Abstract
Following the need for a straightforward and efficient catalyst for the C-O coupling reaction, we proposed Cu2O/ZnO as a new heterogeneous catalyst candidate. We developed a simple green procedure for O-arylation of various phenols from differently substituted aryl halides (X = I, Br, Cl), that was not only solvent and ligand-free but also well-tolerated by various functional groups along with high-yield corresponded products. In addition, the described method benefits from air stability and catalyst recyclability.
