A systematic study on the effects of Lewis or Brønsted acid co‐catalysts in gold‐catalyzed reactions was undertaken using representative reactions (O‐, N‐, and C‐nucleophilic additions to alkynes). Through these reactions, it was demonstrated that an acidic co‐catalyst can increase the catalyst turnover significantly, enabling practical reaction rates at competitive catalyst loadings (<1 mol %).

Brønsted or Lewis acid assisted activation of an imidogold precatalyst (L-Au-Pht, Pht = phthalimide) offers a superior way to generate cationic gold compared with the commonly used silver-based system. It is also broadly applicable for most common gold-catalyzed reactions. For reactions that require milder conditions, milder acids can be used for optimized efficiency.

Goldcatalysts capable of promoting reactions at low‐level loadings under mild conditions are the exception rather than the norm. We examined reactions where the regeneration of cationicgoldcatalyst (e.g., protodeauration) was the turnover limiting stage. By manipulating electron density on the substituents around phosphorus and introducing steric handles we designed a phosphine ligand that contains
