Robust Metal–Organic Framework Containing Benzoselenadiazole for Highly Efficient Aerobic Cross-dehydrogenative Coupling Reactions under Visible Light

Abstract

A zirconium(IV)-based UiO-topological metal-organic framework (UiO-68Se) containing benzoselenadiazole was synthesized by an approach of the mixed dicarboxylate struts, which show highly efficient and recycalable photocatalytic activity for aerobic cross-dehydrogenative coupling reactions between tertiary amines and various carbon nucleophiles under visible-light irradiation.
