Nickel-catalyzed deaminative Sonogashira coupling of alkylpyridinium salts enabled by NN2 pincer ligand

Alkynes are amongst the most valuable functional groups in organic chemistry, however, the preparation of alkyl-substituted alkynes still remains elusive. Here the authors show a nickel-catalyzed deaminative Sonogashira coupling of alkylpyridinium salts.
