A one-step, regioselective synthesis of annelated symmetric and asymmetric 3,3'-disubstituted 2,2'-bipyridines by cobalt(I)-catalyzed [2+2+2] cycloadditions between 5-hexynenitrile and 1,3-diynes is described. In the symmetric case, the total regioselectivity of the first cycloaddition is ensured electronically by the conjugation of the

The Cu(I) -catalyzed 1,3-dipolar azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) has arisen as one of the most useful chemical transformations for introducing complexity onto surfaces and materials owing to its functional-group tolerance and high yield. However, methods for monitoring such reactions in situ
