of a gold catalyst and 8‐ethylquinoline N‐oxide, a homopropargylic ether bearing an electron‐rich aromatic ring or an alkenyl group can be converted into a cis‐cyclobutanone smoothly. An α‐oxo gold carbenoid is proved to be the key intermediate, and it can evolve into an oxonium ylide.

Syntheticallyuseful α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds were obtained from gold-catalyzed oxidative rearrangement of homopropargylic ether under mild reaction conditions. Gold carbenoid and oxonium ylide are proposed as key intermediates.
