Conspectus The early years of gold catalysis were dominated by Au (I) complexes and
inorganic Au (III) salts. Thanks to the development of chelating ligands, more sophisticated …

Abstract The first C− SCF3/SeCF3 cross‐coupling reactions using gold redox catalysis
[(MeDalphos) AuCl], AgSCF3 or Me4NSeCF3, and organohalides as substrates are …

A (MeDalphos) AuCl complex was found to efficiently catalyze the cross-coupling of indoles
and allyl acetates/alcohols. The reaction tolerates many functional groups and selectively …

The chemistry of (P, C)-cyclometalated complexes derived from naphthyl phosphines [Np (P,
C) M] is presented and analysed in this review. The three main synthetic approaches …

A MeDalPhos-ligated gold (III) metallafluorene complex, generated via C–C oxidative
addition of biphenylene, reacts with CO to produce 9-fluorenone. Experimental and …

Over the last 5–10 years, gold (III) catalysis has developed rapidly. It often shows
complementary if not unique features compared to gold (I) catalysis. While recent work has …

Abstract π‐Allyl complexes of transition metals are key species in organometallic chemistry
and homogeneous catalysis. Palladium (II) π‐allyl complexes in particular, have gained a lot …

The possibility for AuIII σ‐cyclopropyl complexes to undergo ring‐opening and give π‐allyl
complexes was interrogated. The transformation was first evidenced within (P, C) …

Gold (I)‐catalyzed nucleophilic allylations of pyridinium and quinolinium ions with various
allyl pinacolboronates are reported. The reactions are completely selective with respect to …

The direct auration of arenes is a key step in numerous gold‐catalyzed reactions. Although
reported more than 100 years ago, understanding of its underlying mechanism has been …
