Ru-mediated selective addition reactions of carboxylic acids to internal and terminal alkynes
This study examined the nucleophilic addition of trichloroacetic acid to internal alkynes using RuCHPhCl2(PCy3)(IPr) (IPr: [1,3-Bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo-2-ylidene]). This reaction was performed in good yield
