Significance

Copper iodine nanoparticles prepared by a sodium citrate assisted hydrothermal method catalyzed the cross-coupling reactions of chlorobenzenes 1 and various N- and O-nucleophiles 2 and 4 to give the corresponding products 3 (25 examples) and 5 (16 examples), respectively, in up to 99% yield.
