Alkyl- and aryl-substituted N-propargyl phthalimides were used as valuable building blocks for the selective formation of the corresponding α-fluoro, β-phthalimido ketones, α,α-difluoro, β-phthalimido ketones or β-phthalimido α-diketones by means of gold-catalyzed oxyfluorination/oxydifluorination or dioxygenation reactions. The key factors addressing the product selectivity control were determined. The simultaneous assembly of the quinoxaline nucleus and the removal of the phthalimido-protecting group were tested. Reaction mechanisms of the different reaction pathways are assumed.

The results of our investigations on the Au-catalyzed regioselective hydration reaction of both alkyl- A nd aryl-substituted N-propargyl phthalimides directed to the selective formation of the corresponding β-phthalimido ketones are described. Experimental data, in particular the observed regioselectivity, have been qualitatively supported by quantum-chemical calculations carried out on model systems in the framework of Density Functional Theory (DFT) followed by quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIMS). Our results suggest that the electronic features of the initial adduct between the propargyl triple bond and the Au(i) catalyst, in particular the character of the gold-triple bond interaction, are essential for the observed regioselectivity. Other effects, such as the presence of the solvent and the formation of a H-bond between the water molecule and the phthalimido moiety, although apparently irrelevant for the regioselectivity, have proven to be kinetically and catalytically rather important.

The Au(i)-catalyzed intermolecular hydroalkoxylation of alkynes with allylic alcohols to provide allyl vinyl ethers that subsequently undergo Claisen rearrangement is reported. This new cascade reaction strategy facilitates the direct formation of γ,δ-unsaturated ketones from simple starting materials in a single step.
