Ketones and alkynes join together: The catalytic title reaction proceeds rapidly at 120 °C and requires only 1 hour for completion (see scheme). The reaction mechanism likely involves chelation-assisted ortho C-H activation, insertion of the alkyne moiety, carbocyclization, and protonation. Cp=pentamethylcyclopentadienyl. Copyright
