Abstract

A class of axially chiral NHC–Au(I) complexes has been applied to the asymmetric Friedel–Crafts/cyclization reaction of nitrogen-tethered 1,6-enynes 14 with indole derivatives 15, affording the corresponding Friedel–Crafts and intramolecular cyclization products 16 in good yields and with moderate ee values under mild conditions.
