A high-activity cobalt-based MOF catalyst for [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition of diynes and alkynes: insights into alkyne affinity and selectivity control

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

[2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition. As efficient cooperative catalyst for such reactions, Co-MOF-1, shows great sustainability and efficiency. This new catalytic system can lead to the generation of a series of structurally diverse benzenes in good to excellent yields (up to 95%).
