A diversity of reactions involving the acetylene molecule to carry out vinylation processes, cross-coupling reactions, synthesis of substituted alkynes, preparation of heterocycles and the construction of a number of functionalized molecules with different levels of molecular complexity were recently studied. Of particular importance is the utilization of acetylene in the synthesis of pharmaceutical substances and drugs. The increasing interest in acetylene and its involvement in organic transformations highlights a fascinating renaissance of this simplest alkyne molecule. Keywords: acetylene; vinylation; cross-coupling; addition reactions; drugs; pharmaceutical substances; biologically active molecule; monomers; polymers 1. Introduction Since the discovery of acetylene, new areas of acetylene chemistry have been continuously developed. The rich scope of chemical transformations available for a C≡C triple bond can be exemplified by coupling [1–5] and addition reactions [6,7].

Primidone (Mysoline) O CH2CH3 O CH2CH3 R H N N H ON O N O H H H Phenobarbital Primidone ("2-deoxyphenobarbital") Structure, Chemistry and Actions: The 2-deoxy analogue of phenobarbital. Primidone is similar to phenobarbital in its chemical properties, except that it is not acidic (not an imide!). It is metabolized by oxidation to phenobarbital and phenylethylmalonamide (PEMA), both of which have anticonvulsant activity (tonic/clonic and partial seizures) and may express their actions by a mechanism similar to the barbiturates (GABA actions). Thus primidone could be considered to be a prodrug: O CH2CH3 H N O CH2CH3 O N O H O CH2CH3 CYP H N H Phenobarbital H CYP N N O H HO H N O O CH CH H 2 3 Primidone H (2-deoxyphenobarbital) H2N Oxidation Intermediate H2N O PEMA Absorption/Distribution: Primidone is readily absorbed from the GI tract yielding peak serum concentrations occur in 3 hours. Peak serum concentrations of PEMA occur after 7 to 8 hours. Phenobarbital appears in plasma after several days of continuous therapy. Protein binding of primidone and PEMA is negligible; phenobarbital is about 50% protein bound. Monitoring of primidone therapy should include plasma level determinations of primidone and phenobarbital. Metabolism/Execretion: PEMA is the major metabolite and is less active than primidone. Phenobarbital formation ranges from 15% to 25%. The plasma half-life of primidone is 5-15 hours. PEMA and phenobarbital have longer half-lives (10-18 hours and 53-140 hours, respectively) and accumulate with chronic use.
