Transition metal-free dimerization of alkynes using hypervalent iodine reagents

, p. 1678 - 1680 (2016)
This communication describes the use of hypervalent iodine reagents to facilitate the homo-coupling of terminal alkynes. A variety of different aliphatic and aromatic alkynes were successfully dimerized when using acetoxy-benziodoxole as the activating agent under operationally simple transition metal-free conditions.
