Article Abstract
An efficient, highly atom economic synthesis of hitherto unknown spirocyclic pyrazolidines in a one-pot process was developed. The gold-catalyzed three-component coupling of alkynols, hydrazines and aldehydes or ketones likely proceeds via cycloisomerization of the alkynol to an exocyclic enol ether and subsequent [3 + 2]-cycloaddition of an azomethine ylide. A library of 29 derivatives with a wide range of functional groups was synthesized in up to 97% yield. With this new method, every position in the final product can be substituted which renders the method ideal for applications in combinatorial or medicinal chemistry.

A highly regioselective gold-catalyzed single oxygen transfer reaction, involving internal trifluoromethylated alkynes, pyridine -oxides, and nitriles, has been developed. The alkyne-attached CF-moiety functions through an inductive mechanism to direct -nucleophilic attack specifically to the β-alkyne position. This three-component transformation yields a diverse array of valuable 4-trifluoromethylated oxazoles in high yields (30 examples; up to 96%) under relatively mild gold-catalyzed conditions, demonstrating significant tolerance for various functional groups.

In the presence of Hantzsch ester and with JohnPhosAuCl/AgOMs as catalysts, a series of indole-fused iminosugars were obtained in good yields by the intramolecular reductive coupling reaction of iminosugar -glycoside, in which the terminal alkyne could be coupled with indole and further reduced to methyl. The substrates of iminosugar -glycosides were conveniently prepared by a three-component reaction of tosylated/mesylated sugar, propargylamine, and indole derivatives. The advantages of this protocol are its simplicity and efficiency in constructing the complex indole-fused iminosugars.

We describe herein a gold-catalyzed three-component reaction of -alkynylbenzaldehydes, aryldiazonium salts, and trimethoxybenzene. This process enables the one-pot formation of valuable isoindoles and 1,2-dihydrophathalazines. The regioselectivity of the reaction is dictated by the nature of the aryldiazonium salt.

Activated alkyl halides have been extensively explored to generate alkyl radicals with Ru- and Ir- photocatalysts for 1,2-difunctionalization of alkenes, but unactivated alkyl bromides remain challenging substrates due to their strong reduction potential. Here we report a three-component 1,2-difunctionalization reaction of alkenes, unactivated alkyl bromides and nucleophiles (e.g.

A gold-catalyzed oxidative three-component reaction of terminal alkynes with alcohols and quinone monoimines has been disclosed, affording α-ketoacetals in good to excellent yields. By using quinone monoimines as electrophiles for the interception of the generated gold enolate intermediate, this one-pot process provides an unprecedented method for the polyfunctionalization of terminal alkynes through an oxidation-oxyalkylation-aryloxylation sequence, installing three oxygen atoms on the C-C triple bond.
