Sequential reactions can provide efficient access to a variety of important organic compounds that would be otherwise difficult to obtain using conventional methods and readily available starting materials. Based on the importance of 2‐alkynoates in organic synthesis, the current research aimed to develop a method for the convenient synthesis of functionalized 2‐alkynoates from terminal alkynes, CO2 , terminal alkene‐derived bromides, and methyl acrylate using a combination of the carboxylative coupling and cross‐metathesis reactions. The initial ligand‐free silver‐catalyzed car‐ boxylative coupling reactions of a variety of different aryl‐substituted terminal alkynes and CO2 with 5‐bromopentene and 6‐bromohexene provided a series of 4‐pentenyl 2‐alkynoates and 5‐hexenyl 2‐alkynoates, respectively, in good yield. These resulting 2‐alkynoates were further transformed into methyl (E)‐6‐acetylenecarboxy‐2‐hexenoates and (E)‐7‐acetylenecarboxy‐2‐heptenoates in moderate to good yields by their cross‐metathesis reactions with methyl acrylate in the presence of the Grubbs‐Hoveyda catalyst. All of the new products characterized spectroscopically.
