Abstract
Sulfenylated propargylic carboxylates were introduced to investigate the influence of sulfur substitution in gold-catalyzed alkyne activation pathways. Regiodivergent gold-catalyzed rearrangement and indole capture reactions proceed under mild conditions to give functionalized indole products bearing sulfenylated (Z)-enol carboxylate motifs. Pathways involving both 1,2- and 1,3-carboxylate migrations are achieved selectively, with indole being added in a 1,4 relationship to the sulfenyl group in each case. High levels of selectivity are influenced by the catalyst system, counterion, and carboxylate group.

Abstract
The regiodivergent synthesis of 4- and 5-sulfenyl oxazoles from 1,4,2-dioxazoles and alkynyl thioethers has been achieved. Gold-catalysed conditions are used to favour the formation of 5-sulfenyl oxazoles via β-selective attack of the nitrenoid relative to the sulfenyl group. In contrast, 4-sulfenyl oxazoles are formed by α-selective reaction under Brønsted acid conditions from the same substrates. The nature of stabilising gold-sulfur interactions have been investigated by natural bond orbital analysis, showing that the S→Au interactions are significantly stronger in the intermediate that favours the 5-sulfenyl oxazoles. A kinetic survey identifies catalyst inhibition processes. This study into the regiodivergent methods includes the development of telescoped annulation-oxidation protocols for regioselective access to oxazole sulfoxides and sulfones.

Abstract
A practical and efficient method to access polysubstituted aryl sulfides has been discovered via a Lewis acid-catalyzed reaction between alkynyl sulfide and 2-pyrone, involving a Diels-Alder/retro-Diels-Alder pathway. Alkynyl sulfide as an electron-rich dienophile and 2-pyrones as electron-poor dienes are conjunctively transformed into a series of polysubstituted aryl sulfides with broad functional group compatibility in good to excellent yields (40 examples, 43-88% yield). The robustness and practicality of the protocol has been demonstrated through gram-scale synthesis and the ease of transformation of the resulting products.

Abstract
Here, we report the regiospecific hydrothiolation of electron-rich thioalkynes with exclusive stereoselectivity facilitated by an organic base, which could proceed exceedingly fast under ambient atmosphere and room temperature, affording β trans addition products in up to nearly quantitative yields. The dual nature of the sulfur atom in attracting and donating electrons is supposed to be pivotal in determining the regio- and stereoselectivity. This system tolerates a wide range of thiols and thioalkynes and shows great potential in polymer synthesis.

Abstract
A direct ring-closing strategy involving a less facile 7-endo-dig carbacyclization of o-alkynylaniline derivatives for the synthesis of benzo[b]azepines has been presented. The trivial well-documented 5-endo-dig cyclization in o-alkynylaniline derivatives due to high nucleophilicity of nitrogen has been overcome by using their vinylogous amides under gold catalysis to access a wide array of benzo[b]azepines in an atom economical way with excellent functional group compatibility. Deuterium scrambling experiments and DFT studies favor a mechanism involving stabilizing conformational change of the initially formed seven-membered vinyl gold intermediate through a key cyclopropyl gold carbene intermediate and its subsequent protodeauration mediated by the counter anion.

Abstract
Gold-catalyzed reactions between sulfenamides and terminal alkynes proceeded via cis-insertion of alkynes into the N-S bond in sulfenamides, affording the corresponding β-sulfenylenamines in yields up to 90%. Mechanistic studies revealed that the reactions proceeded via nucleophilic attack of the sulfenamide nitrogen atom on the π-activated alkyne, followed by tosylate-assisted intermolecular transfer of the sulfenyl group.

Abstract
The present work focuses on a theoretical investigation of mechanistic features, chemoselectivity, regioselectivity, and effect of substituents in the gold-catalyzed reactions of alkynyl thioethers and isoxazoles. The DFT calculations reveal that the nucleophilic attack of isoxazole to a β-position of catalyst-bound ynamide forms a vinyl intermediate. This undergoes cleavage of the N-O isoxazole bond and isomerizes to form an α-imino α'-sulfenyl gold carbene complex with stabilization of the Au-S interaction. For 3,5-dimethylisoxazole, the reaction follows a formal [3 + 2] cycloaddition pathway and a 1,3-H migration to give the pyrrole products. Replacement of 3,5-dimethylisoxazole by 3,5-dimethyl-4-phenylisoxazole leads to the formation of deacylative annulation products and desulfenylated 3-acylated pyrroles. Reactions with 4-methyl-3,5-diphenylisoxazoles induce the formation of N-acylated pyrroles and desulfenylated 3-acylated pyrroles. For the minor pathway, the α-addition and 1,2-S migration result in sulfur-substituted β-keto enamide derivatives. In addition, the unique features of regio- and chemoselectivity were rationalized by the distortion and interaction analysis. Apart from fully rationalizing the experimental results, the theoretical DFT data give an important support for comprehending related types of reaction mechanisms.

Abstract
The nature of solvent is a key factor for stereoselective mono- and bis-thiolation of (E)-β-iodovinyl sulfones with thiols under basic conditions. A novel and unprecedented vicinal bisthiolation of (E)-β-iodovinyl sulfones with thiols under the influence of K2CO3/DMSO at room temperature for quick assembly of (E)-1,2-dithio-1-alkenes is presented. Solvent-induced stereoselective monosulfenylation of (E)-β-iodovinyl sulfones with thiols has also been established for the synthesis of both (E)- and (Z)-1,2-thiosulfonylethenes in MeCN and MeOH, respectively. Moreover, K2CO3-mediated desulfonylative-sulfenylation of (Z)-1,2-thiosulfonylethenes with thiols in DMSO furnished unsymmetrical (Z)-1,2-dithio-1-alkenes for the first time. The solvent-dependent versatile reactivity of (E)-β-iodovinyl sulfones has been successfully explored to provide a set of (E)-/(Z)-1,2-dithio-1-alkenes and (E)-/(Z)-1,2-thiosulfonyl-1-alkenes in good to high yields with excellent stereoselectivities. Notably, this operationally simple process utilizes a broad substrate scope with good functional group tolerance and compatibility. The efficacy of the process has been proven for gram-scale reactions, and plausible mechanistic models are outlined on the basis of experimental results and control experiments.

Abstract
A gold-catalysed cycloisomerization of 1,5-diynes is described, which offers a selective approach to access 1,3,4-trisubstituted pyrroles. In this reaction, the cationic gold catalyst activates the ynamide moiety, initiating the cycloisomerization to produce the pyrrole core, and H2O acts as an external nucleophile to trap the vinyl cationic species, thus leading to the formation of 1,3,4-trisubstituted pyrroles with high selectivity.

Abstract
The combination of a nucleophilic nitrene equivalent, a triple bond and a π-acid catalyst has underpinned numerous efficient transformations for the preparation of azacycles. This personal account details our efforts in developing an annulation strategy. Adding a nucleophilic nitrenoid to an activated alkyne can generate carbenoid character that is then quenched by a cyclisation onto the nitrenoid substituent. The use and development of N-acyl and N-heterocyclic pyridinium-N-aminides as 1,3-N,O and 1,3-N,N-dipole equivalents is discussed in the context of oxazole and heterocycle-fused imidazole formation, respectively. The resulting processes are highly efficient, practically straightforward, and tolerate considerable structural and functional group variation. Our use of heteroatom-substituted alkynes as enabling tools for reaction discovery is discussed. The reactivity accessed from the strong donor-like properties of ynamides is complemented by that obtained from alkynyl thioethers, which are emerging as interesting substrates for π-acid catalysis.
