Preparation

The triisopropylsilyl derivative of butynone is prepared by oxidation of the corresponding derivative of 2-butynol, itself prepared from TIPS acetylene by deprotonation followed by nucleophilic addition to acetaldehyde.[1]

Applications

Butynone was one of the reagents used in the discovery of the Bohlmann–Rahtz pyridine synthesis.[2]

Butynone and its derivatives participate in cycloaddition reactions, yielding a variety of heterocycles. The electron-deficient alkyne group participates in the azide-alkyne Huisgen cycloaddition to produce 1,2,3-triazine methyl ketones.[3] [4+2+1] cycloaddition with 1,2-phenylenediamine and furfural derivatives gives benzodiazepine rings.[4]
