Beyond Acetylene: Exploring Solvent Stabilization of Calcium Carbide‐derived Acetylide Intermediates and Their Significance in Small Organic Molecule Synthesis
(2024)
Journal Article
The reaction of calcium carbide with water has been widely used as a source of acetylene for the synthesis of organic molecules. In contrast with this traditional approach, we use the CaC2 reaction under water-starved conditions and show reactions th...
