Application

Gold Catalysts — 21st Century ′Gold Rush′
Catalyst employed in the cyclization of O-propargyl carbamates to alkylideneoxazolidinones via a 5-exo-digonal pathway at room temperature. Also catalyzes the cycloisomerization of enynes containing a cyclic olefin into highly-fused, polycyclic dienes at room temperature.
Reagent is used with cocatalytic halide abstraction agent to activate π-systems toward addition by heteroatom and carbon nucleophiles.
