In 1959 Carboni and Lindsay first reported the cycloaddition reaction between 1,2,4,5-tetrazines and alkynes or alkenes (59JA4342) and this reaction type has become a useful synthetic approach to pyridazines. In general, the reaction proceeds between 1,2,4,5-tetrazines with strongly electrophilic substituents at positions 3 and 6 (alkoxycarbonyl, carboxamido, trifluoromethyl, aryl, heteroaryl, etc.) and a variety of alkenes and alkynes, enol ethers, ketene acetals, enol esters, enamines (78HC(33)1073) or even with aldehydes and ketones (79JOC629). With alkenes 1,4-dihydropyridazines (172) are first formed, which in most cases are not isolated but are oxidized further to pyridazines (173). These are obtained directly from alkynes which are, however, less reactive in these cycloaddition reactions. In general, the overall reaction which is presented in Scheme 96 is strongly... 

The final example demonstrates that microwave irradiation allows a perfect fine-tuning of reaction conditions to obtain different products from the same starting materials. In the procedure developed by Garcfa-Tellado and coworkers [41], two domino processes were coupled. The first process consists of a high-yielding synthesis of enol-protected propargylic alcohols 10-111 starting from alkyne 10-109 and aldehyde 10-110 (Scheme 10.28). In the second process, transformation into... 

Multicomponent reaction systems are highly valued in solid-phase organic synthesis because several elements of diversity can be introduced in a single transformation.1 The Mannich reaction is a classic example of a three-component system in which an active hydrogen component, such as a terminal alkyne, undergoes condensation with the putative imine species formed from the condensation of an amine with an aldehyde.2 The resultant Mannich adducts contain at least three potential sites for diversification specifically, each individual component—the amine, aldehyde, and alkyne—can be varied in structure and thus provide an element of diversity. 

Tradition reserves the use of the name acid for substances that transfer protons measurably to water. Thus the carboxylic acids stand out from alkynes, halides, alcohols, and simple aldehydes and ketones in giving water solutions that are acidic to indicator papers or pH meters as the result of proton transfers from the carboxyl groups ...
