Abstract

The first example of cobalt-catalyzed selective bis-alkynylation of amides via double C–H bond activation with the directing assistance of a removable bidentate auxiliary is reported. The developed alkynylation strategy is simple, efficient, and tolerant of various functional groups including ether, amine, halides, and heterocyclic motifs. The reaction can be scaled up under mild conditions.
