Abstract

N, N′-aryl-and N, N′-alkyl-buta-1, 3-diyne-1, 4-ditosylamides have been synthesized for the first time, in good to excellent yields, by copper-catalyzed dimerization of the corresponding N-aryl or N-alkyl tosylynamides. Negishi coupling of N-ethynylzinc tosylamides derivatives with (hetero) aryl iodides in the presence of Pd2dba3 and triphenylphosphine affords N-aryl and N-alkyl arylynamides in yields of up to 90%. ...
