Gold-Catalyzed Aminoalkenylation of β-Amino-1,n-diynols to Cycloalkyl-, Piperidinyl- and Pyranyl-Fused Pyrroles.

A synthetic method to prepare cycloalkyl-, piperidinyl- and pyranyl-fused pyrroles efficiently by gold(I)-catalyzed dehydrative aminoalkenylation of β-amino-1,n-diynols under mild conditions at room temperature is described.
