Abstract

Several 2-alkynyl 1,3,4-oxadiazoles have been synthesized efficiently by employing palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling under Sonogashira reaction conditions. This reaction has been applied for the first time for the preparation of oxadiazole derivatives. The products were formed in high yields and no side products were detected.
