Abstract

The fluoride-assisted ethynylation of ketones and aldehydes is described
using commercially available calcium carbide with typically 5 mol % of
TBAF·3H2O as the catalyst in DMSO. Activation of calcium
carbide by fluoride is thought to generate an acetylide “ate”-complex
that readily adds to carbonyl groups. Aliphatic aldehydes and ketones
generally provide high yields, whereas aromatic carbonyls afford
propargylic alcohols with moderate to good yields. The use of calcium
carbide as a safe acetylide ion source along with economic amounts of
TBAF·3H2O make this procedure a cheap and operationally simple method for the preparation of propargylic alcohols.
