An interesting gold-catalyzed electrophilic addition to arylalkyne to synthesize substitutednaphthalenes has been presented. Different metal hexafluoroantimonates have also been found to effect the transformation. Counter anion and oxo- and alkynophilicities of catalytic gold species might play an important role in this annulation reaction.
