The invention discloses a
copper monatomic catalyst with stable N-heterocyclic
carbene as well as a preparation method and application of the
copper monatomic catalyst with stable N-heterocyclic
carbene. According to the method, construction of a porous
organic polymer carrier and anchoring of
metal monatomic active sites are innovatively combined, and the
copper monatomic catalyst with stable N-heterocyclic
carbene is prepared through a one-pot mechanical
grinding strategy. A
triazine compound, a
nitrogen-containing
heterocyclic compound, a
copper salt and alkali directly react under the assistance of no
solvent or a trace amount of
solvent, and the catalyst POP-n-NHC-CuX (n = I-IV, X = Cl, Br or I) is obtained through in-situ synchronous synthesis. In the obtained catalyst, copper atoms are stably anchored on a
polymer skeleton in a coordination bond form through an NHC ligand to form atomic-scale dispersed active sites. The catalyst can efficiently catalyze the
conversion reaction of CO2 and
propargyl alcohol and derivatives thereof under mild conditions, is suitable for synthesizing various high value-added chemicals including alpha-alkylene cyclic
carbonate, oxazolidinone and beta-oxypropyl
carbamate, and shows excellent
catalytic cycle stability and substrate universality.
