Abstract

AbstractArylalkynoic acids, glyoxylic acid, and amines were reacted in the absence of transition metal catalysts to produce the corresponding arylpropargyl amines via double decarboxylation. In addition to cyclic secondary amines, non‐cyclic secondary amines also reacted with various substituted arylalkynoic acids and glyoxylic acid to afford the desired products in good yields. It was revealed that the carboxylic acid functionality was important for increasing the product yield.
