The ability to induce powerful atom-economic transformation of alkynes is the key feature of carbophilic π-Lewis acids such as gold- and platinum-based catalysts. The unique catalytic activity of these compounds in electrophilic activations of alkynes is explained through relativistic effects, enabling efficient orbital overlapping with π-systems. For this reason, it is believed that noble metals are indispensable components in the catalysis of such reactions. In this study, we report that thermally activated γ-Al2O3activates enynes, diynes, and arene-ynes in a manner enabling reactions that were typically assigned to the softest π-Lewis acids, while some were known to be triggered exclusively by gold catalysts. We demonstrate the scope of these transformations and suggest a qualitative explanation of this phenomenon based on the Dewar-Chatt-Duncanson model confirmed by density functional theory calculations.

A facile metal-free synthesis of naphthalenes by intramolecular transannulation of 1-sulfonyl-4-(2-alkenylphenyl)-1,2,3-triazoles was realized. The in situ formed ketenimine was proposed as the key intermediate, and the desired 2-aminonaphthalenes were generated in up to 87% yield in refluxing 1,2-dichloroethane without any catalyst or additive.

A highly modular approach to fused 1,2,3-triazoles has been developed featuring a one-pot procedure combining copper(I) catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition and palladium-catalyzed C-H bond functionalization. A class of structurally unique heterocycles was synthesized in good yields.
