intrinsic inertness of CC (respect to allenes and alkynes) in taking part in nucleophilic additions assisted by π-electrophilic activations. Allylic alcohols have been demonstrated to be feasible “surrogates” of non-activated alkenes for the enantioselective allylic alkylation of indoles catalyzed by chiralgold(I) complexes. In this investigation, a full account addressing efficiency and substrate scope

Breaking the taboo: The direct use of allylicalcohols in catalytic and enantioselective Friedel–Crafts alkylation is described for the first time in the presence of chiral gold complexes. This intramolecular Friedel–Crafts reaction was used to prepare a broad range of functionalized tetrahydrocarbazoles (see scheme; X=Me, F, Br, Cl, OMe; R=Me, Et, tBu; R′=H, Me).
打破禁忌:在手性金配合物的存在下,首次首次描述了在催化和对映选择性的Friedel-Crafts烷基化反应中直接使用烯丙醇。该分子内Friedel-Crafts反应用于制备范围广泛的官能化四氢咔唑(参见方案; X = Me,F,Br,Cl,OMe; R = Me,Et,t Bu; R'= H,Me)。
