Catalytic activity of cycloaurated complexes in the addition of 2-methylfuran to methyl vinyl ketone. Applied Organometallic Chemical, 25(11), 810-814.https://hdl.handle.net/10289/5972Cycloaurated gold(III) complexes derived from cycloaurated iminophosphorane, triphenylphosphine sulfide or selenide, or pyridylsulfonamide ligands have been assessed for their catalytic activity in the addition of 2-methylfuran to methyl vinyl ketone. Addition of AgBF₄ was generally needed for high activity, although those with coordinated atoms of high trans influence showed some activity in the absence of added Ag⁺.engold complexescyclometallated ligandsiminophosphoraneshomogeneous catalysisJournal Article10.1002/aoc.1842
