1 h. To the resulting suspension was added 5-iodo-1-
(trimethylsilyl)pent-1-yne (266 mg, 1.0 mmol), and then
FeCl3 (0.1 M solution in THF, 0.5 mL, 0.05 mmol) at 0 °C.
The reaction mixture was stirred at 50 °C for 0.5 h. After
quenching with a saturated aqueous solution of NH4Cl, the
mixture was filtered through a pad of Florisil®, and
concentrated in vacuo. Purification by silica gel
chromatography afforded 5-phenyl-1-(trimethylsilyl)pent-
1-yne (201 mg, 93%); FTIR (neat): 2958 (w), 2902 (w),
2175 (w), 1478 (w), 1451 (s), 1395 (w), 1366 (s), 1268 (w),

dry reaction vessel, a mixture of ArZnBr (0.48 M solution in
THF, 4.2 mL, 2.0 mmol) and Me3SiCH2MgCl (1.1 M
solution in Et2O, 1.8 mL, 2.0 mmol) was stirred at 0 °C for 1
h. To the resulting solution was added TMEDA (0.30 mL,
