Amberlite IR-120H as an efficient and versatile solid phase catalyst for nucleophilic substitution of propargylic alcohols

A highly efficient Amberlite IR-120H resin mediated nucleophilic substitution of the hydroxyl group of propargylic alcohols with a wide range of nucleophiles is reported. The reactions were achieved under very mild conditions in excellent yields. (c) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
