Aug 11, 2021 at 20:18 comment added Tyrone @OscarRandal-Williams Right. In fact J. Lin has shown that any noncontractractible finite H-space with associative mod 2 homology ring has its first nonvanishing homotopy group in degree $1,3$ or $7$. (so replacing 'Lie group' with 'topological group' yields nothing).
Aug 11, 2021 at 19:07 comment added Oscar Randal-Williams I see: because a simply-connected compact Lie group has $\pi_3$ nontrivial, right?
Aug 11, 2021 at 18:59 comment added Tyrone ...Unless you take $j=0$, in which case you have the Hopf fibrations missing from the question.
Aug 11, 2021 at 18:52 comment added Tyrone @OscarRandal-Williams you can't make that work with the $j\neq 1,3,7$ clause.
