Significance
Heterocycles such as furans, pyrroles, and thiophenes are widely spread cores found in biologically active natural products as well as pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The herein reported gold-catalyzed cycloisomerization of easily available propargylic alcohols provides a simple access to numerous derivatives of these important heterocycles.
