A novel colloidal catalyst was developed through the encapsulation of cuprous oxide nanoparticles in polydiacetylene micelles. The Cu-based catalyst was applied to the Huisgen cycloaddition reaction in fully aqueous medium. The process neither requires heating nor controlled atmosphere and the catalyst can be recycled in subsequent reactions without any loss of activity.
