Gold-catalyzed amination of in situ formed alkyl gold species with p-quinonediimines as a N source.

Herein, a gold-catalyzed electrophilic propargyl amination reaction of N-propargylamide using p-quinonediimines as a N source has been presented. This reaction initiates via a gold-catalyzed 5-exo-dig cyclization of N-propargylamides to form the key…
