A highly efficient and convenient Negishi cross-coupling reaction has been developed for the synthesis of unsymmetrical alkynes and enynes in a continuous-flow process. The reaction proceeds through an in situ generated alkynylzinc reagent by the reaction of lithium acetylide with zinc halide at room temperature followed by a cross-coupling reaction with aryl or vinyl iodides. The notable features of this work compared to the conventional benchtop method are mild reaction conditions, good to excellent yields, broad functional-group compatibility, short residence time (73 sec) and especially desilylation of TMS group with the residence time of only 10.5 sec.
