Abstract
Abstract Copper nanoparticles on titania effectively catalyse the oxidative homocoupling of terminal alkynes in the presence of piperidine as a base in tetrahydrofuran (THF) or under solvent-free conditions. A wide range of diynes have been synthesised in high yields using low catalyst loading (1 mol-% Cu). The copper catalyst (mainly as Cu 2 O) has been characterised by different means, is easy to prepare, can be reutilised several times, ...
