title: Dual role of alkynyl halides in one-step synthesis of alkynyl epoxides.
abstract: It was demonstrated that alkynyl halides could serve as a source of Br+ and acetylide ions in the same transformation. This allowed for the efficient one-step preparation of alkynyl epoxides, important organic building blocks, from readily available starting materials.
