Catalytic transformations involving metal carbenes are considered one of the most important
aspects of homogeneous transition metal catalysis. Recently, gold-catalyzed generation of …

Donor and donor–donor carbenes are two important kinds of carbenes, which have
experienced tremendous growth in the past two decades. This review provides a …

Abstract [2, 3]‐Sigmatropic rearrangement reaction involving sulfonium ylide (Doyle–Kirmse
reaction) generated from metal carbenes represents one of the powerful methods for the …

We report a switchable synthesis of acylindoles and quinoline derivatives via gold‐catalyzed
annulations of anthranils and ynamides. α‐Imino gold carbenes, generated in situ from …

We herein report the unprecedented synthesis of diverse biologically important aza‐
heterocycles by employing sulfilimines as nitrene transfer reagents. This class of sulfur …

Here an efficient copper‐catalyzed cascade cyclization of azide‐ynamides via α‐imino
copper carbene intermediates is reported, representing the first generation of α‐imino …

The construction of N-heterocyclic eight-membered rings with good regio-, stereo-, and
enantioselective control remains a formidable challenge in asymmetric catalysis. Herein, we …

Dearomatization of anthranils with vinylcyclopropanes (VCPs) by Pd‐catalyzed [4+ 3]
cyclization reaction has been realized. In the presence of a catalytic amount of borane as an …

This work reports gold‐catalyzed [4+ 3]‐annulations of 2‐(1‐alkynyl)‐2‐alken‐1‐ones with
anthranils to yield epoxybenzoazepine products with excellent exo‐diastereoselectivity (dr> …

This work reports new annulations of N-aryl ynamides with benzisoxazoles to form 6H-
indolo [2, 3-b] quinoline derivatives. The synthetic utility of this new method is manifested by …
