Abstract

Inside-out core-shell architectures (Cu2O@Cu) with a Cu2O core and a Cu shell, which are in contrast to the normally reported Cu2O-outside structure (Cu@Cu2O), were fabricated. This strategy can also be applied to construct square and hexapod Cu2O@Cu. The obtained Cu2O@Cu composite exhibits excellent catalytic activity for the Sonogashira coupling reactions.
