Any reactions with acetylenic compounds should be approached with
caution. I would start by reviewing the procedures mentioned in the
Beilstein abstract for this compound. References to where to find it in
the Hauptwerk can be find in the Aldrich catalog (who sell it
commercially at modest cost). There you will also find references from
the Merck Index & Fieser & Fieser.

Personally, I would purchase this rather than attempting to make it.
They have 2 outlets listed in India, including one in your city.
