Furans of gold: The first example of a gold-catalyzed intermolecular addition of carbon ylides to terminal alkynes is reported (see scheme; DCE=dichloroethane, Tf=trifluoromethanesulfonyl). Subsequent intramolecular trapping of the generated gold carbene completes a formal [3+2] cycloaddition, which represents a novel synthesis of 2,4-disubstituted furans. Copyright
