Application
Copper(I) iodide can be used as a catalyst for:
- For arylation of pyrazole and derivatives by coupling arenediazonium species under mild and ligand-free conditions.
- Selective cross-coupling of dibromo alkenes and heteronucleophiles which leads to numerous building blocks such as 1-bromoenamides, ynamides, ketene N, N-acetals, 1-bromoenol ethers, ynol ethers, ketene O, O-acetals, and vinyl phosphonates.
- Stereospecific and the regioselective reaction of silacyclopropanes with carbonyl compounds.
Features and Benefits
- Low toxicity
- Mild reaction condition
- High purity ensures reproducibility and avoids cocatalysis by contaminants.
