Abstract
Synthesis of terminal allenes via a copper-catalyzed decarboxylative coupling reaction was developed. Aryl alkynyl carboxylic acid, paraformaldehyde, and dicyclohexylamine were reacted with CuI (20 mol %) in diglyme at 100 °C for 2 h to produce the terminal allene in moderate to good yields. The method showed good functional group tolerance.
