C-C bond formationO 0282 Copper-Catalyzed Oxidative Homo-coupling of Terminal Acetylenes on Alumina

Assisted by Microwave Irradiation. — Homo-coupling of terminal acetylenes can beeffectively performed under microwaves and solvent-free conditions using CuI as cat-alyst. Using CuCl or CuCl2 as catalyst gives similar results. — (SHARIFI*, A.;MIRZAEI, M.; NAIMI-JAMAL*, M. R.; J. Chem. Res., Synop. 2002, 12, 628-630;Chem. Chem. Eng. Res. Cent., Tehran, Iran; Eng.) — M.
