12. Conjugate additions of 2-(alkynyl)anilines to 1,3-diphenylpropynones (MeOH, 120°C) were carried out using a Carousel Tube Reaction (Radley Discovery).
13. Enaminones 3 can also be prepared by treating the conjugate addition products derived from 2-iodonilines and 1,3-diarylpropynones with terminal alkynes. Using this procedure, 3a, 3q, and 3r were isolated in 77%, 74%, and 70% overall yields, respectively. This protocol, however, appeared less suited for the development of a sequential process that would omit the isolation of the enaminone intermediates (Scheme 4). (Chemical Equation Presented)
