A new and efficient method for the synthesis of unsymmetrical 1,3-butadiynes by gold-catalyzed C(sp)-C(sp) cross-coupling of terminal alkynes with alkynyl hypervalent iodine(III) reagents has been developed. The reaction features high selectivity and efficiency, mild reaction conditions, wide substrate scope, and functional-group compatibility, and is a highly attractive complement to existing methods. Mechanistic studies reveal that formation of a phenanthrolinyl-ligated gold(I) complex is crucial for the efficiency and selectivity of the target transformation.
