Addition of alkynes and osmium carbynes towards functionalized d π–p π conjugated systems
Abstract
Metal-carbon and carbon-carbon triple bonds are highly unsaturated bonds and their reactions tend to afford cycloaddition intermediates or products. Here, the authors report a new robust reaction on metal-carbon and carbon-carbon triple bonds which affords region- and stereospecific acyclic addition products.
