Abstract

(Chemical equation presented) The gold rush: A cationic gold (I) complex, supported by a CAAC ligand, promotes the intramolecular addition of N-H or N-Me bonds (from ammonium salts or tertiary amines, respectively) to carbon-carbon triple bonds; the same complex allows for the isolation of vinylgold intermediates. X= (C₆F₅)₄B. CAAC = cyclic (alkyl) (amino)carbene.
