Abstract:A heterogeneous Cu(II)-AOFs catalyst, Cu(II) supported on amidoxime fibers (AOFs), is successfully applied to the cross-dehydrogenative coupling of aromatic terminal alkynes and N,N-dimethylanilines to form propargylamines. The Cu(II)-AOFs catalyst shows high catalytic activity with the yields of the corresponding propargylamines reaching 90% at 70 °C for 4 h without the protection of an inert gas. The Cu(II)-AOFs coordinate with the imine ion intermediate generated during the reaction, making the coupling fac… Show more
