Abstract
The direct C-3 alkynylation of indolizines with (2,2-dibromovinyl)arenes in the presence of palladium catalyst has been developed. This novel protocol showed wide substrate scope with respect to both indolizines and dibromoalkenes. Also this method was characterized with high efficiency and good functional group tolerance.

Notes
a All reactions were run with indolizine-1-carbonitrile (0.3 mmol), (2,2-dibromovinyl) benzene (0.9 mmol), catalyst (0.03 mmol), ligand (0.06 mmol), base (0.9 mmol), and solvent (2 mL), at 100 °C for 24 h under N2.
b DPEPhos = oxybis(2,1-phenylene)bis(diphenylphosphine).
c Isolated yields of alkynylation.
d When AgOAc (2 equiv) was added.
