Procedure: 4-Bromobenzaldehyde (3.0 g, 16 mmol), Pd(PPh3)2Cl2 (110 mg, 0.170 mmol) and CuI (16 mg, 0.07 mmol) were placed in a Schlenk flask. The flask was then evacuated and purged with argon (3 times) on the Schlenk line. Then freshly distilled and degassed TEA (32 mL) was added, and after purging with argon, 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol (1.90 mL, 19.4 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred for 2 h at 40° C. (The progress of the reaction was monitored by GC-MS). The reaction mixture was evaporated to dryness and then chromatographed (silica, CH2Cl2). Bulb-to-bulb distillation (93-95° C., 0.001 mm Hg) gave a pale yellowish oil (2.90 g, 95%). 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 1.61 (s, 6H), 2.23 (brs, 1H), 7.52 (AB/2, J=8.1 Hz, 2H), 7.79 (AB/2, J=8.1 Hz, 2H), 9.02 (s, 1H); 13C NMR δ 31.9, 66.1, 81.9, 98.8, 129.8, 130.1, 132.7, 135.9, 192.3; IR (film) v (cm−1) 790.4, 830.1, 906.3, 963.4, 1014.3, 1046.1, 1165.9, 1207.0, 1273.4, 1303.0, 1373.0, 1457.6, 1563.8, 1603.6, 1700.0, 2228.1, 2735.0, 2837.8, 2934.1, 2982.2, 3413.3; MS (EI+) m/z 188 (M+, 35%), 173 (100%), 159 (10%); EI-MS obsd 188.0835, calcd exact mass 188.0837 (C12H12O2).

Procedure: 4-Bromobenzaldehyde (3.0 g, 16 mmol), Pd(PPh3)2Cl2 (110 mg, 0.170 mmol) and CuI (16 mg, 0.07 mmol) were placed in a Schienk flask. The flask was then evacuated and purged with argon (3 times) on the Schienk line.
