Cu 2 (BDC) 2 (BPY) as excellent catalyst in synthesis of Pyrazine derivatives

Pyrazine, which is one of the well-known and important classes of heterocyclic compounds, exhibits extraordinary biological and pharmaceutical properties. In recent years, Pyrazines have received a lot of attention because of their applications in the field of luminescent materials. We used Metal-Organic Frameworks [Cu2(BDC)2(BPY)] for synthesis of Pyrazines in good yields. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) consist of coordination bonds between transition-metal cations and multidentate organic linkers.
