| Abstract: | A simple, yet efficient system for PdCl2/CuI to catalyze the homo‐coupling reactions of various terminal alkynes has been developed using 3‐(diphenylphosphino)propanoic acid as ligand in the presence of oxygen. The alkynes, including aromatic, heteroaromatic and aliphatic alkynes, were transformed at room temperature into the corresponding 1,3‐diynes in moderate to excellent yields. The turnover number was up to 1.04 × 103. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. |
