This work reports gold-catalyzed iminations of terminal propargyl alcohols with anthranils or isoxazoles to yield E-configured α-amino-2-en-1-ones and -1-als with complete chemoselectivity. These catalytic iminations occur exclusively with C(1)-nucleophilic additions on terminal alkynes, in contrast to a typical C(2)-route. For 3,3-dialkylprop-1-yn-3-ols, a methyl substituent is superior to long alkyl chains as the 1,2-migration groups toward α-imino gold carbenes. For secondary prop-1-yn-3-ols, phenyl, vinyl, and cyclopropyl substituents are better than hydrogen as the migrating groups, obviating typical gold carbene reactions. DFT calculations have been performed to rationalize the observed C(1)-regioselectivity and the preferable cyclopropyl migration based on gold carbene pathways.

Silylacetylene chlorides Me3SiCCCRR'Cl react with magnesium in ether medium to give the corresponding 1,6-bis(trimethylsilyl)-3,3,4,4-tetraalkylhexa-1,5-diynes.By the same method bis(1-trimethylsilylethynylcyclopent-1-yl) and bis(1-trimethylsilylethynylcyclohex-1-yl) were prepared.Desilylation of 1,6-bis(trimethylsilyl)-3,3,4,4-tetraalkylhexa-1,5-diynes gives corresponding 3,3,4,4-tetraalkylhexa-1,5-diynes.
