Abstract

The incredible bulk: A highly C-center-selective alkynylation of nonactivated alkyl halides with the corresponding Grignard reagents is achieved by using the iron-phosphine complex 1. Primary and secondary alkyl iodides, bromides, and chlorides take part in the reaction to give the substituted alkynes in good to excellent yields. Sequential cyclization/cross-coupling reactions are also demonstrated.
