Abstract
Herein, we disclose a visible-light-induced oxy-alkynylation of diazo compounds with ethynylbenziodoxolones. The efficient protocol provides a mild and metal-free methodology to synthesize propargylic esters in moderate to good yields. Notably, this metal-free carbene transfer reaction appears to involve an oxonium ylide intermediate, followed by intramolecular ligand exchange and reductive elimination.
