Abstract
Dinuclear and mononuclear palladium complexes with N,N'-bis[2-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl]amidinate (DPFAM) as a ligand catalyzed the cross-addition of triisopropylsilylacetylene (TIPSA) to unactivated internal alkynes, giving enynes selectively. The reactions of TIPSA with several terminal alkynes also gave cross-adducts selectively, although the yields were moderate.
