Propiolic acid was investigated in the superacidic system F/SbF ( = H, D). The salts of the monoprotonated species of propiolic acid were characterized by vibrational and NMR spectroscopy as well as single-crystal analyses. The rotational conformers of the protonated species can be distinguished by NMR spectroscopy via the temperature-dependent rotational barrier. In the solid state, they can be detected by H/D exchange and packing effects due to different anions. The experimental results are discussed together with an IRC calculation of the rotational barrier. After acetic acid and formic acid, this is the third protonated carboxylic acid for which the energy differences between the conformers have been determined.

As part of our continuing research on propiolic acid derivatives, a series of benzyl propiolate derivatives and analogues were designed, synthesized, and investigated for inhibition activity and on phytopathogenic fungi, structure-activity relationship (SAR) and action mechanism. The results showed that most of the compounds had potent and broad-spectrum antifungal activity at 50 μg/mL. Among the compounds, 2-bromobenzyl propiolate () displayed the highest comprehensive activity with total activity index (TAI) of 4.

1,2,3-triazole is a vital structural motif of various drugs and therapeutic leads, as well as a linker for bioconjugation and molecular recognition. Cu-catalysed click cycloaddition of azides with terminal alkynes (CuAAc) is an important reaction to construct the triazole core. In recent years, various decarboxylative click strategies utilizing alkynoic acids as stable surrogates for low boiling or gaseous alkynes have been developed.

Copper-Free Synthesis of Cationic Glycidyl Triazolyl Polymers.

Macromol Rapid Commun

December 2024

1-1 Namiki, Tsukuba, Ibaraki, 305-0044, Japan.

Copper-free synthesis of cationic glycidyl triazolyl polymers (GTPs) is achieved through a thermal azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction between glycidyl azide polymer and propiolic acid, followed by decarboxylation and quaternization of the triazole unit. For synthesizing nonfunctionalized GTP (GTP-H), a microwave-assisted method enhances the decarboxylation reaction of carboxy-functionalized GTP (GTP-COOH). Three variants of cationic GTPs with different N-substituents [N-ethyl, N-butyl, and N-tri(ethylene glycol) monomethyl ether (EG3)] are synthesized.

Electromagnetic mill (EMM)-promoted solid-state cascade Heck-type cyclization/decarboxylative coupling of propiolic acid with (Z)-1-iodo-1,6-diene derivate was demonstrated. The reaction was realized via palladium catalysis, which is solvent-free and involves no additional heating. The collision between ferromagnetic rods could not only be a favor to the mixing between the solid substrates and the catalyst system, but also the thermogenic action could accelerate this transformation.
