Application

Propargyl alcohol has been used as a key starting material in the [4+2] cycloisomerization mediated synthesis of various phthalide derivatives.
It can also be used to synthesize:
  • A variety of regioselective furan-3-carboxamides by reacting with 3-oxo amides using Ag2CO3 as a promoter.
  • β-oxopropyl esters by reacting with carboxylic acids in the presence of (arene) (phosphine)ruthenium(II) complex as a catalyst.

The gold(I)-catalyzed oxidative rearrangement of propargyl alcohols provides an efficient and selective route to 1,3-diketones under mild conditions. Pyridine-N-oxides were used as external oxidants with, different from related substrates, no alkylidenecycloalkanones or oxetan-3-ones formed as side-products.

The temperature responsive PEGylated polyaspartamide derivative, denoted as mPEG-PAAHP, was synthesized by the click reaction. FTIR and ¹H NMR were adopted to characterize and confirm the chemical structures of the obtained mPEG-PAAHPs. The temperature responsive behavior investigated by transmittance and

A straightforward synthesis of fully substituted β-carbolines via Brønsted acid promoted cyclizations of α-indolyl propargylic alcohols with nitrones is described. The use of nitrones bearing alkenyl or electron-rich aryl groups as the R(4) substituent dramatically switches the reaction pathway to

Chiral Brønsted acid catalyzed asymmetric allenylboration reactions are described. Under optimized conditions, anti-homopropargyl alcohols 2 are obtained in high yields with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities from stereochemically matched aldehyde allenylboration reactions with (M)-1 catalyzed by the chiral phosphoric acid (S)-4.

The catalytic regioselective hydroboration of propargylic alcohols and ethers was investigated using NHC-CuCl. We observe that different NHC-CuCl complexes catalyze hydroborations of propargylic substrates with opposite regioselectivity. A 6-NHC-CuCl complex provides α-selectivity whereas β-selectivity is achieved using a 5-NHC-CuCl complex.
