Abstract:Five-and six-membered heterocycles containing nitrogen or oxygen have been considered as privileged scaffolds in organic chemistry and the chemical industry because of their usage in high-value commodities. Herein, we report a two-dimensional (2D) Cu(II)-based MOF catalyst, IITKGP-40, via the strategic employment of ample Lewis acid−base bifunctional sites (open metal nodes and free pyrazine moieties) along the pore wall. IITKGP-40 could convert toxic CO 2 to cyclic carbonates in an atom-economical manner unde… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
