title: Method for transforming alkynes into (E)-dibromoalkenes.
abstract: The highly stereoselective bromination of alkynes has been realized by using copper(II) bromide as both the reacting partner and the catalyst, offering a generally efficient synthesis of (E)-dibromoalkenes. The reaction conditions are exceptionally mild, and a wide range of functional groups are well tolerated.
