Abstract
Copper-based metal–organic-frameworks with open metal sites have received increasing research interest as heterogeneous catalysts for various organic transformations. A copper-based metal organic framework (1) built with L-NO2 ligand (L-NO2 = 4,4′-dicarboxy-4″-nitrotriphenylamine) was selected for catalyzing aerobic homocoupling of arylboronic acid toward biaryl products given its structural robustness and 1-D channels lined with rich open metal sites. The experimental results show that MOF (1) exhibits pronounced size selectivity over arylboronic acid molecules, which is only effective for short arylboronic acid molecules (e.g. phenylboronic acid, p-methylphenylboronic acid and p-fluorophenylboronic acid), giving the corresponding biaryl products in good yields. Moreover, MOF (1) also demonstrates a good recyclability which only shows a small decay in the catalytic performance after five repeated runs.
