SnCl4·5H2O: A Highly Efficient Catalyst for Hydration of Alkyne

SnCl4·5H2O is a highly efficient catalyst in the hydration of terminal alkynes that affords carbonyl compounds in high to good yields. Under the optimized reaction conditions, the moderate to excellent yields of corresponding ketones were obtained when the aromatic and aliphatic terminal alkynes wer...
