This review considers phosphine and N-heterocyclic carbene complexes of gold (I) that are
used as (pre) catalysts for a range of reactions in organic synthesis. These are divided …

The catalytic addition of water to unsaturated C–C or C–N π bonds represent one of the
most important and environmentally sustainable methods to form C–O bonds for the …

Gold catalysis has emerged as an efficient tool in the field of synthetic organic chemistry.
Despite the significant progress, the need for high catalyst loadings has mainly hampered its …

One gold is enough: Mononuclear, homogeneous gold catalysts displayed excellent
catalytic activity on the order of that previously reported for gold nanoparticle catalysts and …

The hybrid Au (I)/Brønsted acid binary catalyst system enables enynes to serve as latent 1, 3-
silyloxydienes capable of participating in the first cascade hydrosiloxylation of an enynyl …

Highly active phosphite gold( i ) catalysts for intramolecular hydroalkoxylation, enyne
cyclization and furanyne cyclization - Chemical Communications (RSC Publishing) DOI:10.1039/C4CC00839A …

The one-pot condensation of glyoxal, two equivalents of cyclohexylamine, and
paraformaldehyde in the presence of aqueous HBF 4 provided a straightforward access to 1 …

A little gold goes a long way: as little as 0.01 mol% of chiral gold phosphate is sufficient to
afford the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of quinolines with high stereoselectivity (up to …

A series of five new mononuclear neutral gold (I) complexes containing N-heterocyclic
carbenes (NHCs) was synthesized and fully characterized by spectroscopic methods. The X …

A (bis) azolium salt [L1-H2] Br2 (5), synthesized following multistep procedures, was
realized to be a suitable platform for accessing the bis (NHC) ligand supported …
