Striking gold: A series of variously functionalized propynyl arenes was smoothly converted into indan-2-ones by a new gold(I)-catalyzed oxidative cyclization process. [LAu]NTf2 (Tf=trifluoromethanesulfonyl) is a superior catalyst both in terms of yield and kinetics for the present transformation. Copyright

4-Aminophenyl cations (expediently generated by photolysis of 4-chloroaniline and its N,N-dimethyl derivative by photolysis in MeCN) added to enamines and gave the corresponding α-(4-aminophenyl) ketones in satisfactory yields. The yields of the same ketones were increased when silyl enol ethers were used in the place of enamines. The α-arylation of silyl enol ethers of aldehydes occurred with lower yields and only with the N,N-dimethyl derivative. The procedure was successful with ketene silyl acetals giving in a single step a good yield of α-(4-aminophenyl)propionic(acetic) esters, known intermediates for the preparation of analgesic compounds. The reaction of the aryl cation with Danishefsky's diene gave the arylated β-methoxy enone. The method is complementary to the recently developed palladium-catalyzed α-arylation and occurs under neutral conditions.
