Abstract
Bimetallic synergistic catalysis is one of the most effective and powerful strategies for the synthesis of oxazolones, an important species in organic synthesis. In this work, the mechanism of AuCl(PMe3)/AgOTf-Pd(0) ([Au-Pd]) bimetallic catalyst-catalyzed oxazolone synthesis using N-alkynyl carbamates as precursors was studied in detail by DFT calculations and the catalytic performances of a series of bimetallic catalysts were evaluated. The results show that the reaction begins from the [Au]-catalyzed cycloisomerization of N-alkynyl carbamates. After the five-membered intermediate is formed, the [Pd(0)]-catalyzed cycle starts, which contains three steps: oxidation addition, transmetalation, and reductive elimination. The whole reaction belongs to a catalyzed catalysis, and the reductive elimination is the rate-determining step. In the transmetalation process, both the [Pd(0)] catalyst and the ionic bridge are necessary. For the [Au-Pd]-catalyzed process, it is Cl- as the bridge, not OTf-. The cheaper metal compound, AgCl(PMe3), can serve as the alternative of AuCl(PMe3) to co-catalyze with the [Pd(0)] catalyst for the title reaction.

Atom-economic and stereoselective catalytic synthesis of fully substituted enol esters/carbonates of amides in acyclic systems enabled by boron Lewis acid catalysis. Chem Sci 2023; 14:5608-5618.

Abstract
Carboacyloxylation of internal alkynes is emerging as a powerful and straightforward strategy for enol ester synthesis. However, the reported examples come with limitations, including the utilization of noble metal catalysts, the control of regio- and Z/E selectivity, and an application in the synthesis of enol carbonates. Herein, a boron Lewis acid-catalyzed intermolecular carboacyloxylation of ynamides with esters to access fully substituted acyclic enol esters in high yield with generally high Z/E selectivity (up to >96 : 4) is reported. Most importantly, readily available allylic carbonates are also compatible with this difunctionalization reaction, representing an atom-economic, catalytic and stereoselective protocol for the construction of acyclic β,β-disubstituted enol carbonates of amides for the first time. The application of the carboacyloxylation products to decarboxylative allylations provided a ready access to enantioenriched α-quaternary amides. Moreover, experimental studies and theoretical calculations were performed to illustrate the reaction mechanism and rationalize the stereochemistry.

Abstract
The AuTi gaseous molecule was for the first time identified in vapors produced at high temperature from a gold-titanium alloy. The homogeneous equilibria AuTi(g) = Au(g) + Ti(g) (direct dissociation) and AuTi(g) + Au(g) = Au2(g) + Ti(g) (isomolecular exchange) were studied by Knudsen Effusion Mass Spectrometry (KEMS) in the temperature range 2111 -2229 K. The so determined equilibrium constants were treated by the "third-law method" of thermodynamic analysis, integrated with theoretical calculations, and the dissociation energy at 0 K was derived as (AuTi) = 241.0 {plus minus} 5.2 kJ/mol. A similar investigation was carried out for the AuSc and AuFe species, whose dissociation energies were previously reported with large uncertainties. The direct dissociation and the isomolecular exchange with the Au2 dimer were studied in the 1969-2274 and 1842-2092 K ranges for AuSc and AuFe, respectively, and the dissociation energies derived as (AuSc) = 240.4 {plus minus} 6.0 and (AuFe) = 186.2 {plus minus} 4.2 kJ/mol. The experimental bond energies are compared with those calculated here by CCSD(T) with the correlation-consistent basis sets cc-pVXZ(-PP) and cc-pwCVXZ(-PP) (with X = T,Q,5), also in the limit of complete basis set, and with those from CASSCF-MRCI calculations, recently available in the literature. The stronger bond of AuTi compared to AuFe parallels the trend observed in monochlorides. This analogy is shown to be more generally observed in the AuM and MCl diatomic series (with M = first-row transition metal), in accordance with a picture of "pseudo-halogen" bonding behaviour of gold.

Abstract
N-Cbz-α-tosylglycinate ester was combined with aldehydes in a redox-neutral sequence leading to 2-oxazolone-4-carboxylates with high functional group tolerance. While the scope of the method was delineated to primary and secondary aliphatic aldehydes as well as aromatics, no racemization occurred with chiral aldehydes such as Garner's. Hitherto unknown, this process relies on the ambivalent role of N-Cbz-α-tosylglycinate ester acting as a pronucleophile.

Abstract
Oxidative addition of Pd/Au vinylene species with iodobenzene reveals the effect of a strong metallophilic Pd⋯Au interaction on phenyl transmetalation from PdIV to AuI, which allows subsequent reductive elimination of LAuI at Pd and Au.
