General description
2-Methyl-3-butyn-2-ol (MBY) is used as a precursor in the Mannich reaction and can undergo selective semihydrogenation to produce fine chemicals.
Application
2-Methyl-3-butyn-2-ol can be used as a reactant to synthesize:,·
- Aryl-2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ols via Pd-catalyzed Sonogashira coupling reaction with various aryl bromides.
- 2-Methyl-3-buten-2-ol (MBE) by Pd/γ-Al2O3 catalyzed selective hydrogenation reaction. MBE is applicable as an important intermediate in the synthesis of vitamin A.
- Diarylacetylenes via Pd-catalyzed Sonogashira coupling reaction with aryl chlorides in the presence of Cs2CO3 as a base.
- Optically active propargylic alcohols by enantioselective addition reaction with various aldehydes in the presence of Zn(OTf)2 and N-methylephedrine.

We report the first example of enantioselective aldehyde additions of 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol, a commodity bulk chemical that is readily available. Following a facile fragmentation reaction, the addition reactions provide access to optically active terminal acetylenes as useful building blocks for asymmetric

Density functional calculations were carried out to ascertain the origin of enantioselectivity in the brucine N-oxide (BNO)-assisted enantioselective Pauson-Khand reaction (PKR) of norbornene with 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol. The computed ee value in acetone is 68 % (R), which compares well to the previously

The activity and selectivity of structure-sensitive reactions are strongly correlated with the shape and size of the nanocrystals present in a catalyst. This correlation can be exploited for rational catalyst design, especially if each type of surface atom displays a
