Key Points

The research aims to develop a sustainable method for attaching ureas to quinoline derivatives using hierarchical MOF microspheres with copper catalysts.
Utilized hierarchical metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) containing copper as catalysts.
Focused on the functionalization of quinoline N-oxides.
Analyzed the efficiency and sustainability of the reaction process.
Demonstrated successful urea installation onto quinoline derivatives.
Showed improved reaction efficiency compared to traditional homogeneous methods.
Highlighted the potential for more sustainable practices in drug development.

Abstract

Ureas are privileged scaffolds across drug discovery and materials science, yet their installation onto complex pharmacophores, such as quinoline derivatives, remains challenging due to the inherent limitations of conventional homogeneous...
