General description

Copper(II) carbonate basic is naturally found in azurite and malachite. On heating, it undergoes decomposition to form copper(II) oxide, carbon dioxide and water. Due to its high initial discharge capacity, copper(II) carbonate (basic) is being considered as a promising candidate as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries.

Application

Copper(II) carbonate basic (Cupric carbonate basic, Copper(II) basic carbonate) may be used in the preparation of colloidal copper.
Copper(II) carbonate basic along with different ligands form an efficient catalytic system for ′on water′ β-borylation of Michael acceptors, alkenes and alkynes.
