Abstract
Transcending oxidation level: Under the conditions of ruthenium-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation, conjugated enynes couple to benzylic, allylic, and aliphatic alcohols or aldehydes to furnish products of carbonyl propargylation (see scheme; dppf=1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene, TBS=tert-butyldimethylsilyl). Isotopic labeling studies corroborate a mechanism involving hydrogen donation from the alcohol to the enyne.
