Highly strained hydrocarbons have always been a research target of high interest. Due to their untypical electronic structure, they show interesting reactivity patterns and can easily be activated by π-coordination to or insertion reactions with metal complexes. Herein we report the synthesis of a range of 3,3-disubstituted cyclopropenylgold(I) complexes. The synthesis of such compounds with a metal, which usually easily activate cyclopropenes is a double-edged sword. We found σ-bound vinylic gold to generally have a strong stabilizing effect in terms of ring strain. The complexes show a strong distortion, preactivating the cyclopropenyls towards the ring-opening mode which thermally generates 1-aurated vinylcarbenes which is reflected by a much faster conversion (Ea of 10 kcal/mol instead of 40 kcal/mol, the reaction proceeds at temperatures as low as ?20 °C instead of 200 °C reported in the literature). In 3-phenyl-cyclopropenyl complexes, these could be trapped intramolecularly to give indenylgold(I) complexes. The properties of these highly strained complexes were investigated, utilizing a range of analytical and experimental procedures and Kohn-Sham density functional theoretic methods.

In the presence of TsNHNH2, a Br?nsted acid-promoted intramolecular cyclization ofo-(1-arylvinyl) acetophenone derivatives was developed, leading to polysubstituted indenes with complexity and diversity in moderate to excellent yields. In sharp contrast with either the radical or carbene involved cyclization of aldehydicN-tosylhydrazone with vinyl, a cationic cyclization pathway was involved, whereN-tosylhydrazone served as an electrophile and alkylation reagent during this transformation.
Rhenium-Catalyzed Cyclization via 1,2-Iodine and 1,5-Hydrogen Migration for the Synthesis of 2-Iodo-1 H-indenes

A rhenium complex catalyzed the formation of 2-iodo-1H-indene derivatives through iodine and hydrogen migration of 3-iodopropargyl ethers. The reaction proceeded via generation of 1-iodoalkenylrhenium carbene species by sequential 1,2-iodine and 1,5-hydro
