Selective linear triene formation from different alkynes using Zr/Cu system.
Selective synthesis of linear trienes from three different alkynes was achieved in one-pot procedure using the Zr/Cu system. Zirconacyclopentadiene prepared from two different alkynes such as an alkyl-substituted alkyne and an aryl-substituted alkyne reacted with NCS gave chlorodienylzirconocene. It reacted with the third alkyne with electron-withdrawing groups in the presence of CuCl to afford the corresponding linear triene.
