A copper(I) complex of i-Pr-pybox-diPh efficiently catalyzes the enantioselective one-pot three-component synthesis of propargylamines from aromatic aldehydes, anilines, and alkynes. A transition-state model has been proposed.

A wide range of chiral propargylamines can be prepared in a one-pot three-component reaction between an alkyne, an aldehyde and a secondary amine at room temperature in the presence of CuBr and (R)-quinap in good yield and good enantioselectivity.

A highly enantioselective, catalytic three-component coupling of aldehydes, alkynes, and 4-piperidone hydrochloride hydrate affords the corresponding tertiary propargylamines in useful yields. A selective cleavage of the piperidone protecting group is possible using either ammonia/EtOH or a polymer-supported scavenger amine.

A highly efficient gold-catalyzed three-component-coupling of aldehydes, alkynes, and amines in water was developed. Excellent yields of the corresponding propargylamines were obtained in most cases for both aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes and various amines.

A three-component coupling between an aldehyde, alkyne and amine is catalyzed by silver iodide to generate propargylic amines in high yields in water without cocatalyst or activator. This method is especially effective for reactions involving aliphatic aldehydes.
C. Wei, Z. Li, C.-J. Li, Org. Lett., 2003, 5, 4473-4475.


Propargylamines have been synthesized by a gold(III) salen complex-catalyzed three-component coupling reaction of aldehydes, amines, and alkynes in water in excellent yields at 40°C. With chiral prolinol derivatives as the amine component, excellent diastereoselectivities have been attained.

A general and efficient FeCl3-catalyzed substitution reaction of propargylic alcohols with carbon- and heteroatom-centered nucleophiles such as allyl trimethylsilane, alcohols, aromatic compounds, thiols, and amides, forms new C-C, C-O, C-S and C-N bonds.
