Abstract

The catalytic properties of the microporous metal-organic coordination polymer [Zn4(dmf)(ur)2(ndc)4] (dmf is N,N’-dimethylformamide, ur is urotropine, and ndc2- is 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylate) for the Knoevenagel reaction were studied. The reaction between aromatic aldehydes (benzaldehyde, α-naphthaldehyde, 4-biphenylaldehyde, and 1-pyrenaldehyde) and malononitrile was studied. The coordination polymer was shown to be a heterogeneous catalyst that makes it possible to achieve 95% yield in the reaction between benzaldehyde and malononitrile. The selectivity of the catalyst depends on the size of aldehydes used in the reaction.
