Octahedral and rod‐like γ ‐CuI nanocrystals have been fabricated by using a mild solution method in water, methanol and ethanol respectively. X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and field emission‐scanning electron microscopy (FE‐SEM) were used to characterize the product. The as‐synthesized CuI demonstrates higher activity for the Sonogashira cross‐coupling of 4‐iodoanisole and phenylacetylene.
