title: First evidence for the use of organosilver compounds in Pd-catalyzed coupling reactions; a mechanistic rationale for the Pd/Ag-catalyzed enyne synthesis?
abstract: Silver acetylides have been prepared and used in Pd-catalyzed coupling reactions. Enynes have thus been obtained in good yields. This work demonstrates that organosilver compounds could enter the Pd catalytic cycle; it also supports the role of silver acetylides as intermediates in the new Pd/Ag-catalyzed coupling reaction.
