Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a nontoxic, abundant, and renewable carbon source.[1] The utilization of this environmentally friendly raw material in carbon–carbon bond-forming reactions is one of the most important challenges in homogeneous transition metal catalysis.[2] To date, two types of catalytic transformations using CO2 with CÀC bond formation have been investigated intensively: a) the substitution of Ar–Y with CO2 (Scheme 1 a) and b) the hydrocarboxylation of C–C unsaturates (Scheme 1b). The former reactions involve the carboxylations of organozinc [3a, b] and organoborane [3c–f] compounds, CÀH bonds,[3g-j] and bromoarenes [3k](Scheme 1 a). Recently, we reported the Ni-catalyzed carboxylation of chloroarenes with CO2 in the presence of Mn powder under ambient conditions.[4a] As for the hydrocarboxylation (Scheme1b), the reactions of dienes,[5a, b] alkenes,[5c] and alkynes [5d] have been reported. However, in all these cases, highly reactive and pyrophoric Et3Al [5a, b] or Et2Zn [5a, c, d] must be used as a hydride source. We recently reported the hydrocarboxylation of alkynes, by employing stable and easyto-handle hydrosilanes as the hydride source.[4b]Besides these reactions, catalytic heterocarboxylation, in which the heteroatom functionality and CO2 are simultaneously and catalytically incorporated into unsaturated substrates, is extremely useful, since the reaction will provide a valuable synthetic route employing CO2 for the formation of highly functionalized carboxylic acid derivatives. For the silacarboxylation of alkynes, the only precedent is the stoichiometric reaction of 1-hexyne (one example) reported by Fleming et al., who carried out the reaction of 1-hexyne with a stoichiometric amount of (Me2PhSi) 2CuLi· LiCN followed by trapping of the resulting Cu species with CO2 (Scheme 2 a).[6] Herein, we report the first catalytic silacarboxylation of internal alkynes employing CO2 and silylborane in the presence of a copper catalyst (Scheme2b).[7] The reaction afforded silalactone products regioselectively in good to high yields.
