Abstract
A cyclobutene-1,2-bis(imidazolium) salt proved to be an efficient catalyst precursor for one-pot tandem Suzuki―Miyaura/ dehydrobromination reactions for the synthesis of alkynes starting from 1,1-dibromoalkenes and palladium(II) acetate, aryl boronic acids, and potassium tert-butoxide in toluene. Starting materials were prepared from aldehydes under Corey―Fuchs conditions.
