Abstract
The preparation of alkynes from carbonyl compounds via a one-carbon
homologation has become a very useful pathway for the synthesis of acetylenic
compounds, both internal and terminal. This tutorial review provides an overview of
the different methods available for this transformation, including their scope and
limitations, recent developments and applications in total syntheses.
