Abstract

During the past few years, gold has emerged as one of the most efficient catalysts for the creation of carbon–carbon and carbon–heteroatom bonds under mild conditions. 1 Besides its unique properties in hydrogenation and selective oxidation, 2 gold is found to be an extraordinary catalyst for the activation of alkynes, allenes, and alkenes. 3 The subsequent inter- or intra-molecular addition of nucleophiles such as alkenyl, oxygen-, and nitrogen-containing functionalities, ...
