The reaction of tetraalkynyltin with aldehydes was studied for the first time. The reaction was shown to proceed as a tandem process of nucleophilic addition of tin acetylide to aldehyde followed by Oppenauer-type oxidation of produced tin alcoholates, and may be used as a convenient one-pot approach to acetylenic ketones. The advantages and limitations of the proposed method are discussed.149 Stavropolskaya str., 350040 Krasnodar, Russian Federation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
