The Favorsky reaction of a wide range of aldehydes and ketones with alkynes has been implemented under mild conditions (5-20 C). Using a Bu 4NOH/H2O/DMSO catalytic system, propargylic alcohols are formed cleanly in 39-93% (mostly 72-93%) yields and with ca. 100% selectivity. The method is suitable for aliphatic, aromatic, and heteroaromatic aldehydes and ketones, and for aliphatic, aromatic, and functionalized acetylenes. Thus, this represents the most general and efficient protocol to achieve the Favorsky reaction. Copyright
