Abstract
An intriguing new Wacker-type oxidation of alkynes catalyzed by PdBr(2) and CuBr(2) is described, which opens an efficient access to 1,2-diketones using molecular oxygen. Under the optimized conditions, a variety of alkynes, including diarylalkynes, arylalkylalkynes, and dialkylalkynes, were compatible substrates in this transformation. The mechanism of this reaction was preliminarily investigated by control experiments.Entities:
