An efficient synthesis of diynes using (diacetoxyiodo)benzene

A novel and facile method for synthesis of symmetrical conjugated diynes, using (diacetoxyiodo)benzene as oxidant under palladium-catalyzed conditions is presented, in which diynes are prepared in good yields in a short period of time at room temperature.
