A porous metal-organic framework containing multiple active Cu2+ sites for highly efficient cross dehydrogenative coupling reaction

摘要

A novel 3D porous metal-organic framework was constructed from imidazole carboxylate linkers and copper(II) nodes, which in situ generates multiple active Cu-II sites in the nanosized channel walls for highly efficient cross dehydrogenative coupling reaction between 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives and nitroalkanes that are superior to the simple copper salts.
