Abstract
We describe herein a gold-catalyzed three-component reaction of o-alkynylbenzaldehydes, aryldiazonium salts, and trimethoxybenzene. This process enables the one-pot formation of valuable isoindoles and 1,2-dihydrophathalazines. The regioselectivity of the reaction is dictated by the nature of the aryldiazonium salt. Noticeably, the reaction is performed at room temperature under mild conditions and tolerates a variety of functional groups on both the o-alkynylbenzaldehyde and the aryldiazonium salt. Experimental mechanistic studies suggest that it is catalyzed by arylAu(III) species.

Abstract
We have gold-catalyzed C-N cross-couplings of aryl iodides with aliphatic nitriles. Although nitriles are usually challenging nitrogen cross-coupling partners, they could be activated by base-mediated deprotonation and isomerization. The method utilizes widely available substrates in moderate to good yields to provide various N-aryl compounds. In addition, a similar strategy could be extended to the cross-couplings of aryl iodides with silver cyanate. The protocol features high humidity/air tolerance and works inter- and intramolecularly.

Abstract
In this minireview we survey the challenges and strategies in gold redox catalysis. Gold's reluctance to oxidative addition reactions due to its high redox potential limits its applicability. Initial attempts to overcome this problem focused on the use of sacrificial external oxidants in stoichiometric amounts to bring Au(I) compounds to Au(III) reactive species. Recently, innovative approaches focused on employing hemilabile ligands, which are capable of coordinating to Au(I) and stabilizing square-planar Au(III) intermediates, thus facilitating oxidative addition steps and enabling oxidant-free catalysis. Notable examples include the use of the (P^N) bidendate MeDalphos ligand to achieve various cross-coupling reactions via oxidative addition Au(I)/Au(III). Importantly, hemilabile ligand-enabled catalysis allows merging oxidative addition with π-activation, such as oxy- and aminoarylation of alkenols and alkenamines using organohalides, expanding gold's versatility in C-C and C-heteroatom bond formations and unprecedented cyclizations. Moreover, recent advancements in enantioselective catalysis using chiral hemilabile (P^N) ligands are also surveyed. Strikingly, versatile bidentate (C^N) hemilabile ligands as competitors of MeDalphos have appeared recently, by designing scaffolds where phosphine groups are substituted by N-heterocyclic or mesoionic carbenes. Overall, these approaches highlight the evolving landscape of gold redox catalysis and its tremendous potential in a broad scope of transformations.

Abstract
Cyclopropenes are the smallest unsaturated carbocycles. Removing one substituent from cyclopropenes leads to cyclopropenium cations (C3+ systems, CPCs). Stable aromatic π-type CPCs were discovered by Breslow in 1957 by removing a substituent on the aliphatic position. In contrast, σ-type CPCs-formally accessed by removing one substituent on the alkene-are unstable and relatively unexplored. Here we introduce electrophilic cyclopropenyl-gold(III) species as equivalents of σ-type CPCs, which can then react with terminal alkynes and vinylboronic acids. With catalyst loadings as low as 2 mol%, the synthesis of highly functionalized alkynyl- or alkenyl-cyclopropenes proceeded under mild conditions. A class of hypervalent iodine reagents-the cyclopropenyl benziodoxoles (CpBXs)-enabled the direct oxidation of gold(I) to gold(III) with concomitant transfer of a cyclopropenyl group. This protocol was general, tolerant to numerous functional groups and could be used for the late-stage modification of complex natural products, bioactive molecules and pharmaceuticals.

Abstract
The enormous and widespread use of organoboronic acids has prompted the development of innovative synthetic methodologies to meet the demands on structural diversity and functional group tolerance. The existing photoinduced defunctionalization radical borylation, typically focused on the conversion of one C-X bond (X= Br, I, or other leaving group) into only one C-B bond. Herein, we disclose a divergent radical dechloroborylation reaction enabled by dinuclear gold catalysis with visible light irradiation. A wide range of structurally diverse alkyl boronic, α-chloroboronic, and gem-diboronic esters can be synthesized in moderate to good yields (up to 92%). Its synthetic robustness is further demonstrated on a preparative scale and applied to late-stage diversification of complex molecules. The process hinges on a C-Cl bond relay activation in readily available gem-dichloroalkanes through inner-sphere electron transfer, overcoming the redox potential limits of unreactive alkyl chlorides.

Abstract
A gold-catalyzed C(sp3)-C(sp2) Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction facilitated by ligand-enabled Au(I)/Au(III) redox catalysis was developed. The cross-coupling of alkyl organometallics was first realized in the redox catalytic cycle in gold chemistry, without the use of external oxidants. This gold-catalyzed C(sp3)-C(sp2) coupling reaction allows a variety of alkyl chain and useful methyl trifluoroborates to react with aryl and vinyl iodides under very mild conditions, which provides a new reactivity pattern for challenging couplings with alkyl organometallics.

Abstract
MeDalphos Au(I) complexes featuring aryl, alkynyl, and alkyl groups readily react with electrophilic fluorinating reagents such as N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide and Selectfluor. The ensuing [(MeDalphos)Au(R)F]+ complexes have been isolated and characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy as well as X-ray diffraction. They adopt a square-planar contra-thermodynamic structure, with F trans to N. DFT/IBO calculations show that the N lone pair of MeDalphos assists and directs the transfer of F+ to gold. The [(MeDalphos)Au(Ar)F]+ (Ar = Mes, 2,6-F2Ph) complexes smoothly engage in C-C cross-coupling with PhCCSiMe3 and Me3SiCN, providing direct evidence for the oxidative fluorination/transmetalation/reductive elimination sequence proposed for F+-promoted gold-catalyzed transformations. Moreover, direct reductive elimination to forge a C-F bond at Au(III) was explored and substantiated. Thermal means proved unsuccessful, leading mostly to decomposition, but irradiation with UV-visible light enabled efficient promotion of aryl-F coupling (up to 90% yield). The light-induced reductive elimination proceeds under mild conditions; it works even with the electron-deprived 2,6-difluorophenyl group, and it is not limited to the contra-thermodynamic form of the aryl Au(III) fluoride complexes.

Abstract
Phosphine-boranes do not promote oxidative addition of acyl chlorides to gold, but the phosphine-borane gold triflimide complex [iPr2P(o-C6H4)BCy2]AuNTf2 was found to catalyze the coupling of acyl chlorides and aryl stannanes. The reaction involves aryl/chloride-bridged dinuclear gold(i) complexes as key intermediates, as substantiated by spectroscopic and crystallographic analyses. Similar to Pd(0)/Pd(ii)-catalyzed Stille coupling with phosphine-borane ligands, the gold-catalyzed variant shows complete chemoselectivity for acyl chlorides over aryl iodides and bromides, enabling straightforward access to halogenated aryl ketones.

Abstract
We report the preparation and characterization of the dinuclear AuII hydroxide complex AuII 2(L)2(OH)2 (L=N,N'-bis (2,6-dimethyl) phenylformamidinate) and study its reactivity towards weak X-H bonds. Through the interplay of kinetic analysis and computational studies, we demonstrate that the oxidation of cyclohexadiene follows a concerted proton-coupled electron transfer (cPCET) mechanism, a rare type of reactivity for Au complexes. We find that the Au-Au σ-bond undergoes polarization in the PCET event leading to an adjustment of oxidation levels for both Au centers prior to C(sp3)-H bond cleavage. We thus describe the oxidation event as a valence tautomerism-induced PCET where the basicity of one reduced Au-OH unit provides a proton acceptor and the second more oxidized Au center serves as an electron acceptor. The coordination of these events allows for unprecedented radical-type reactivity by a closed shell AuII complex.

Abstract
The employment of dinuclear Au(I) catalysts in photomediated modern organic transformations has attracted significant attention over the past decade, which commonly demonstrates unique catalytic performance compared with the corresponding mononuclear gold complexes. Nevertheless, detailed mechanisms of dinuclear gold catalysis remain ambiguous, and further mechanistic understanding is highly desirable. Herein, computational studies were carried out to gain mechanistic insights into the photoinduced dinuclear gold-catalyzed divergent dechloroalkylation of gem-dichloroalkanes. Computational results suggest that a proton transfer from the additive, Hantzsch ester (HE), to the base, guanidine, could lead to an ionic pair complex, which is ready to undergo excitation under blue light irradiation to result in the corresponding triplet excited state. Then, the excited complex might undergo oxidative quenching with the dinuclear gold photocatalyst [AuI-AuI]2+, via a single-electron-transfer (SET) step to afford an unusual [Au1/2-Au1/2]+ dinuclear species. The corresponding mononuclear gold catalyst, [AuI]+, however, is not ready to enable the analogous step to give a [Au0] species, which might account for the unique characteristics of dinuclear gold catalysis. Subsequently, the formed [Au1/2-Au1/2]+ intermediate could trigger a Cl-atom transfer from dichloromethane in an inner-sphere manner to furnish a critical chloromethyl radical. Next, the resulting chloromethyl radical could attack the alkenyl moiety of substrates to generate the corresponding alkyl radicals. Then, three possible mechanistic pathways were explored to rationalize the substrate-dependent divergent transformations in this protocol. The main factors responsible for the diversified transformations were discussed.

Abstract
Gold complexes, because of their unique carbophilic nature, have evolved as efficient catalysts for catalyzing various functionalization reactions of C-C multiple bonds. However, the realization of enantioselective transformations via gold catalysis remains challenging due to the geometrical constraints and coordination behaviors of gold complexes. In this context, merged gold/organocatalysis has emerged as one of the intriguing strategies to achieve enantioselective transformations which could not be possible by using a single catalytic system. Historically, in 2009, this field started with the merging of gold with axially chiral Brønsted acids and chiral amines to achieve enantioselective transformations. Since then, based on the unique reactivity profiles offered by each catalyst, several reports utilizing gold in conjunction with various chiral organocatalysts such as amines, Brønsted acids, N-heterocyclic carbenes, hydrogen-bonding and phosphine catalysts have been documented in the literature. This article demonstrates an up-to-date development in this field, especially focusing on the mechanistic interplay of gold catalysts with chiral organocatalysts.

Abstract
There is no experimental evidence of whether such gold-catalyzed aminoauration reactions follow the anti- and/or syn-pathway, and hence, to understand the origin of the selectivity in Au(I)- and Au(III)-catalyzed reactions of alkynes, a thorough mechanistic study was performed using DFT methods. The NBO and ASM analyses provided significant information about the structure-stability-reactivity of the pathway-determining states (PDS). This study further reveals that the oxidation states and geometries of gold, the steric bulk, and the dihedral angles of the PDS direct the mechanistic pathways and control the turnover frequency.

Abstract
The gold π-acid activation under electrochemical conditions is achieved. While EAO allows easy access to gold(III) intermediates over alternative chemical oxidation under mild conditions, the reported examples so far are limited to coupling reactions due to the rapid AuIII reductive elimination. Using aryl hydrazine-HOTf salt as precursors, the π-activation reaction mode was realized through oxidation relay. Both alkene and alkyne di-functionalization were achieved with excellent functional group compatibility and regioselectivity, which extended the versatility and utility of electrochemical gold redox chemistry for future applications.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2023; 62:e202313122. [PMID: 37707123 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202313122] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2023] [Revised: 09/07/2023] [Accepted: 09/14/2023] [Indexed: 09/15/2023]
Abstract
The regioselectivity of C-H functionalization is commonly achieved by directing groups, electronic factors, or steric hindrance, which facilitate the identification of reaction sites. However, such strategies are less effective for reactants such as simple monofluoroarenes due to their relatively low reactivity and the modest steric demands of the fluorine atom. Herein, we present an undirected gold-catalyzed para-C-H arylation of a wide array of monofluoroarenes using air-stable aryl silanes and germanes at room temperature. A high para-regioselectivity (up to 98 : 2) can be realized by utilizing a dinuclear dppm(AuOTs)2 (dppm=bis(diphenylphosphino)methane) as the catalyst and hexafluorobenzene as the solvent. This provides a general and practical protocol for the concise construction of structurally diverse para-arylated monofluoroarenes through C-H activation manner. It features excellent functional group tolerance and a broad substrate scope (>80 examples). Besides, this strategy is also robust for other simple monosubstituted arenes and heteroarenes. Our mechanistic studies and theoretical calculations suggest that para-C-H selectivity arises from highly electrophilic and structurally flexible dinuclear Ar-Au(III)-Au(I) species, coupled with noncovalent interaction induced by hexafluorobenzene.

Abstract
A gold-catalyzed Heck reaction of aryl and styryl iodides with styrenes was developed. The hemilabile P,N-ligand-assisted gold-catalyzed C(sp2)-C(sp2) cross-coupling can synthesize stilbenes and bistyryl complexes, with good functional-group tolerance and mild conditions. The elementary organometallic steps of migratory insertion and β-hydride elimination might be involved in this ligand-enabled Au(I)/Au(III)-catalyzed Heck reaction with styrenes.

Abstract
Herein, we disclose the first report of 1,2-difunctionalization of C-C multiple bonds using electrochemical gold redox catalysis. By adopting the electrochemical strategy, the inherent π-activation and cross-coupling reactivity of gold catalysis are harnessed to develop the oxy-alkynylation of allenoates under external-oxidant-free conditions. Detailed mechanistic investigations such as 31 P NMR, control experiments, mass studies, and cyclic voltammetric (CV) analysis have been performed to support the proposed reaction mechanism.

Abstract
We have developed a C-O cross-coupling reaction of (hetero)aryl iodides with silver carboxylates via a AuI/AuIII catalytic cycle. The transformation featured exclusive chemoselectivity and moisture/air insensitivity. Aromatic and aliphatic (including primary, secondary, and tertiary) silver carboxylates are all suitable substrates. Moreover, this protocol worked well intermolecularly and intramolecularly. Most importantly, good yields were obtained regardless of the substrates' electronic effect and steric hindrance.

Abstract
Activated alkyl halides have been extensively explored to generate alkyl radicals with Ru- and Ir- photocatalysts for 1,2-difunctionalization of alkenes, but unactivated alkyl bromides remain challenging substrates due to their strong reduction potential. Here we report a three-component 1,2-difunctionalization reaction of alkenes, unactivated alkyl bromides and nucleophiles (e.g., amines and indoles) using a trinuclear gold catalyst [Au3 (tppm)2 ](OTf)3 . It can achieve the 1,2-aminoalkylation and 1,2-alkylarylation readily. This protocol has a broad reaction scope and excellent functional group compatibility (>100 examples with up to 96 % yield). It also affords a robust formal [2+2+1] cyclization strategy for the concise construction of pyrrolidine skeletons under mild reaction conditions. Mechanistic studies support an inner-sphere single electron transfer pathway for the successful cleavage of inert C-Br bonds.

Abstract
Multimetallic catalysis is a powerful strategy to access complex molecular scaffolds efficiently from easily available starting materials. Numerous reports in the literature have demonstrated the effectiveness of this approach, particularly for capitalizing on enantioselective transformations. Interestingly, gold joined the race of transition metals very late making its use in multimetallic catalysis unthinkable. Recent literature revealed that there is an urgent need to develop gold-based multicatalytic systems based on the combination of gold with other metals for enabling enantioselective transformations that are not possible to capitalize with the use of a single catalyst alone. This review article highlights the progress made in the field of enantioselective gold-based bimetallic catalysis highlighting the power of multicatalysis for accessing new reactivities and selectivities which are beyond the reach of individual catalysts.

Abstract
We describe a AuI complex of a hemi-labile (C^N) N-heterocyclic carbene ligand that is able to mediate oxidative addition of aryl iodides. Detailed computational and experimental investigations have been undertaken to verify and rationalize the oxidative addition process. Application of this initiation mode has resulted in the first examples of "exogenous oxidant-free" AuI /AuIII catalyzed 1,2-oxyarylations of ethylene and propylene. These demanding yet powerful processes establish these commodity chemicals as nucleophilic-electrophilic building blocks in catalytic reaction design.

Abstract
The field of Au-catalysis has been an area rich with new discoveries due to the unique properties of the lustrous element. In the past decade, developments in Au(I)/Au(III) cross-coupling methodology have been made possible with the use of external oxidants that facilitate the challenging oxidation of Au(I) to Au(III) in a stable and catalytically competent fashion. Until recently, Au-chemistry was not known to undergo catalytic transformations that feature oxidative addition of haloarenes like those that were made famous by transition metals such as Pd and Ni. The discovery that ligand modification could facilitate the oxidative addition of Au(I) with haloorganics to provide Au(III) intermediates that are competent in other areas of catalysis (i.e. Lewis acid catalysis) has revolutionized this field and has led to the invention of new cross-coupling methodology. The recent advances at the leading edge in the emerging field of Au(I)/Au(III) catalysis under redox-neutral conditions are highlighted.

Abstract
Herein, a computational work was carried out to gain mechanistic insights into dual gold and photoredox-catalyzed regioselective thiosulfonylation of alkenes with PhSO2SCF3. Computational results suggest that it is more favorable for the complex of Au(I) with PhSO2SCF3 (INT1), instead of an Au(I) catalyst or individual substrates, to quench the excited *[Ru]II photocatalyst in a single-electron oxidative manner to afford [Ru]III. The complexation of the Au(I) catalyst with PhSO2SCF3 could lead to a substantially lowered energy level of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital, which may be mainly responsible for the feasibility of INT1 in quenching the excited photocatalyst. The resultant single-electron reduced complex, subsequently, is ready to undergo a S-S bond cleavage to form an Au(I)-SCF3 species and a benzenesulfonyl radical. Next, the yielded Au(I)-SCF3 species could undergo single-electron oxidation by [Ru]III to afford an Au(II) intermediate. Subsequently, the binding with an alkyl radical for the formed Au(II) species could occur to further convert to an Au(III) species, from which the final product can be furnished by a reductive elimination step and the Au(I) catalyst is regenerated. Thus, an Au(I)/Au(II)/Au(III)/Au(I) catalytic cycle is suggested to mainly account for the regioselective thiosulfonylation of alkenes.

Abstract
The reactions leading to the formation of C-heteroatom bonds in the coordination sphere of Au(III) complexes are uncommon, and their mechanisms are not well known. This work reports on the synthesis and reductive elimination reactions of a series of Au(III) methyl complexes containing different Au-heteroatom bonds. Complexes [Au(CF3)(Me)(X)(PR3)] (R = Ph, X = OTf, OClO3, ONO2, OC(O)CF3, F, Cl, Br; R = Cy, X = Me, OTf, Br) were obtained by the reaction of trans-[Au(CF3)(Me)2(PR3)] (R = Ph, Cy) with HX. The cationic complex cis-[Au(CF3)(Me)(PPh3)2]OTf was obtained by the reaction of [Au(CF3)(Me)(OTf)(PPh3)] with PPh3. Heating these complexes led to the reductive elimination of MeX (X = Me, Ph3P+, OTf, OClO3, ONO2, OC(O)CF3, F, Cl, Br). Mechanistic studies indicate that these reductive elimination reactions occur either through (a) the formation of tricoordinate intermediates by phosphine dissociation, followed by reductive elimination of MeX, or (b) the attack of weakly coordinating anionic (TfO- or ClO4-) or neutral nucleophiles (PPh3 or NEt3) to the Au-bound methyl carbon. The obtained results show for the first time that the nucleophilic substitution should be considered as a likely reductive elimination pathway in Au(III) alkyl complexes.

Abstract
The mechanism of oxy-arylation/vinylation of alkenes catalyzed by the (MeDalphos)AuCl complex was comprehensively investigated by DFT. (P,N)Au(Ph)2+ and (P,N)Au(vinyl)2+ are key intermediates accounting for the activation of the alkenols and for their cyclization by outer-sphere nucleophilic attack of oxygen. The 5-exo and 6-endo paths have been computed and compared, reproducing the peculiar regioselectivity difference observed experimentally between 4-penten-1-ol, (E) and (Z)-4-hexen-1-ols. Examining the way the alkenol coordinates to gold (more η2 or η1 ) can offer, in some cases, a simple way to predict the favored path of cyclization.

Abstract
A novel method toward a facile synthesis of diverse benzofuran derivates from easily obtained quinols and alkynyl esters has been reported. A gold-catalyzed intermolecular alkoxylation/Claisen rearrangement/condensation cascade was involved. The introduction of difluorodiphenylsilane as a water-trapping reagent in the reaction leads to a higher yield.

Abstract
Herein we report C(sp2)-S cross-coupling reactions of aryl iodides and arylsulfonyl hydrazides under ligand-enabled, Au(I)/Au(III) redox catalysis. This strategy operates under mild reaction conditions, requires no prefunctionalized aryl coupling partner, and works across several aryl iodides. The utility of this protocol is highlighted through the synthesis of various medicinally relevant biaryl sulfones. The reaction mechanism is supported with control experiments, mass spectrometry, and NMR studies.

Abstract
Enantioselective, intermolecular alkene arylamination was achieved through gold redox catalysis. Screening of ligands revealed chiral P,N ligands as the optimal choice, giving alkene aminoarylation with good yields (up to 80 %) and excellent stereoselectivity (up to 99 : 1 er). As the first example of enantioselective gold redox catalysis, this work confirmed the feasibility of applying a chiral ligand at the gold(I) stage, with the stereodetermining step (SDS) at the gold(III) intermediate, thus opening up a new way to conduct gold redox catalysis with stereochemistry control.

Reactant-induced photoactivation of in situ generated organogold intermediates leading to alkynylated indoles via Csp 2-Csp cross-coupling. Nat Commun 2022; 13:2295.

Abstract
Photosensitization of organogold intermediates is an emerging field in catalysis. In this context, an access to 2,3-disubstituted indoles from o-alkynyl aniline and iodoalkyne derivatives via a gold-catalyzed sequence under visible-light irradiation and in the absence of an exogenous photocatalyst was uncovered. A wide scope of the process is observed. Of note, 2-iodo-ynamides can be used as electrophiles in this cross-coupling reaction. The resulting N-alkynyl indoles lend themselves to post-functionalization affording valuable scaffolds, notably benzo[a]carbazoles. Mechanistic studies converge on the fact that a potassium sulfonyl amide generates emissive aggregates in the reaction medium. Static quenching of these aggregates by a vinylgold(I) intermediate yields to an excited state of the latter, which can react with an electrophile via oxidative addition and reductive elimination to forge the key C-C bond. This reactant-induced photoactivation of an organogold intermediate opens rich perspectives in the field of cross-coupling reactions. Dual photo- and metal-catalysis is generally not well-understood when the metal catalyst is a gold complex. Here the authors show that a variation of a known metallaphotoredox annulation is possible without an added photocatalyst, proceeding putatively through a gold–intermediate photosensitization by the aggregate of a potassium amide reactant, and yielding indole derivatives.

Abstract
Presented herein is the first report of enantioselective Au(I)/Au(III) redox catalysis, enabled by a newly designed hemilabile chiral (P,N)-ligand (ChetPhos). The potential of this concept has been demonstrated by the development of enantioselective 1,2-oxyarylation and 1,2-aminoarylation of alkenes which provided direct access to the medicinally relevant 3-oxy- and 3-aminochromans (up to 88% yield and 99% ee). DFT studies were carried out to unravel the enantiodetermining step, which revealed that the stronger trans influence of phosphorus allows selective positioning of the substrate in the C2-symmetric chiral environment present around nitrogen, imparting a high level of enantioselectivity.

Abstract
Transition metal-catalyzed enantioselective functionalization of ubiquitous C-H bonds has proven to be promising field as it offers the construction of chiral molecular complexity in a step- and atom-economical manner. In recent years, gold has emerged as an attractive contender for catalyzing such reactions. The unique reactivities and selectivities offered by gold catalysts have been exploited to access numerous asymmetric transformations based on gold-catalyzed C-H functionalization processes. Herein, this review critically highlights the major advances and discoveries made in the enantioselective C-H functionalization under gold catalysis which is accompanied by mechanistic insights at appropriate places.

Abstract
The first C-SCF3 /SeCF3 cross-coupling reactions using gold redox catalysis [(MeDalphos)AuCl], AgSCF3 or Me4 NSeCF3 , and organohalides as substrates are reported. The new methodology enables a one-stop shop synthesis of aryl/alkenyl/alkynyl trifluoromethylthio- and selenoethers with a broad substrate scope (>60 examples with up to 97 % isolated yield). The method is scalable, and its robustness is evidenced by the late-stage functionalization of various bioactive molecules, which makes this reaction an attractive alternative in the synthesis of trifluoromethylthio- and selenoethers for pharmaceutical and agrochemical research and development.

Abstract
Density functional theory calculations are carried out to better understand the first gold-catalyzed 1,2-diarylation reactions of alkenes reported in the recent literature. The calculations on two representative reactions, aryl alkene/aryl iodide coupling pair (the aryl-I bond is located outside the aryl alkene) versus iodoaryl alkene/indole coupling pair (the aryl-I bond is located in the aryl alkene), confirm that the reaction involves a π-activation mechanism rather than the general migratory insertion mechanism in previously known metal catalysis by Pd, Ni, and Cu complexes. Theoretical results rationalize the regioselectivity of the reactions controlled by the aryl-I bond position (intermolecular or intramolecular) and also the ligand and substituent effects on the reactivity.

Abstract
The development of oxidant-free gold-catalyzed cross coupling reactions involving aryl halides have been hamstrung by the lack of gold catalysts capable of performing oxidative addition at Au(I) centers. Herein, we report the development of novel tricoordinate Au(I) catalysts supported by N,N-bidentate ligands and ligated by phosphine or arsine ligands for C-H functionalization without external oxidants to form biaryls with no homocoupling. The unsymmetrical character of the Au(I) catalyst is critical to facilitating this necessary orthogonal transformation. This study unveils yet another potential of Au(I) catalysis in biaryl synthesis.

Abstract
Chelating P^P and hemilabile P^N ligands were found to trigger the oxidation of Au(i) complexes by o-benzoquinones. The ensuing Au(iii) catecholate complexes have been characterized by NMR spectroscopy, single crystal X-ray diffraction and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. They adopt tetracoordinate square-planar structures. Reactivity studies substantiate the reversibility of the transformation. In particular, the addition of competing ligands such as chloride and alkenes gives back Au(i) complexes with concomitant release of the o-quinone. DFT calculations provide insight about the structure and relative stability of the Au(i) o-quinone and Au(iii) catecholate forms, and shed light on the 2-electron transfer from gold to the o-quinone. Chelating P^P and hemilabile P^N ligands were found to trigger the oxidation of Au(i) complexes by o-benzoquinones.![]()

Abstract
Oxidant-free Au-catalyzed reactions are emerging as a new synthetic tool for innovative organic transformations. Oxidant-free Au-catalyzed reactions are emerging as a new synthetic tool for innovative organic transformations. Still, a deeper mechanistic understanding is needed for a rational design of these processes. Here we describe the synthesis of two Au(i) complexes bearing bidentated hemilabile MIC^N ligands, [AuI(MIC^N)Cl], and their ability to stabilize square-planar Au(iii) species (MIC = mesoionic carbene). The presence of the hemilabile N-ligand contributed to stabilize the ensuing Au(iii) species acting as a five-membered ring chelate upon its coordination to the metal center. The Au(iii) complexes can be obtained either by using external oxidants or, alternatively, by means of feasible oxidative addition with strained biphenylene Csp2–Csp2 bonds as well as with aryl iodides. Based on the fundamental knowledge gained on the redox properties on these Au(i)/Au(iii) systems, we successfully develop a novel Au(i)-catalytic procedure for the synthesis of γ-substituted γ-butyrolactones through the arylation-lactonization reaction of the corresponding γ-alkenoic acid. The oxidative addition of the aryl iodide, which in turn is allowed by the hemilabile nature of the MIC^N ligand, is an essential step for this transformation. A novel hemilabile MIC^N ligand-based Au(i)-catalytic procedure for the synthesis of γ-substituted γ-butyrolactones through the arylation-lactonization reaction of the corresponding γ-alkenoic acid is presented.![]()
