Abstract

A range of propargylamines was synthesized via the metal-free decarboxylative coupling of alkynyl carboxylic acids with amines and paraformaldehyde in water, using a continuous flow reaction system. Aryl- and alkyl-substituted propiolic acids were found to react with secondary amines in the presence of paraformaldehyde, at 140°C in water to give the desired propargylamines in good yield.
