Geminal-Atom Catalysis for Cross-Coupling.
Nature 2023;
622: 754-760
DOI:
10.1038/s41586-023-06529-z
Key words
cross-coupling - carbon nitride - heterogeneous catalyst
Significance
A heterogeneous copper catalyst supported on polymeric carbon nitride (Cug/PCN) catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of aryl halides with amines, alcohols, alkynes,
arenes, or thiols, resulting in the formation of the corresponding C–N, C–O, C–C or
C–S coupled products (eqs. 2-5).
Comment
Cug/PCN was prepared according to equation 1. Cug/PCN contains regularly spaced copper atom pairs, with a Cu–Cu distance of approximately
4 Å.
