A useful synthon: acetylenedicarbaldehyde (but-2-ynedial)

Abstract
The preparation of acetylenedicarbaldehyde (but-2-ynedial)(2) and its electrophilic properties towards some dienes are reported; the usefulness of the two aldehyde groups in the adducts obtained is exemplified by a Wittig reaction and the synthesis of a pyridazine.
