Abstract
Medium-sized ring-containing organic molecules, especially seven-membered rings, are significant structural motifs. However, such frameworks are considered difficult structures to access owing to entropic effects and transannular interactions. Compared to the construction of five and six-membered rings, the synthesis of seven-membered rings can be more challenging through traditional cyclization pathways. Büchner reactions are particularly attractive and efficient synthetic strategies to construct functionalized seven-membered ring products from the benzenoid double bond with carbene. In recent years, the field of transition-metal-catalyzed Büchner ring expansion reactions of alkynes has experienced a speedy development and a diverse array of efficient synthetic procedures have been disclosed under mild experimental conditions, as the synthesis of synthetically challenging seven-membered rings is easily achieved. In this review, we will focus on the recent progress in the transition-metal-catalyzed Büchner reaction of alkynes and the mechanistic rationale is depicted where possible, with the reactions being sorted according to the type of catalyst.

Abstract
Polycyclic N-heterocycles are important structural motifs commonly found in bioactive compounds, however, their selective construction via the cyclization of allenynes remains challenging yet highly desirable. Here we show a homogeneous copper-catalyzed hetero Diels-Alder (HDA) reaction of allenynes with cis-diazenes (PTAD, 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione), allowing the practical and efficient synthesis of a diverse array of valuable polycyclic N-heterocycles. A temperature-controlled and stereocontrolled chemoselectivity of the reaction was observed, leading to the chemodivergent synthesis of tetracyclic pyrrolidines, pentacyclic triazepanes and tricyclic pyrrolidines. Compared with related Au-catalyzed cyclization of allenynes, this copper catalysis achieves cyclization of allenynes terminating in C-N bond formation via the HDA reaction.

Abstract
General access to highly valuable seven-membered rings via Büchner-type reaction remains a formidable challenge. Here we report a Cu-catalyzed intermolecular oxidation of alkynes using N-oxides as oxidants, which enables expedient preparation of valuable benzo[6,7]azepino[2,3-b]quinolines and pyridine-based diones. Importantly, in contrast to the well-established gold-catalyzed intermolecular alkyne oxidation, the dissociated pyridine or quinoline partner could be further utilized to construct N-heterocycles in this system and the reaction most likely proceeds by a Büchner-type ring expansion pathway. A mechanistic rationale for this cascade cyclization is supported by DFT calculations.

Abstract
In recent years, gold-catalyzed cycloadditions of allenes, especially those involving a gold carbene intermediate, have received significant interest, as they avoid the utilization of potentially hazardous and inaccessible diazo compounds as starting materials for carbene generation. Cycloaddition reactions consisting of the uncomplicated addition of two or more unsaturated functional groups are one of the most efficient synthetic methodologies for the rapid assembly of carbo- and heterocyclic structures from simple acyclic precursors. In this review, we introduce an overview of the advances in the gold-catalyzed cycloaddition of allenes via a metal carbene intermediate and categorize these reactions according to the reaction types of the cycloadditions.

Abstract
In recent years, transition-metal-catalyzed tandem cyclization reactions of alkynes, especially those involving a metal carbene intermediate, have received worthwhile interest, as this type of reaction does not require the use of risky and potentially explosive diazo compounds as starting materials for carbene generation. A significant and general strategy for the stereospecific synthesis of 5-membered cycles is Nazarov cyclization based on the 4π-conrotatory electrocyclization of a conjugated pentadienyl cation to afford a cyclopentenyl cation. In this review, we introduce an overview of recent advances in the transition-metal-catalyzed Nazarov cyclization of alkynes via a metal carbene intermediate, and categorize these reactions according to the structure of the metal carbene. Our aim is to accelerate advancements in this enchanting area of research.

Abstract
A gold(I)-catalyzed enantioselective thioallylation of propiolates with allyl sulfides is described. The key mechanistic element is a sulfonium-induced Claisen rearrangement which helps minimize the allyl dissociation and render higher enantioselectivity. This protocol features remarkable scope of the allyl moiety, allowing enantiocontrolled synthesis of all-carbon quaternary centers, and exhibits exceptional functional group compatibility with many Lewis bases and π-bonds. This intermolecular variant of Claisen rearrangement forges both C-S and C-C bonds concomitantly, providing efficient access to interesting optically active organosulfur compounds which can be transformed further through the vinyl sulfide as a functional handle. The rate of the reaction was zeroth order with respect to allyl sulfides, which suggested a reversible inhibition, providing a resting state for the catalyst. The Hammett plot displayed a correlation with σp values, suggesting a turnover-limiting sigmatropic rearrangement where decreased electron-density on sulfur accelerated the rearrangement.

Abstract
Three- and four-membered rings, widespread motifs in nature and medicinal chemistry, have fascinated chemists ever since their discovery. However, due to energetic considerations, small rings are often difficult to assemble. In this regard, homogeneous gold catalysis has emerged as a powerful tool to construct these highly strained carbocycles. This review aims to provide a comprehensive summary of all the major advances and discoveries made in the gold-catalyzed synthesis of cyclopropanes, cyclopropenes, cyclobutanes, cyclobutenes, and their corresponding heterocyclic or heterosubstituted analogs.

Abstract
Although N-alkenoxyheteroarenium salts have been widely used as umpoled synthons with nucleophilic (hetero)arenes, the use of electron-poor heteroarenes has remained unexplored. To overcome the inherent electron deficiency of quinolinium salts, a traceless nucleophile-triggered strategy was designed, wherein the quinolinium segment is converted into a dearomatized intermediate, thereby allowing simultaneous C8-functionalization of quinolines at room temperature. Experimental and computational studies support the traceless operation of a nucleophile, which enables the previously inaccessible transformation of N-alkenoxyheteroarenium salts. Remarkably, the generality of this strategy has been further demonstrated by broad applications in the regioselective C-H functionalization of other electron-deficient heteroarenes such as phenanthridine, isoquinoline, and pyridine N-oxides, offering a practical tool for the late-stage functionalization of complex biorelevant molecules.

Abstract
Recent rapid development in homogeneous gold catalysis affords an alternative and particularly thriving strategy for the generation of gold carbenes through gold-catalyzed oxidation/amination/cycloaddition of alkynes, while it avoids the employment of hazardous and potentially explosive diazo compounds as starting materials for carbene generation. In addition to facile and secure operation, gold carbenes generated in this strategy display good chemoselectivity distinct from other metal carbenes produced from the related diazo approach. N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) gold is a special metal complex that can be used as ancillary ligands, which provides enhanced stability and can also act as an efficient chiral directing group. In this review, we will present an overview of these recent advances in alkyne oxidation/amination/cycloaddition by highlighting their specificity and applicability, aiming to facilitate progress in this very exciting area of research.

Abstract
N-Heterocyclic carbenes have found many applications in modern metal catalysis, due to the formation of stable metal complexes, and organocatalysis. Among a myriad of N-heterocyclic carbene metal complexes, gold complexes have gained a lot of attention due to their unique propensity for the activation of carbon-carbon multiple bonds, allowing many useful transformations of alkynes, allenes, and alkenes, inaccessible by other metal complexes. The present review summarizes synthetic efforts towards the preparation of chiral N-heterocyclic gold(I) complexes exhibiting C2 and C1 symmetry, as well as their applications in enantioselective catalysis. Finally, the emerging area of rare gold(III) complexes and their preliminary usage in asymmetric catalysis is also presented.
