Abstract
A one-pot synthesis of ring-fused, α-hydrazineyl-2-cyclopentenone derivatives is achieved by a gold(I)-catalyzed Rautenstrauch/hetero Diels-Alder/ring opening tandem reaction of suitable propargyl esters. By mixing the latter with a dialkylazodicarboxylate in the presence of a gold(I) catalyst, the 1,2-acyloxy migration/cyclization process (Rautenstrauch reaction) leads to cyclopentadienyl ester intermediates which are trapped by the heterodienophile present in situ. This provides strained intermediates which spontaneously undergo highly regioselective ring opening by a retro aza-Michael reaction promoted by the gold(I) catalyst, eventually yielding the target compounds. Six- and seven-membered ring-fused cyclopentenones bearing a pendant α-hydrazineyl moiety can be obtained in moderate to excellent yield (50-98%) by this approach, with a minimal erosion of the initial optical purity when using enantioenriched substrates.

Abstract
The gold-catalyzed reaction of 2-en-4-ynones with alkynylsilanes provides fully substituted allene derivatives bearing furyl and silyl groups. This transformation would involve generation of a gold furyl carbene intermediate, which regioselectively undergoes a nucleophilic attack by the alkynylsilane at the electrophilic carbene carbon atom with the formation of a β-gold vinyl cation species. The subsequent release of the gold catalyst, accompanied by a 1,2-silyl shift, leads to the formation of tetrasubstituted allene products.

Abstract
We have developed a straightforward and rapid methodology for the synthesis of tetrasubstituted allenes bearing carboxylic acids in the 1,3-position through the gold(I)-catalyzed nucleophilic addition of bis(trimethylsilyl)ketene acetals to ynones. The reaction was evaluated with several substrates, and 21 allenes were obtained in moderate to good yields. Using DFT calculations, we studied the mechanism of the reaction, which suggested a nucleophilic 1,4-addition pathway. The potential of allenes to act as a source of highly functionalized lactones was also explored.

Abstract
Herein we report the first example of a Pd-catalyzed highly selective three-component reaction of alkynyl-1,4-diol dicarbonates, organoboronic acids, and malonate anions for the efficient synthesis of trisubstituted 2,3-allenyl malonates not readily available by the known protocols. The reaction demonstrates an excellent regio- and chemo-selectivity for both the oxidative addition referring to the two C-O bonds and the subsequent coupling with the nucleophile with a remarkable functional group compatibility. A series of control experiments confirm a unique mechanism involving β-O elimination forming alka-1,2,3-triene and the subsequent insertion of its terminal C[double bond, length as m-dash]C bond into the Ar-Pd bond.

Abstract
A nickel-catalyzed three-component tandem radical cyclization reaction of aryl bromides with 1,3-enynes and aryl boric acids to construct γ-lactam-substituted allene derivatives has been described. This protocol provides lactam alkyl radicals through the free radical cyclization process, which can be effectively used to participate in the subsequent multicomponent coupling reaction so that 1,3-enynes could directly convert into corresponding poly-substituted allene compounds. In addition, this efficient method enjoys a broad substrate scope and provides a series of 1,5-difunctionalized allenes in a one-pot reaction.

Abstract
The Schmidt rearrangement, a reaction that enables C-C or C-H σ bond cleavage and nitrogen insertion across an aldehyde or ketone substrate, is one of the most important and widely used synthetic tools for the installation of amides and nitriles. However, such a reaction frequently requires volatile, potentially explosive, and highly toxic azide reagents as the nitrogen donor, thus limiting its application to some extent. Here, we show a Schmidt-type reaction where aryldiazonium salts act as the nitrogen precursor and in-situ-generated cyclopenta-1,4-dien-1-yl acetates serve as pronucleophiles from gold-catalyzed Nazarov cyclization of 1,3-enyne acetates. Noteworthy is that cycloketone-derived 1,3-enyne acetates enabled ring-expansion relay to access a series of 2-pyridone-containing fused heterocycles, in which nonsymmetric cycloketone-derived counterparts demonstrated high regioselectivity. Aside from investigating the scope of this Schmidt-type reaction, mechanistic details of this transformation are provided by performing systematic theoretical calculations.

Abstract
A new mechanistic pathway of propargylic alcohol activation by gold(I) catalysis has been proposed toward the efficient synthesis of N-protected pyrroles, 5,6-dihydropyridin-3(4H)-ones from N-protected 5-aminopent-2-yn-1-ol, and 5-aminopent-2-yn-1-ol. Control experiments support that the reaction proceeded via the neighboring group participation of the oxygen atom of propargylic alcohol to form an allene oxide intermediate where the nucleophilic heteroatom attacks intramolecularly. Further, this methodology is successfully extrapolated toward the atom-economic synthesis of hydroxyalkyl indoles and benzofurans. The short reaction time of 30 s, low catalyst loading of 0.5 mol %, high yield, variation in the substrate scope, and procedurally simple open-flask reaction conditions make this methodology highly applied.

We report the regioselective synthesis of silyl-substituted
cyclopentadienyl
esters through gold-catalyzed migratory cycloisomerization of silyl-substituted
vinylallenes. This transformation is proposed to proceed through a
perfectly orchestrated sequence of events including Nazarov-like cyclization
and several silyl and hydrogen rearrangements. Furthermore, exploiting
the multifaceted nature of the gold catalyst, we have also identified
suitable conditions for the synthesis of these cyclopentadienes in
a more straightforward manner through gold-catalyzed reaction of propargyl
esters and alkynylsilanes.
