Cu(<scp>i</scp>)-Doped carbon quantum dots with zigzag edge structures for highly efficient catalysis of azide–alkyne cycloadditions

Abstract

Cu(<sc>i</sc>)-CQDs with zigzag-shaped edges were prepared and used for a highly efficient catalysis of the Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition that was made possible owing to their rapid release of Cu(<sc>i</sc>).
