Key Points

The Cu(i)-NHC@Zn-MOF effectively catalyzes the carboxylation of terminal alkynes with carbon dioxide.
This catalyst operates efficiently at atmospheric pressure, enhancing its practicality for industrial applications.
Integration of the Cu(i)-NHC motif into the Zn-MOF framework contributes to its high catalytic performance.
The findings suggest that N-heterocyclic carbenes can improve carbon dioxide utilization in chemical processes.

Implication

Catalysis of carbon dioxide into useful compounds in metal-organic frameworks shows promise for sustainability and efficiency.

Abstract

A Cu( i )-NHC motif was integrated into a 3D Zn-MOF utilizing an imidazolium ligand. The resulting Cu( i )-NHC@Zn-MOF exhibited high efficiency in catalyzing the carboxylation of terminal alkynes with carbon dioxide at atmospheric pressure.
