In this full article, detailed development of a catalytic decarbonylation of conjugated monoynones to synthesize disubstituted alkynes is described. The reaction scope and limitation has been thoroughly investigated, and a broad range of functional groups including heterocycles were compatible under the catalytic conditions. Mechanistic exploration via DFT calculations has also been executed. Through the computational study, a proposed catalytic mechanism has been carefully evaluated. These efforts are expected to serve as an important exploratory study for developing catalytic alkyne-transfer reactions via carbon-alkyne bond activation.
在这篇完整的文章中,描述了共轭单炔酮催化脱羰合成二取代炔烃的详细过程。对反应范围和局限性进行了全面研究,在催化条件下,包括杂环在内的多种官能团都具有兼容性。还通过密度泛函理论(DFT)计算进行了机理探索。通过计算研究,对提出的催化机理进行了仔细评估。这些努力有望成为通过碳 - 炔键活化开发催化炔烃转移反应的重要探索性研究。
