Link : meet.google.com/bfh-poxv-bso RESUMEN : We report a direct, straightforward, and regioselective hydration of 1,4-enynes designed from Morita−Baylis−Hillman adducts. Under smooth conditions and short reaction times, gold-catalyzed hydration of internal alkynes provides synthetically useful ketones as single regioisomers in yields higher than 90%. The synthetic usefulness of this protocol was demonstrated by the conversion of selected ketones into biologically valuable α-alkylidene-γ-lactones upon reduction with sod...
