An efficient synthetic strategy to generate differently polysubstituted naphthalenes and iodonaphthalenes through a gold-catalyzed cyclization reaction of 1-arylalka-2,3-dienyl acetates was described. Due to the substituent loading capability of both the aromatic ring and the allene moiety, different substituents may be introduced to the different locations of the naphthalenes. A possible mechanism
