anti-Selective iodocyanation and dicyanation of various internal alkynes has been developed by means of a simple copper catalyst system. The selectivity of the products was switched by tuning the reaction conditions. Mechanistic studies have revealed all of the stepwise pathways including diiodide formation, selective monocyanation, and second cyanation processes.
