Photocatalysis　represents　a　promising　pathway　for　the　direct　conversion　of　solar　energy　to　valuable　chemical　energy.　Metal-organic　frameworks　(MOFs),　which　are　constructed　from　metal/metal　clusters　interconnected　with　organic　ligands,　have　recently　emerged　as　a　promising　candidate　in　this　field.　Among　various　MOFs,　Ti-　and　Zr-based　MOFs　have　gained　intensive　interest　in　photocatalysis　due　to　their　relation　to　the　commonly　used　photocatalyst　(TiO2)　and　high　stability.　In　this　review,　we　summarized　the　recent　applications　of　Ti-　and　Zr-based　MOFs　in　solar　fuel　production,　including　water　reduction　and　oxidation,　CO2　reduction　and　organics　syntheses.　Strategies　to　improve　the　MOF-based　photocatalysis　via　improving　their　light　absorption　and　facilitate　the　charge　separation　were　also　demonstrated.　Finally,　opportunities　and　challenges　facing　the　MOFs-based　photocatalysis,　especially　the　Ti-　and　Zr　containing　MOFs　were　addressed.　©　2017　SIOC,　CAS,　Shanghai　&　WILEY-VCH　Verlag　GmbH　&　Co.　KGaA,　Weinheim
