A novel Cu-catalyzed aerobic oxidative N-incorporation into aliphatic terminal alkynes for the synthesis of alkenyl nitriles has been reported. The usage of inexpensive copper catalyst, O2as the sole oxidant, broad substrate scope as well as the feasibility for “the late-stage modification” make this protocol very promising.

Herein, we report an efficient method for the synthesis of (Z)-β-halovinyl ketones through a one-pot Sonogashira coupling and hydrohalogenation reaction promoted by palladium-copper catalyst and Brønsted acid. The ynone intermediates are generated in situ from readily available acid chlorides and terminal alkynes at room temperature, which are directly converted to (Z)-β-halovinyl ketones by treating with triflic acid. This method avoids the use of an external halogen source and features broad substrate scope, high yield, and good to excellent stereoselectivity.

<a></a><a>We demonstrated unprecedentedly that Co complexes can catalyze hydrogermylation of alkynes. Subsequently, a selective, accessible method was developed to synthesize E-(β)-vinyl(trialkyl)germanes from various terminal alkynes with high yields. As shown on multiple examples, the developed method demonstrates broad functional group tolerance and practical utility for late-stage hydrogermylation of drugs and natural products. The method is compatible with alkynes bearing both aryl and alkyl substituents, providing unrivaled selectivity for previously challenging 1° alkyl-substituted alkynes. Moreover, the catalyst used in this method, Co<sub>2</sub>(CO)<sub>8</sub>, is a cheap and commercially available reagent. Conducted mechanistic studies supported syn-addition of Bu<sub>3</sub>GeH to an alkyne</a> π-complex.

: The functionalization of Csp2-H bond of heteroarene with an alkyne represents one of the most attractive procedures for the late-stage functionalization of the aromatic core due to the structural characteristics and synthetic versatility given by a triple carbon-carbon bond. The aim of this review is to cover the most significant results reported in the literature regarding the synthesis of alkynyl-substituted five-membered heteroarenes by selective direct Csp2-H alkynylation with 1-haloalkynes and analogs, or by cross-dehydrogenative alkynylation (CDA) with terminal alkynes, without making use of directing groups.

A highly efficient cobalt-catalyzed homocoupling of terminal alkynes with di-tert-butyldiaziridinone as the oxidant has been developed. The protocol tolerates a wide array of terminal alkynes, both activated and unactivated alkynes, to afford their corresponding conjugated 1,3-diynes. The mild reaction conditions further allow late-stage homocoupling of alkynes derived from complex natural products.

A general and selective syn-carboxylation-trifluoromethylation across the triple bond of terminal alkynes is developed by virtue of a reactive Cu(iii)–CF3 complex, which produces a broad range of biologically active trifluoromethylated enol esters with excellent regio- and stereoselectivity.
