The first examples of gold-catalyzed cyclizations of diols and triols to the corresponding hetero- or spirocycles in an aqueous medium are presented. These reactions take place within nanomicelles, where the hydrophobic effect is operating, thereby driving the dehydrations, notwithstanding the surrounding water. By the addition of simple salts such as sodium chloride, reaction times and catalyst loadings can be significantly decreased.

Furans, pyrroles, and thiophenes are efficiently prepared by gold-catalyzed dehydrative cyclizations of readily available, heteroatom-substituted propargyllc alcohols. The reactions are rapid, high-yielding, and procedurally simple, giving essentially pure aromatic heterocycles In minutes under open-flask conditions with catalyst loadings as low as 0.05 mol %.
