FGs over CRC bonds and removal from the products. (4) In the
case of propargylic alcohols as latent internal alkynes, cleavage of
the OH motif during catalysis made the protocols step-efficient
without the need for the removal of OH from the products. (5) Both
terminal and internal alkynes were successfully activated. (6) The
protocols work with catalytic amounts of inexpensive silver salts
and Lewis acids. (7) Because propargylic alcohols were used as
precursors of internal alkynes for s-activation, their easy access
made this s-activation highly favourable, whereas their divergent
synthesis from many directions made the protocols quite general
and applicable to different internal alkynes.
In this context, this review emphasizes that our group
successfully developed alkyne functionalization reactions,
which proceeded through catalytic s-activation of CRC bonds,
and their further applications in organic chemistry (Fig. 2). An
emphasis on the mechanistic aspects of the reaction helps
readers to further design new reactions based on this novel
concept of catalytic s-activation of CRC bonds.

These compounds are particularly important in transitionmetal-catalyzed azahetero cyclization reactions for the synthesis
of N-heterocyclic compounds.19 However, the synthetic potential of
vinyl azides has not been fully explored because of the limited
availability of methods for their large-scale synthesis.20 Therefore,
the development of novel and more convenient methods for the
large-scale synthesis of highly functionalized vinyl azides is
urgently needed.
Hydroelementation of alkynes is a straightforward reliable
pathway for synthesizing highly functionalized alkenes,9eg and
furthermore alkynes are easily accessible chemicals. Therefore,
we believed that hydroazidation of alkynes will become an ideal
method to synthesize vinyl azides (Scheme 2). But such reactions
are limited to electron-deficient alkynes.20 Regarding unactivated
alkynes, only two individual examples are available (Scheme 2a
and b).20d,21a In other cases, vinyl azides formed as intermediates
during the conversion of alkynes into amides (Scheme 2c)21b or
tetrazoles (Scheme 2d).21c Inspired by Jiaos pioneering studies
(Scheme 2b and c), we focused on hydroazidation of ethynyl
carbinols with TMSN3 using our concept of catalytic s-activation
under silver catalysis. This investigation led us to the discovery
of hydroxy-directed unprecedented chemo- and regioselective
hydroazidation of ethynyl carbinols to afford 2-azidoallyl alcohols
(Scheme 2e).22

From the hydroazidation of 1-alkynes (Scheme 12) and doublehydroazidation of diynes (Scheme 14b and c), we assumed that
performing mono-hydroazidation of diynes (28) would easily
lead to tandem mono-hydroazidation followed by alkyneazide
cycloaddition, thereby leading to the formation of 1,5-fused
1,2,3-triazole frameworks (29) (Scheme 15).
To check correctness of our assumption, a reaction was performed between 1,3-diphenyl-2,2-di(prop-2-yn-1-yl)propane-1,3-dione

Scheme 35
Using this protocol, we performed selective reductive deoxyallenylation of a 30 -propargylic alcohol moiety into an allene moiety
over a 20 -propargylic alcohol moiety (Scheme 34).
We subsequently applied this methodology for conversion of
bis-propargylic alcohols (78) into diallenes (79)67 (Scheme 35).
But terminal propargylic alcohols (80) gave better results
under optimized conditions of AgOTf (20 mol%) and TfOH
(10 mol%) in nitromethane solvent at 35 1C (Scheme 36).65

Since the first report by Kelber in 1910,69 a-oxo-ketenedithioacetals have been recognized as versatile synthons in
organic syntheses. They have also been considered as polar
functionalized alkenes in two-carbon fragment reactions. Using
the strategy of s-activation of CRC bonds via propargylic
cations, we have developed a deoxyallenylative coupling of
propargylic alcohols (82) with a-oxo-ketene-dithioacetals (83)
for a new and facile synthesis of gem-bis(alkylthio)vinyl-allenes
(84).70 The optimal reaction conditions were FeBr3 (20 mol%)
and TfOH (10 mol%) in toluene at ambient temperatures
(Scheme 37).71 The reaction with a-cyano-ketene-dithioacetal
aorded 1,1-bis(alkylthio)penten-4-yne (84c). We exploited
the regulatory eect of the alkylthio group of these gembis(alkylthio)vinyl-allenes (84), by using these as reagents for
the synthesis of fully substituted pyrroles.72
Further studies revealed that the reaction between 30 -propargylic
alcohols (82) and R3 = Ar i.e. 85 and a-acetyl-ketene-dithioacetal (86)
under FeBr3 catalysis rapidly produced gem-dialkylthio-vinylallenes
(84).71 Furthermore, when TFA was added to this reaction mixture
and stirred, indene derivatives (87) were generated in moderate to
good yields (Scheme 38).
A plausible mechanism for the coupling reaction between
propargylic alcohols (82) and a-oxo-ketene-dithioacetals (83)
and rearrangement to indene derivatives (87) was proposed
(Scheme 39). The reaction might be initiated by the formation

The reaction conditions for the synthesis of a-bis(alkylthio)-dlactams (90) were BF3OEt2 (1.1 equiv.) in 1,2,3-trichoropropane
followed by the addition of trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) at room
temperature (Scheme 41a). In the case of a-bis(alkylthio)-dlactones (91), tandem coupling/intramolecular annulation took
place in toluene without the addition of TFA (Scheme 41b).
The reaction pathway for the synthesis of d-lactams (90) and
d-lactones (91) involved the coupling of a-oxo-ketene-dithioacetals
(88a, b) with propargylic alcohols according to Scheme 39, leading to
the formation of allenic amides (89a) and allenic acids (89b). After
coupling, in the case of allenic amides (89a), protonation of the
central carbon of the allenic system and intramolecular nucleophilic
addition of an amino group to the tertiary carbocation produce
d-lactams (90). Whereas in the case of allenic acids (89b), the
allene moiety is activated by a Lewis acid, which is followed by
intramolecular nucleophilic attack by a hydroxyl motif leading
to the formation of d-lactones (91) (Scheme 42).

(45D). Later, 45D undergoes 1,4-alkylthio shift to form 45E.
Finally, elimination of a proton and cleavage of the CS bond
produces 2,5-diethylthio cyclopentadiene (94).

6. Conclusions
We have successfully implemented the concept of catalytic
s-activation of CRC bonds to both terminal and internal
unactivated alkynes. In the case of terminal alkynes, s-activation
was achieved by silver-catalyzed CH bond metathesis. In the case
of internal alkynes, catalytic s-activation was achieved via
generation of a propargylic cation from the corresponding
propargylic alcohols under Lewis-acid catalysis. These s-activated
species were skillfully utilized for unprecedented hydroazidation,
cycloaddition, cross-coupling, deoxyallenylation and annulation
reactions in intramolecular, intermolecular and tandem manner.
By these reactions we have synthesized highly functionalized vinyl
azides, allenes, heterocyclic and carbocyclic compounds.
Furthermore, our catalytic system for s-activation was also
applicable to p-activation of CRC bonds.
Further research work in order to pursue catalytic s-activation
of CRC bonds by using abundantly available metal and nonmetal catalysts and other alkynyl compounds for the synthesis
of biologically significant and commercially valuable chemicals
is in progress in our research laboratory.
