The catalytic potential of copper(I)-exchanged zeolites was evaluated in the Ullmann-type synthesis of diaryl ethers. Among four investigated zeolites (i.e., USY, MOR, β, and ZSM5), Cu(I)-USY was the best catalyst and proved efficient under ligand-free conditions in toluene at 120 °C. Cu(I)-USY was also easy to recover and was recyclable up to five times without significant loss of activity.

[reaction: see text] CuI-exchanged solids based on zeolite materials were investigated for the first time as catalysts in organic synthesis. The catalytic potential of these materials was evaluated in the Huisgen [3 + 2]-cycloaddition. Five CuI-exchanged zeolites were examined and CuI-USY proved to be a novel and efficient heterogeneous ligand-free catalyst for this "click chemistry"-type transformation.
