Abstract:Alkynes are readily available and multifunctional synthetic intermediates, but their 1,1-oxofunctionalization remains challenging. Herein, we report a 1,1-oxycarbonation of terminal alkynes to construct ketones through sequential borylation, 1,2carbon migration, and oxidation with Oxone as the proton source and oxidant. The synthetic potential of this transformation is showcased by the broad functional groups, scale-up synthesis, and diverse product transformations.
