The cationic alkynyl Heck reaction between aryl triflates and alkynes to give substituted allenes is described. Key to the success of this method was the discovery and development of a new hybrid Pd(0)-catalyst, BobCat, that incorporates a water-soluble dba-ligand and biaryl phosphine ligand to provide substituted allenes in good yields under mild reaction conditions.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008024	Ligands	A molecule that binds to another molecule, used especially to refer to a small molecule that binds specifically to a larger molecule, e.g., an antigen binding to an antibody, a hormone or neurotransmitter binding to a receptor, or a substrate or allosteric effector binding to an enzyme. Ligands are also molecules that donate or accept a pair of electrons to form a coordinate covalent bond with the central metal atom of a coordination complex. (From Dorland, 27th ed)	Ligand
D008698	Mesylates	Organic salts or esters of methanesulfonic acid.	Mesilate,Methanesulfonates,Mesilates,Mesylate,Methylenesulfonates
D010165	Palladium	A chemical element having an atomic weight of 106.4, atomic number of 46, and the symbol Pd. It is a white, ductile metal resembling platinum, and following it in abundance and importance of applications. It is used in dentistry in the form of gold, silver, and copper alloys.
D002384	Catalysis	The facilitation of a chemical reaction by material (catalyst) that is not consumed by the reaction.	Catalyses
D000466	Alkadienes	Acyclic branched or unbranched hydrocarbons having two carbon-carbon double bonds.	Diolefins,Pentadienes
D000480	Alkynes	Hydrocarbons with at least one triple bond in the linear portion, of the general formula Cn-H2n-2.	Acetylenic Compounds,Alkyne,Acetylenes
D014867	Water	A clear, odorless, tasteless liquid that is essential for most animal and plant life and is an excellent solvent for many substances. The chemical formula is hydrogen oxide (H2O). (McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 4th ed)	Hydrogen Oxide
D015394	Molecular Structure	The location of the atoms, groups or ions relative to one another in a molecule, as well as the number, type and location of covalent bonds.	Structure, Molecular,Molecular Structures,Structures, Molecular
D056831	Coordination Complexes	Neutral or negatively charged ligands bonded to metal cations or neutral atoms. The number of ligand atoms to which the metal center is directly bonded is the metal cation's coordination number, and this number is always greater than the regular valence or oxidation number of the metal. A coordination complex can be negative, neutral, or positively charged.	Metal Complexes,Complexes, Coordination,Complexes, Metal
