“…Inspired by Hashmi's elegant work and as part of our on‐going interest in the reactivity of gold vinylcarbene precursors toward unsaturated organosilicon reagents, [9] we became interested in exploring the behavior of propargyl esters toward alkynylsilanes under gold catalysis. We hypothesized that the bulkiness of the silyl group in the alkynylsilane, which might hinder a cyclization reaction, together with the ability of the C‐Si σ‐bond to stabilize an adjacent carbocation (the so‐called β‐silicon effect), [10] could provide a favorable scenario for alternative pathways.…”

Gold‐Catalyzed Reaction of Propargyl Esters and Alkynylsilanes: Synthesis of Vinylallene Derivatives through a Twofold 1,2‐Rearrangement

The reaction of propargyl esters with alkynylsilanes under gold catalysis provides vinylallene derivatives through consecutive [1,2]‐acyloxy/[1,2]‐silyl rearrangements. Good yields, full atom‐economy, broad substrate scope, easy scale‐up and low catalyst loadings are salient features of this novel transformation. Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations suggest a reaction mechanism involving initial [1,2]‐acyloxy rearrangement to generate a gold vinylcarbene intermediate which upon regioselective attack of the alkynylsilane affords a vinyl cation which undergoes a type II‐dyotropic rearrangement involving the silyl group and the metal fragment. Preliminary results on the enantioselective version of this transformation are also disclosed.

“…Additionally, the major formation of the acyclic product 4 when cyclopentanone‐derived silyl enol ether 2 k was used can also confirm the preference for oxonium intermediates B’ (Scheme 6 ) Thus, silyl oxonium intermediate B ’ can evolve to the [4+2] cycloaddition product 3 , or through an alternative pathway, involving silyldeauration, [24] leading to vinyl silane E that in the work up conditions would undergo protodesilylation and double bond isomerization to give the acyclic cyclopentanone derivative 4 .…”

Gold(I)-catalyzed formal [4 + 2] cycloaddition of Oaryl ynol ethers 1 and enol ethers 2 is described. This intermolecular reaction between two electron-rich unsaturated systems takes place, under mild conditions, in the presence of 5 mol% [IPrAu(CH 3 CN)]SbF 6 as catalyst giving chromene derivatives with good yields. The cycloaddition is completely regio-and stereoselective, as well as versatile for both reactives. Silyl enol ethers can also react in the same way and under the same reaction conditions with quantitative yields. A plausible mechanism through a selective addition of the enol ether to the alkyne gold activated complex followed by an intramolecular aromatic electrophilic substitution is proposed. Several experimental results support the presence of a cationic oxonium intermediate prior to the aromatic substitution. The reaction represents a new entry to the chromene core.
