Abstract
A copper-catalyzed C(sp)-C(sp3) coupling reaction between terminal alkynes and alkylsilyl peroxides is reported. In the presence of a copper catalyst and 4-dimethylaminopyridine, the reaction smoothly affords a variety of internal alkynes by coupling alkylsilyl peroxides and terminal alkynes. Mechanistic studies suggest that the reaction proceeds via a radical mechanism, whereby the alkyl radicals are generated from the alkylsilyl peroxides. The present transformation represents a rare example of a radical-mediated C(sp)-C(sp3) coupling reaction of terminal alkynes.
