Abstract: We report the cross-coupling of n-hexanol and aryl iodides using Cu(I) catalysis under microwave reaction conditions. The aryl ethers were obtained in good yield. The use of 1,10-phenanthroline as the ligand was found effective in these reactions.

Keywords: Cu-catalyzed cross-coupling, microwave-assisted reaction, arylether
