Cationic Au(I)-Catalyzed Cycloisomerization of Aromatic Enynes for the Synthesis of Substituted Naphthalenes

Abstract
A cationic Au(I) complex catalyzed the cycloisomerization of aromatic enynes that possess a substituent on their alkyne terminus. Cyclization of the 6-endo-dig type proceeded dominantly to give 1,3-di- and 1,2,3-trisubstituted naphthalenes.
