Abstract
An efficient microwave-assisted copper triflate-catalyzed reaction for the hydration of terminal aryl acetylenes to prepare substituted acetophenones has been developed. Significantly shorter reaction time, low catalyst loading, and wide range of functional group tolerance are salient features of this methodology.
