{Reference Type}: Journal Article {Title}: Practical Synthesis of Ethynyl(phenyl)-λ3-Iodane Using Calcium Carbide as an Ethynyl Group Source. {Author}: Hashishin T;Osawa T;Miyamoto K;Uchiyama M; {Journal}: Front Chem {Volume}: 8 {Issue}: 0 {Year}: 2020 {Factor}: 5.545 {DOI}: 10.3389/fchem.2020.00012 {Abstract}: Stannylation of calcium carbide followed by Sn-hypervalent iodine(III) exchange reaction cleanly afforded the electrophilic ethynylating agent ethynyl(phenyl)-λ3-iodane in high yield. This two-step method uses very inexpensive materials and is readily operable without any special precautions.
