Hydroxyl groups were successfully grafted onto NI-I2-MIL-53(A1), and imine groups were formed.Importantly, these hydroxyl and imine groups of the resulting NH2-MIL-53(A1)-SA can be used as the anchoringgroup to stabilise Au^3+ ions and Au^0 nanoparticles(NPs). By doing this, Au^3+ ions and Au^0 NPs were successfully en-capsulated in the cages of NH2-MIL-53(A1) by a simple impregnation method. The resulting gold functionalizedNH2-MIL-53(AI) showed good catalytic activities in the one-pot synthesis of structurally divergent propargylaminesby three-component coupling reactions of aldehydes, amines and alkynes. Various aromatic/aliphatic aldehydes, aro-matic alkynes, and piperidine were able to undergo three-component coupling on NH2-MIL-53(A1)-Au. In addition,the catalyst NH2-M/L-53(A/)-Au was recovered easily by centrifugation and reused up to four times. Thus, it can beused for the environmentally friendly synthesis ofpropargylamines.展开更多
