3-Ene-1,5-diynes are important components of many enediyne antitumor agents and luminescent materials.A stereo-controlled approach to the synthesis of E-enediynes was developed,and it consists of the following two steps:(1)a mild and economical synthesis of dihalo vinyl derivatives via addition of CuBr2 to alkynes;(2) the Sonogashira coupling reaction of the dihalo vinyl derivatives with terminal alkynes to form conjugated enediynes.
