Abstract

Pd/C-catalyzed oxidative alkoxycarbonylation of terminal alkynes using alcohols in the presence of tetrabutylammonium iodide under CO/O₂ (5:1 atm) has been investigated. The desired α,β-alkynyl esters and unsymmetrical maleate esters are formed in good to excellent yields under different reaction conditions. The present protocol eliminates the use of phosphine ligands and has straightforward catalyst recovery. The catalyst was recycled up to six times without significant loss of catalytic activity.

Key words

alkynes - carbonylation - heterogeneous catalysis - palladium - alcohols

12 Oxidative Alkoxycarbonylation of Terminal Alkynes; General Procedure: To a 100 mL stainless steel autoclave, the alk-1-yne (1 mmol), the alcohol (0.5 mL), 10% Pd/C (10 mol%), TBAI (0.6 mmol), and 1,4-dioxane (10 mL) were added. The autoclave was closed and pressurized with oxygen (1 atm) and CO (5 atm) without flushing. The reaction mixture was stirred (550 rpm) and heated at 80 °C for 8 h. The reactor was then cooled to r.t. and the pressure released. The reaction mixture was filtered and the filtrate was washed with saturated sodium thiosulphate (3 × 4 mL), dried over Na₂SO₄, filtered and the solvent evaporated. The crude product was purified by column chromatography.
