Table1: Optimization of reaction conditions for the Csp-S coupling reaction TMS-acetylene and
substituted thiols using CuO-NPs
TMS + HS R1 TMS S R1
TMS-acetylene Substituted Thiophenol Alkynyl Sulfide
(a)
Reaction condition: TMS-acetylene (1.0 mmol), substituted thiophenols (0.500 mmol),
K2CO3 (0.200 mmol), CuO-NPs (0.200 mmol), DMSO (1.5ml)

Table 2: Scope of Csp-S coupling reaction between TMS-acetylene and substituted thiols
S S S S
Initially we want to form acetylide in the reaction mixtures for that reason we follows
strategies, first we add TMS-acetylene, K2CO3, CuO-NPs and DMSO .latter thiophenols
was add after 1.5 hrs in the reaction mixtures. Based on this finding we optimized the
reaction conditions starting with green catalyst CuO-NPs.
Conclusion:
In summary, we analyzed that inexpensive, efficient and eco-friendly CuO-NPs catalyzes the
oxidative Csp-S cross-dehydrogenative coupling of terminal alkynes and thiophenols to
developed alkynyl sulfides. This is simple and straightforward as well as atom economic
strategies is widely applicable to wide range of alkynes and thiols and is compatible with a
variety of functional groups on the both alkynes and thiols partners. This strategy represents a
new methodology for highly selective synthesis of alkynyl sulfides
