Abstract

In this last chapter, we will question the intermediacy of gold acetylides in the gold(I)-catalyzed cycloisomerization of 1,6-enynes, as such intermediates have been postulated to intervene in some gold-catalyzed processes involving free alkynes. This study has been conducted as a joint project with mass spectrometry specialists and theoretical chemists.
