Triazole‐Gold‐Promoted, Effective Synthesis of Enones from Propargylic Esters and Alcohols: A Catalyst Offering Chemoselectivity, Acidity and Ligand Economy

Abstract: The air, moisture and thermally stable 1,2,3-triazole coordinated gold(I) complexes (TAAu) were revealed as the effective catalysts in promoting propargylic ester rearrangement and sequential allene hydration, giving the enones with excellent yields (up to 97% yields, 0.2% loading). The catalysts could also catalyze the more challenging Meyer-Schuster rearrangement (0.5% loading, up to 98% yields). The reported reaction confirmed TA-Au as a chemoselective catalyst in promoting alkyne activation with high effic… Show more

“…The first reaction involved the synthesis of a 16-Benzylidene-3-hydroxy-steroid17-one (2); it is noteworthy that several enone derivatives have developed using some reagents such as N-bromosuccinamide [18], L-tartaric acid [19], PPh 3 AuNTf 2 [20], (IPr)AuCl]/AgBF 4 [21], diethyl acetal [22]. In this investigation, the compound 2 was prepared from estrone and benzaldehyde in basic conditions (Figure 1).…”

“…It is very disappointed that the hydration product was found only with low yield ( Table 1, Entry 1). Based on our previous results on Au(I), 14 we firstly examined the effect of solvents on the reactivity using TriaAuCl 2 as the catalyst. As shown in Table 1, the reaction was strongly solvent-dependent.…”

“…Whilst there are numerous reports of the Au-catalyzed Meyer-Schuster rearrangement of propargylic alcohols [44][45][46][47][48][49], many of these reactions are carried out in MeOH as solvent and require heating for prolonged periods. Under our optimized conditions, the rearrangement of a wide range of propargylic alcohols 46 could be achieved at room temperature using 2 mol % Au catalyst in toluene, in the presence of either 20 mol % of boronic acid 43 or 1 equiv of MeOH as an additive (Scheme 11) [43,50].…”
