Facile and Efficient Syntheses of Carboxylic Anhydrides and Amides Using (Trimethylsilyl)ethoxyacetylene
(Trimethylsilyl)ethoxyacetylene, a stable and easy-handling reagent, serves as an excellent dehydrating agent for the synthesis of carboxylic anhydrides and amides from the corresponding carboxylic acids.By means of this reagent, various types of acid-sensitive carboxylic anhydrides and amides were obtained almost in quantative yields.Twenty-two examples of carboxylic anhydrides and 12 examples of amides were presented.
