A one-pot, copper-catalyzed method to construct 2-alk-ynylpyridines is presented. This provides a route to access these products directly from terminal alkynes and the parent pyridine, and without prefunctionalization of the pyridine core. In addition, (Z)-alk-2-enylpyridines can be prepared via a related procedure. These reactions are used to synthesize a number of new alkynyl-and alkenyl-substituted pyridines in one pot.
