COPPER (I) ASSISTED CATALYST DIMERISATION OF TERMINAL ALKYNES AND THEIR ANTIBACTERIAL STUDIES

Terminal alkynes undergo oxidative - coupling smo othly in the presence of the Cu(I) Cl catalyti c system. The reaction gives 1, 3 - diynes in excellent yields under mild conditions. Structures of the all synthesized compounds were established bas ed on TLC, FT - IR, 1 H NMR, and MASS spectral data. All the synthesized compounds were examined
