A method is described for the oxidative Meyer–Schuster-type rearrangement of propargylic alcohols to (Z)-α-chloro- and α-iodoenones using VOCl3 as a multifunctional reagent. The vanadium reagent is found to serve as rearrangement promoter as well as an active chlorenium ion donor. Yields are improved when VOCl3 is employed in conjunction with N-halosuccinimide reagents, giving some insights into the complex mechanism.

An efficient methodology for the synthesis of vinyl-, allyl-, and (E)-2-boryl allylboronates from propargylic alcohols via Cu-catalyzed borylation under mild conditions is reported. In the presence of commercially available Cu(OAc)2 or Cu(acac)2 and Xantphos, the reaction affords the desired products in up to 92% yield with a broad substrate scope (43 examples). Isolation of an allenyl boronate as the reaction intermediate suggests that an insertion-elimination-type reaction, followed by borylcupration, is involved in the borylation of propargylic alcohols.

Easily accessible propargylic esters are converted to the inverted alkynyl ketones in an oxidative gold-catalyzed reaction. Gagosz's catalyst in combination with PhI(OAc)2 is the best system for this conversion and 18 examples with yields up to 80 % are reported. The results indicate that the triple bond in the product is formed by elimination from a vinylgold intermediate. In a formal sense the new conversion overall is a dehydrogenative Meyer-Schuster rearrangement. It takes alkynes: Propargyl esters can be converted into alkynyl ketones by a new oxidative gold-catalyzed reaction. The best catalyst system is Ph3PAuCl/AgNTf2 in combination with the oxidant PhI(OAc)2. The yields are as high as 80 % and the reaction can be conducted in the presence of air. Copyright
