Gold(I)-catalyzed intermolecular hydroalkoxylation of allenes: a DFT study.
The mechanistic and regiochemical aspects in the Au(I)-catalyzed intermolecular hydroalkoxylation of allenes have been studied computationally. The most favorable pathway is nucleophilic attack of an Au(I)-coordinated allene, which occurs irreversibly. An Au(I)-catalyzed mechanism is proposed that a...
