be University) , , ,","place":["Bhubaneswar, India, 751030"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"316","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,10]]},"reference":[{"issue":"23","key":"2026100709064423000_cit1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"9003","DOI":"10.1039\/D2GC03174D","article-title":"A Review on Catalysts for Electrocatalytic and Photocatalytic Reduction\nof N2 to Ammonia","volume":"24","author":"Lin","year":"2022","journal-title":"Green Chem."},{"issue":"1","key":"2026100709064423000_cit2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"131","DOI":"10.1021\/acs.inorgchem.1c02504","article-title":"Robust Photoelectrochemical\nRoute for the Ambient Fixation of Dinitrogen into Ammonia over a Nanojunction\nAssembled from Ceria and an Iron Boride\/Phosphide Cocatalyst","volume":"61","author":"Sultana","year":"2022","journal-title":"Inorg.
