Ternary catalytic systems consisting of cobalt salts, phosphine ligands, and Grignard reagents promote addition of arylpyridines and imines to unactivated internal alkynes with high regio- and stereoselectivities. Deuterium-labeling experiments suggest that the reaction involves chelation-assisted oxidative addition of the aryl C-H bond to the cobalt center and insertion of the C-C triple bond into the Co-H bond, followed by reductive elimination of the resulting diorganocobalt species.
