The difunctionalization reaction is achieved by different reagents. Radicals such as carbon(sp3), carbon(sp2), and other heteroatom(P, S, N, Se, O, and halide) radicals initiated by visible light can undergo radical addition to a carbon-carbon triple bond. Upon further transformation, the desired difunctionalized products are obtained. Some organometallic complexes can be activated by visible light;the difunctionalization of alkynes is catalyzed by these species. Other reagents like 1,3-dipole precursors could also react with alkynes to give difunctionalization products;here, the 1,3-dipole derivatives are obtained by visible light photocatalysis. So far, the strategy has been succeeded in the formation of C–C bonds and C–X bonds. Several valuable chemical skeletons have been constructed under mild conditions. However, high regio-and stereoselectivities in some direct difunctionalization methodologies are yet to be achieved.展开更多

By using cheap biomass lactic acid as the reaction media and catalyst, a sustainable protocol for the synthesis of Z-3-selenocyanatoacrylates and analogues through green selenocyanation of activated alkynes has been achieved. A principal advantage of this protocol is that the usage of organic volatile compounds can be avoided entirely, as the conversion of substrate is almost quantitative or quantitative with a minimal amount of lactic acid employed as reaction media, and the pure products can be conveniently collected through water precipitation.展开更多

The more favorable pathway in-volves an oxidative cyclopalladation to generate a palladacyclopropene intermediate, which is rarely examined in Pd-catalyzed alkyne transformations. The reaction pathway proposed herein is kinetically favorable relative to the commonly proposed alkyne insertion mode. Furthermore, the Laplacians of the electron density, interaction region indicators, Mayer bond orders, and localized orbital bonding are evaluated to determine the reaction processes and characterize the key intermediates. Theoretical calculations indicate covalent bonding between a Pd(II) center and the two C-atoms in three-membered palladacycle species. Finally, electrostatic potential analysis reveals that the regioselectivity is governed by the charge distribution on the palladacycle moiety during the protonation step.展开更多
