The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) has, in recent years, attracted great interest from scientists because of its prime role in a number of renewable energy technologies. It is one of the reactions that occurs during hydrogen production through water splitting, is used in rechargeable metal-air batteries, and plays a fundamental role in regenerative fuel cells. Therefore, there is an emerging need to develop new, active, stable, and cost-effective materials for OER. This review presents the latest research on various groups of materials, showing their potential to be used as OER electrocatalysts, as well as their shortcomings. Particular attention has been paid to metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and their derivatives, as those materials offer coordinatively unsaturated sites, high density of transition metals, adjustable pore size, developed surface area, and the possibility to be modified and combined with other materials.
近年来，析氧反应（OER）因其在多种可再生能源技术中的关键作用而备受科学家关注。它是通过水分解制氢过程中发生的反应之一，用于可充电金属空气电池，并在再生燃料电池中发挥着重要作用。因此，迫切需要开发新型、活性高、稳定性好且成本效益高的析氧反应材料。本文综述了各类材料的最新研究进展，展示了它们作为析氧反应电催化剂的潜力以及存在的不足。特别关注了金属有机框架材料（MOFs）及其衍生物，因为这些材料具有配位不饱和位点、高密度的过渡金属、可调孔径、发达的表面积以及可与其他材料进行改性和复合的可能性。
