Synthesis of 5-alkynyl-2,2,6-trimethyl-1,3-dioxin-4-ones and 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles

AbstractHerein we report an approach to the formation of 5-alkynyl-1,3-dioxin-4-ones using Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of potassium alkynyltrifluoroborate salts with 2,2,6-trimethyl-5-iodo-1,3-dioxin-4-one. The resulting 5-ethynyltrimethylsilyl-1,3-dioxin-4-ones obtained through the Sonogashira reaction were further reacted in a Cu(I)-catalyzed Huisgen azide–alkyne 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition to form functionalized 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles in good yields, using mild conditions and ultrasonic radiation to expedite the reaction
