20. On the basis of the kinetic observation of initial reaction rates, the reactivity of water is 2 orders of magnitude lower than that of amine. See Supporting Information for the comparison.
21. Under the same conditions, treatment of methanesulfonyl azide with phenylacetylene gave a meager 19% yield of the desired amide.

26. While it was observed that copper acetylide forms during the early stages of the reaction, subject of separately prepared phenylethynylcopper(I) to the reaction mixture of sulfonyl azide and water did not produce any amide products.
