摘要: Herein we present a detailed investigation of the mechanistic aspects dual gold-catalysed hydrophenoxylation alkynes, using both experimental and computational methods. The dissociation [{Au(NHC)}2(µ-OH)][BF4] is essential to enter catalytic cycle; this step favored in presence bulky, non-coordinating counterions. Moreover, silico studies confirmed that phenol does not only act as reactant, but co-catalyst, lowering energy barriers for several transition states. A gem-diaurated species might form during reaction, lies deep within potential well, likely be an ‘off-cycle’ rather than ‘in-cycle’ intermediate.
