Cu3(BTC)2 (BTC: 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate) as a heterogeneous catalyst in the presence of cesium carbonate as a base is reported for the borylation of α,β-conjugated enones by bis(pinacolato)diboron (B2pin2). According to the hot-filtration test, Cu3(BTC)2 is acting as a heterogeneous catalyst. Further, Cu3(BTC)2 exhibits a wide substrate scope and can be reused in consecutive runs, maintaining a crystal structure as evidenced by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). A suitable mechanism is also proposed for this transformation using Cu3(BTC)2 as catalyst.
