Abstract
AbstractA mild method for decarboxylative C−C bond formation between natural carboxylic acids and alkynes is reported. Activation of a very broad scope of carboxylic acids derived from renewable resources is achieved by esterification to N‐(acyloxy)phthalimides. The cross‐coupling with acetylenic sulfones proceeds under irradiation with green light (528 nm) in the presence of the organic photocatalyst eosin Y and provides a metal‐free, environmentally friendly and inexpensive alternative to known decarboxylative alkynylations.
