Abstract

The title compound 2 is readily prepared as a stable microcrystalline solid from bis(tri-n-butylstannyl)acetylene and PhlCN•OTf. It was fully characterized by multinuclear NMR, IR, and elemental analysis. As expected, the electron-deficient acetylene 2 reacts with a number of nucleophiles (e.g., Ph3P, PhSNa, and PhOLi) providing a variety of bifunctionalized acetylenes 5, 6, 7, and 9. It also undergoes cycloaddition reactions with cyclopentadiene, furan, and other 1,3-dienes to afford useful bis(iodonium)norbornadiene-type adducts 12–14.
