In recent times, carbon dioxide fixation has received much attention for its potential application as an abundant C1 source and a range of important fine chemicals can be manufactured via this fixation. Here, a copper nanoparticle-decorated porous organic polymer-based (Cu-NPs@TzTa-POP) material was prepared by a simple in situ process. The catalyst was characterized by various techniques such as UV-vis spectra, FTIR spectra, HR-TEM, PXRD, N2 adsorption-desorption, TG-DTA, XPS, and AAS analysis. The synthesized heterogeneous catalyst showed excellent activity in an atmospheric carbon dioxide fixation reaction to produce N-methylated products from aromatic/heterocyclic amines in the presence of polymethyl-hydrosiloxane (PMHS) as the reducing agent at 80 °C within 12 h of the reaction. Through this catalytic N-methylation reaction, we obtained 98% yield of the product with turnover frequency ranging from 18 to 42 h-1. The catalyst is also very stable for the formation of primary carbamates from alcohols using the eco-friendly carbonylating agent, urea. Diverse alcohols (such as benzylic alcohols, phenols, heterocyclic alcohols, as well as aliphatic alcohols) showed much acceptance to this catalytic reaction and produced moderate to excellent yields of the respective carbamate products under ambient reaction conditions. Moreover, Cu-NPs@TzTa-POP is effortlessly recyclable and reusable without the extensive loss of active copper metal centres for many catalytic rounds (up to six catalytic rounds were examined).
