    Abstract: A mild method for the copper-catalyzed amination of aryl iodides is reported. This operationally simple C−N bond-forming protocol uses CuI as the catalyst and ethylene glycol as ligand in 2-propanol. A variety of functionalized aryl iodides as well as ...

    Abstract: Benzyl chlorides and bromides are shown to undergo copper-promoted coupling with a variety of terminal alkynes including, for the first time, electron-poor acetylenes such as methyl propiolate. The reaction permits easy access to a wide range of (...

    Abstract: An experimentally simple and inexpensive catalyst system was developed for the amidation of aryl halides by using 0.2−10 mol % of CuI, 5−20 mol % of a 1,2-diamine ligand, and K₃PO₄, K₂CO₃, or Cs₂CO₃ as base. Catalyst systems based on N,N‘-...
