Journal ArticleDOI
The Discovery of Novel Reactivity in the Development of C−C Bond-Forming Reactions: In Situ Generation of Zinc Acetylides with ZnII/R3N
TL;DR: The catalytic generation of transition-metal metalloenolates and alkynilides under conditions compatible with electrophilic reaction partners provides fresh avenues for the development of new efficient asymmetric processes leading to C-C bond formation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Catalytic in Situ Generation of Zn(II)-Alkynilides under Mild Conditions: A Novel CN Addition Process Utilizing Terminal Acetylenes
Journal ArticleDOI
First synthesis of optically pure propargylic N-hydroxylamines by direct, highly diastereoselective addition of terminal alkynes to nitrones.
Journal ArticleDOI
Infrared spectroscopic investigations on the metallation of terminal alkynes by Zn(OTf)2.
TL;DR: An IR study of terminal acetylenes and Zn(OTf)(2) in the presence of amine bases provides evidence that is consistent with the generation of Zn-acetylides.
Journal ArticleDOI
ZnCl2-mediated stereoselective addition of terminal alkynes to D-(+)-mannofuranosyl nitrones.
TL;DR: An optimized process for the addition of terminal alkynes to chiral nitrones using ZnCl2 and NEt3 in toluene is reported, resulting in good to excellent yield and high diastereoselectivity.
