[摘要]:A Cu-catalyzed method for coupling alpha-substituted-alpha-diazoesters with terminal alkynes to give substituted allenoates is described. Key to the development of a selective method was the recognition that an adventitous base catalyzes the isomerization to form the allenoate product. A plausible mechanism is proposed, based in part on evidence against a mechanism that involves a Cu(I)-acetylide as a low-valent intermediate. |
