Abstract
The reaction of γ-stannylated propargyl esters in the presence of a cationic gold(i) catalyst affords vinylidenecyclopropane derivatives as a mixture of diastereomers. The cis-geometry of the alkenes is almost entirely retained in the product. DFT calculations suggest the involvement of the gold(i)-stabilized propargyl cation as a resonance form of gold(i)-coordinated allenylidene species.
