Carbanions and Electrophilic Aliphatic Substitution

“…131 The rhodium-catalysed addition of alkynes to 1,2-diketones, 1,2-keto esters, and aldehydes has provided a method for the synthesis of tertiary alkynyl alcohols under 132 The reaction tolerates many functional groups (such as carboxylic acids) that are incompatible with other methods. The alkyne addition reaction proceeded best using bulky phosphine ligands such as 2-(di-t-butylphosphino) biphenyl.…”
