A variety of 4,5-dihydrofuro[2,3-b]azocin-6-one derivatives were expediently assembled through Au(I)-catalyzed cyclization and 2-(tert-butyl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethylguanidine (BTMG)-mediated [4+4] annulation reactions of enyne-amides and ynones. The reactions exhibit high efficiency with excellent regio- and diastereoselectivity. A broad spectrum of substrates was utilized. The products with an eight-membered ring might be useful in biological chemistry and medicinal science. Furthermore, the products could be facilely converted into various derivatives.
