Abstract

Two original macrocyclic silver(I)(pyridine-containing ligand) complexes [Ag(I)(Pc-L)] were synthesized and characterized. Their ability to catalyze the coupling among aldehydes, terminal alkynes and amines (A(3)-coupling) was demonstrated. The reaction could be performed under conventional as well as dielectric heating. The catalysts were effective in both cases, but dielectric heating allowed a lower catalyst loading and reduced ratio among reaction partners in shorter reaction times. The reaction scope was broad, including aryl/alkyl aldehydes, aryl/alkyl acetylenes and secondary aliphatic amines. Some unprecedented propargylamines have been prepared. The new catalytic system was also tested with more challenging coupling partners such as aniline and ketones.
