An efficient chemoselective synthesis of O-vinylaryl systems using acetylenic esters and dihydroxybenzenes in the presence of triphenylphosphine or alkyl isocyanides

摘要

The addition of 2,4-dihydroxyaceto(and benzo)phenone to propiolic ester is catalyzed by triphenylphosphine or tert-butyl isocyanide to form O-vinyl aryl derivatives in fairly good yields.
