An effective combination: With the first asymmetric total synthesis of fawcettimine (1) it has been shown that the use of organocatalytic annulation and gold(I)-catalyzed cyclization reactions provides an effective combination for the synthesis of complex molecules. The absolute configuration of 1 was established through an X-ray structure analysis of its hydrobromide. (Figure Presented).

(Chemical Equation Presented) In control: Gold(I)-catalyzed intramolecular addition of silyl enol ethers to alkynes and allenes allows for the diastereoselective synthesis of cyclopentenes with control of the position of the double bond. The utility of th
