Abstrakt: Due to the inherent challenges posed by the linear coordination of gold(I) complexes, asymmetric gold-catalyzed processes remain challenging, particularly in the atroposelective synthesis of axially chiral skeletons. Except for extremely few examples of intramolecular annulations, the construction of axial chirality via asymmetric gold-catalyzed intermolecular alkyne transformation is still undeveloped. Herein, a gold/HNTf 2 -cocatalyzed asymmetric diazo-alkyne annulation is developed, allowing the atroposelective and divergent synthesis of chiral non- C 2 -symmetric biaryls and arylquinones in generally good to excellent yield (up to 93% yield) and enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee), with broad substrate scope. Notably, this work represents the first gold-catalyzed atroposelective construction in an intermolecular manner. More interestingly, this strategy is successfully extended to the first asymmetric construction of seven-membered-ring atropisomers bearing one carbon-centered chirality in excellent diastereoselectivity and high enantioselectivity (up to 93% ee and 50:1 dr). Remarkably, the utility of this methodology is further illustrated by the successful application of a representative axially chiral ligand in a series of enantioselective reactions. Importantly, the Brønsted acid as a proton-shuttle cocatalyst significantly promotes this asymmetric annulation. Additionally, the origin of enantioselectivity of this annulation and the role of HNTf 2 are disclosed by density functional calculations and control experiments.
