Abstract
The catalyst-directed divergent synthesis, commonly termed as "divergent catalysis", has emerged as a promising technique as it allows chartering of structurally distinct products from common substrates simply by modulating the catalyst system. In this regard, gold complexes emerged as powerful catalysts as they offer unique reactivity profiles as compared to various other transition metal catalysts, primarily due to their salient electronic and geometrical features. Owing to the tunable soft π-acidic nature, gold catalysts not only evolved as superior contenders for catalyzing the reactions of alkynes, alkenes, and allenes but also, more intriguingly, have been found to provide divergent reaction pathways over other π-acid catalysts such as Ag, Pt, Pd, Rh, Cu, In, Sc, Hg, Zn, etc. The recent past has witnessed a renaissance in such examples wherein, by choosing gold catalysts over other transition metal catalysts or by fine-tuning the ligands, counteranions or oxidation states of the gold catalyst itself, a complete reactivity switch was observed. However, reviews documenting such examples are sporadic; as a result, most of the reports of this kind remained scattered in the literature, thereby hampering further development of this burgeoning field. By conceptualizing the idea of "Divergent Gold Catalysis (DGC)", this review aims to consolidate all such reports and provide a unified approach necessary to pave the way for further advancement of this exciting area. Based on the factors governing the divergence in product formation, an explicit classification of DGC has been provided. To gain a fundamental understanding of the divergence in observed reactivities and selectivities, the review is accompanied by mechanistic insights at appropriate places.

Abstract
Previously, we developed a gold-catalyzed cycloisomerization of dienediynes to synthesize the fused 6,7,5-tricyclic compounds. This reaction involves aliphatic C-H functionalization under mild conditions with high regio- and diastereoselectivities. Herein, we present a combined density functional theory (DFT) and experimental study to understand its mechanism. The reaction starts with a 6-endo-dig cyclization to generate a cis-1-alkynyl-2-alkenylcyclopropane. Then, a Cope rearrangement takes place to give a seven-membered-ring allene intermediate, whose central carbon atom possesses vinyl cation character and thus is highly reactive toward aliphatic C-H insertion. After the C-H insertion, two successive [1,2]-hydride shifts then occur to give the tricyclic product and to complete the catalytic cycle. Notably, steric effect induced by the bulky ligand is found to be important for the diastereocontrol in the C-H insertion step. DFT calculations suggested that the malonate-tethered substrate utilized in our previous work may undergo an undesired 5-exo-dig cyclization under gold catalysis, which could be the reason why the desired fused 6,7,5-tricarbocyclic product was not generated. These mechanistic insights then guided us to design substrates with a shortened carbon tether in the present work to inhibit the exo-dig cyclization so that the tandem cyclopropanation/Cope rearrangement/C-H functionalization could occur to construct polycarbocycles containing a seven-membered ring. This prediction was supported by new experiments, providing a new strategy to access fused 5,7,5-tricyclic and 5,7,6,6-tetracyclic carbocycles. In addition, how the substituents affect the chemoselectivity was also investigated.

Abstract
A synthetic method to prepare 1H-indenes and partially hydrogenated methanonaphtho[1,2-c]furan-1,3(4H)-diones from gold(i)-catalysed 1,4-enyne acetate cycloisomerisation and oxidation or Diels–Alder reaction with maleic anhydride is described. The proposed mechanism involves Rautenstrauch rearrangement of the 1,4-enyne motif to give an insitu formed 1,3-cyclopentadiene intermediate. This is followed by 6-endo-dig cyclisation of the cyclic adduct and oxidation to give the aromatic carbocycle or Diels–Alder reaction with maleic anhydride to afford the bridged furan product.

Abstract
A detailed theoretical analysis of the mechanism and chemoselectivity for gold(I)-catalyzed reaction of o-(alkynyl)styrene containing an isopropyl and a methyl at the terminal position of the alkene has been reported in this work. Two different counterions (SbF6 - and OTs-) were studied as model catalysts. According to our calculation, for SbF6 -, the reaction pathway is more prone to direct 1,2-H shifts (isopropyl H) than the elimination and ring expansion pathway. However, an elimination pathway affords the indenyl derivative by forming p-toluenesulfonic acid (HOTs), which may be the main pathway in the presence of OTs-. The chemoselectivity for the title reaction is mainly determined by the electronic effect of the counterion and the substituent rather than the steric effect. In other words, less basic SbF6 - mainly provides the charge separation effect rather than assisted proton elimination. However, the more basic OTs- mainly assist proton elimination through the formation of HOTs. In addition to the good agreement with the experimental data, the density functional theory results also provide a significant contribution to the understanding of the reaction mechanism.

Abstract
An efficient chiral Brønsted acid-catalyzed enantioselective dehydrative Nazarov-type electrocyclization (DNE) of electron-rich aryl- and 2-thienyl-β-amino-2-en-1-ols is described. The 4π conrotatory electrocyclization reaction affords access to a wide variety of the corresponding 1 H-indenes and 4 H-cyclopenta[ b]thiophenes in excellent yields of up to 99% and enantiomeric excess (ee) values of up to 99%. Experimental and computational studies based on a proposed intimate contact ion-pair species that is further assisted by hydrogen bonding between the amino group of the substrate cation and chiral catalyst anion provide insight into the observed product enantioselectivities.

Abstract
Gold(I) complexes bearing sterically demanding phosphine ligands such as tBuXphos catalyze the cascade Rautenstrauch rearrangement/[4 + 3] cycloaddition of 1-ethynyl-2-propenyl esters. The reaction provides an efficient and straightforward route to bicyclo[3.2.1]octa-3,6-dienes with high regio- and stereoselectivity. The formation of the [4 + 3] cycloadducts likely proceeds through the cycloaddition of a gold(I) carbenoid/gold-stabilized allyl cation intermediate with cyclopentadiene arising from Rautenstrauch rearrangement.

Abstract
A synthetic method for the efficient assembly of benzo[c]carbazole derivatives that relies on silica gel-activated benzoic acid-mediated cycloaromatization of 1H-indol-2-yl propargyl benzoates under atmospheric conditions is described. Robust with a variety of substitution patterns tolerated, the reaction provides a one-step strategy to construct a member of the N-heterocycles family in good to excellent yields. A tentative mechanism is proposed in which the cycloaromatization process is thought to involve a Brønsted acid-mediated formal 1,3-acyloxy migration/6π-electrocyclization pathway.
