Abstract
The synthesis of 1,3-enyne has widespread appeal in organic synthesis due to their proven adaptability as intermediates in routes to compounds of significant biological and material interest. A variety of methods have been designed to formulate 1,3-enynes from diverse substrates, such as alkynes, 1,3-diynes, alkynyl-substituted cyclopropanes, and propargyl alcohols. This review covers the synthesis of 1,3-enynes utilizing the homo- and cross-coupling of alkynes, nucleophilic metal/acid-induced cyclopropane ring opening, and rearrangement/dehydration of propargyl alcohols. A key concern in procedures starting from alkynes and 1,3-diynes is the management of regio-, stereo-, and, where fitting, chemoselectivity. In contrast, in cyclopropyl ring opening nucleophile orientation determines the 1,3-enynes formed. Efficient methods for the broad and selective synthesis of 1,3-enynes are highlighted and specific examples are given to demonstrate the efficacy of these processes.
