Abstract Copper( I) chloride was found to be a highly efficient reagent to promote the cleavage of acetylenic substituents from the camphor skeleton of compounds 1 containing two C - C triple bonds as well as from the compounds 6 and 7 containing one. This is a formal reversal of the formation of these compounds by the reaction of acetylides with keto and imino groups in compound 18. The substituent R at the triple bond modi. es the reactivity and regioselectivity. As intermediates in the process we identi. ed complexes of the types [ Cu( L) depr] ( where ( L) depr denotes a deprotonated camphor- derived ligand ( L)) and [ CuCl( L)]. Quantum mechanical calculations support and rationalize the experimental results. (c) 2008 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.
