(15) Typical Experimental Procedure
To NMP (2 mL) were added aryl halide (1 mmol) and
terminal alkyne (1 mmol), then cobalt nanoparticles (0.03
mmol, 3 mol%), Ph3P (0.1 mmol, 10 mol%), CuI (0.02
mmol, 2 mol%), and K2CO3 (1.5 mmol) were added in turn.
The mixture was heated at 120 °C (for aromatic alkyne) or
80 °C (for aliphatic alkyne) with stirring under a nitrogen
atmosphere for the appropriate time (see Table 1, monitored
by TLC) until the reaction was complete, then centrifuged.
The solution was separated and the precipitate was washed
with Et2O (3 × 5 mL). The solutions were combined and
washed with H2O, dried over anhyd Na2SO4, and purified by
column chromatography on SiO2 with hexane–EtOAc
(100:1) as eluent to yield the products. The precipitate was
further washed sufficiently with MeOH and Et2O, then
dried, and the cobalt nanoparticles were recovered. After
being reused three times, the yield of the product did not
obviously decrease.
