A novel Cu(i)-based coordination polymer for efficient photocatalytic oxidation of C(sp3)–H bonds†
Abstract
A novel coordination polymer CuCl-Pyhc was successfully synthesized, which can catalyze efficient and selective oxidation of C(sp3)–H bonds under mild conditions, exhibiting exceptional stability and remarkable recyclability. Furthermore, CuCl-Pyhc can mimic natural monooxygenases and activate oxygen into singlet oxygen (1O2).
