One of the most effective strategies for their synthesis is the addition of alkynes to imines or enamines, which is typically carried out under metal catalysis and elevated temperatures. This process requires the use of high boiling point solvents such as toluene, dimethylformamide

The resulting metal acetylide reacts with the imine/enamine through a nucleophilic addition. Because imines/enamines are
