Abstract
With the recent development of metal oxide in various fields of science and technology, immensely nanotechnology has been contributing huge applications in the last decade, in various fields of synthetic chemistry, catalysis, and pharmaceutical industries. The utilization of metal oxide nanoparticles is superior for catalysis due to their ease of synthesis, high surface area for the reactants to react, recyclability, and eco-friendly. A large number of nanoparticles exhibit a significant role in various chemical transformations having highly expensive and biotic hazardous properties. The use of copper oxide nanoparticles as catalysts in reaction media facilitates a non-toxic, easily available. A large number of researchers have reported copper oxide nanoparticles as excellent, sustainable, and greener catalysts for the fabrication of many coupling reactions. This review (2015-till present) provides the copper oxide nanoparticles assisted C-C coupling reactions with greater catalytic performance and effective catalysis.
