Allylic phosphates and allylic phosphinates as electrophiles in efficient silylcupration reactions of acetylenes.
Atom-efficient stoichiometric silylcupration reactions of acetylenes followed by electrophilic trapping of the intermediate vinylcopper species with allylic phosphates have been developed. The reaction sequence was also carried out with the use of a catalytic amount of CuCN employing of both allylic phosphates and allylic phosphinates as electrophiles. The methods developed provide an easy access to silylated 1,4-diene systems.
