Abstract
The precise design of catalytic metal centers with multiple chemical states to facilitate sophisticated reactions involving multimolecular activation is highly desirable but challenging. Herein, we report an ordered macroporous catalyst with heterovalent metal pair (HMP) sites comprising CuII-CuI on the basis of a microporous metal-organic framework (MOF) system. This macroporous HMP catalyst with proximity heterovalent dual copper sites, whose distance is controlled to ∼2.6 Å, on macropore surface exhibits a co-activation behavior of ethanol at CuII and alkyne at CuI, and avoids microporous restriction, thereby promoting additive-free alkyne hydroboration reaction. The desired yield enhances dramatically compared with the pristine MOF and ordered macroporous MOF both with solely isovalent CuII-CuII sites. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the Cu-HMP sites can stabilize the Bpin-CuII-CuI-alkyne intermediate and facilitate C-B bond formation, resulting in a smooth alkyne hydroboration process. This work provides new perspectives to design multimolecular activation catalysts for sophisticated matter transformations.

Abstract
The hydroboration of alkynes with bis(pinacolato)diboron is a useful method for the synthesis of vinyl boronate esters, which are essential intermediates in organic syntheses. Copper catalysts have been used extensively in these reactions. However, previously reported Cu-catalyst systems inevitably require additives and elevated temperatures. Herein, we report, for the first time, a simple and efficient hydroboration of alkynes under additive-free and mild reaction conditions (i.e., at a temperature of 30 °C) using a copper nitride nanocube (Cu3N NC) catalyst. A wide range of alkynes can be transformed into their corresponding boronate esters. Cu3N NCs are also applicable in the hydroboration of alkynes with tetrahydroxydiboron to synthesize vinyl boronic acids. Moreover, the Cu3N NCs were easily separated by simple filtration and could be reused several times without any loss of their original activity. Hence, these highly active and reusable Cu3N NC catalysts offer an environmentally friendly route for the efficient production of vinyl boronates.

Abstract
Copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) with a clean surface supported on carbon nanofibers (CNFs) in one-pot were prepared by simple solid-state grinding and aging followed by thermal treatment, yielding CuO nanoparticles with high (23.8 wt%) and uniform CuO loading in the absence of surfactants and solvent. The CuO NPs on CNFs (CuO/CNF) showed excellent catalytic activity in transforming a wide variety of alkynes into alkenyl boronates using B2Pin2 as a boron source in the absence of ligand and additives with high regioselectivity under mild conditions. Moreover, the present CuO/CNF catalyst was recyclable and possesses excellent chemoselectivity. The developed green synthetic approach is expected to offer exciting opportunities for designing monometallic or bimetallic nanoparticle catalysts on different supports applied in heterogeneous catalysis.
