  4. Abstract:
  5. Cu2O nanocubes, octahedra, spheres and truncated rhombic dodecahedral were prepared and their structural, morphological, and electronic properties were investigated by X-ray diffraction analysis, X-ray absorption near edge structure, scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope and X-ray absorption near edge structure. Cu2O nanocrystals were successfully employed to catalyze the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction for the synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted triazoles. Cu2O nanocubes and octahedral showed the superior catalytic performance in the cycloaddition reaction. These results reveal that crystal-plane engineering of oxide catalysts is a useful strategy for developing efficient catalysts for organic reaction
