A polystyrene-supported zinc bromide-ethylenediamine complex is a useful, recyclable heterogeneous catalyst for the rapid and efficient synthesis of α,β-acetylenic ketones in very good yields by cross coupling of acid chlorides with terminal alkynes. The catalyst is easily prepared, stable, reusable, and efficient under the reaction conditions.

2-Oxo-3-butynoates and 2-oxo-3-butynoamides were synthesized by a general, efficient and mild Cu(I)-catalyzed cross-coupling of terminal alkynes and monooxalyl chloride derivatives. Readily available starting materials, mild reaction conditions, wide functional group tolerance, and the obviation of stoichiometric organometallic reagents combine to highlight this reaction.
