A facile synthesis of anilinocarbonyl acetylene was achieved in a microwave-assisted condition via condensation of anilines and propiolic acid. The reactions can be completed smoothly within 10 minutes at 30 °C, producing terminal alkynes with excellent yields.
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.
