An improved procedure for the preparation of aryl- and hetarylacetylenes

Abstract

A number of relatively volatile acetylenes RC ≡ CH (R = aryl or hetaryl) have been prepared with high yields by heating a mixture of the corresponding alcohols RC ≡ CC(CH₃)₂OH and paraffin oil with small amounts of powdered potassium hydroxide in vacuum. The alcohols were obtained by Pd/Cu-catalyzed cross coupling of aryl or hetaryl halides RX (X = Br, in one case I) with the commercially available HC ≡ CC(CH₃)₂OH.
