Abstract
Pd(pp2) (O3SCF3)2 (pp2 = bis(2-diphenylphosphinoethyl)phenylphosphine) catalyses the transformation of non-activated terminal alkynes into acetals. The reaction proceeds fast, without the addition of heat and in quantitative yield. σ-Alkynyl-palladium complexes have been identified as intermediates.
