A sp3-sp2 C?C cross-coupling reaction catalyzed by gold in the absence of a sacrificial oxidant is described. Vital to the success of this method is the implementation of a bimetallic catalyst bearing a bis(phosphino)amine ligand. A mechanistic hypothesis is presented, and observable transmetalation, C?Br oxidative addition, and C?C reductive elimination in a model gold complex are shown. We expect that this method will serve as a platform for the development of novel transformations involving redox-active gold catalysts.
