“…Vinyl metal carbenes, a crucial type of functionalized metal carbenes, have wide applications in organic synthesis for their diversified transformation sites, thus offering a rapid route to a wide range of functionalized products . However, examples with alkynes as vinyl metal carbene precursors are much less reported (Scheme a, right). − The easily accessible propargylic esters and propargylic thioether were the dominating reported precursors. , Among them, the propargylic esters were usually activated by carbophilic metal complexes, such as gold(I), rhodium(I), etc., followed by 1,2-migration of the acyloxy of propargylic esters for the formation of vinyl carbene, which usually presents a noncyclic structure . Besides, 1,2-acyloxy migration is usually limited to substrates derived from tertiary or benzylic alcohols containing terminal alkynes, thus to a significant extent limiting their synthetic utilities .…”
