title: Gold(III)-catalyzed double hydroamination of o-alkynylaniline with terminal alkynes leading to N-vinylindoles.
abstract: A highly efficient double-hydroamination reaction of o-alkynylanilines with terminal alkynes leading to N-alkenylindoles was developed by using gold(III) as a catalyst under neat conditions. [reaction: see text].
