Au(I) catalyzes the transformation of alkynes into cyclic acetals and thioacetals at much higher rate than Brønsted acids. The reaction appears to be general for a range of alkynes and diols or dithiols, which are efficiently transformed with high selectivities. One of the salient features of this reaction process is the high reactivity of the enol ether or enol thioether intermediates, which undergo
