Direct Formation of Reactive Alkynyltrichlorotins from 1-Alkynes, SnCl4, and Bu3N. A Mild Alkynylation Reagent of Aldehydes, Acetals, and Enones

Abstract
A reagent system of 1-alkyne, SnCl4, and Bu3N alkynylates aldehydes, acetals, and enones under mild reaction conditions giving acetylenic alcohols, acetylenic ethers, and acetylenic ketones, respectively, in high yields. Alkynyltrichlorotins are shown to be the reactive species for these reactions.
