This work reports gold-catalyzed 1,4-oxofunctionalizations of 3-en-1-ynamides with nitrones, yielding two distinct E-configured products. We obtained 1,4-oxoarylation products from 3-en-1-ynamides bearing C(4)-electron-donating substituents and 1,4-oxoamination products from those analogues bearing C(4)-aryl substituents. We propose that if vinylgold carbenes are stable, imines undergo a para-arylation on these gold carbenes. If vinylgold carbenes are highly electron-deficient, this N-attack is irreversible to enable 1,4-oxoaminations.
