31. 19F NMR due to non-overlapping resonances of compounds 1 (-113.7 ppm), 2 (-112.9 ppm), and 3 (-108.9 ppm) (Table 1). However, we have also screened the effect of bases and concentrations on the CuI-promoted cycloaddition between phenylacetylene and benzyl azide, that is, non electron-effect biased substrates, and the results appeared in correlation with the trends observed in Table 1.

33. It would be of interest to point out that in the absence of the azide (ratio: alkyne/DMAP/CuI-1.0/1.0/0.5), DMAP promoted a clean formation of the diynes. Although the rates of this transformation are fairly slow (20 h), as compared to some literature examples, fewer reagents as well as conditions that do not require a strong oxidant and/or strong electrophile might prove useful in certain cases.
