title: Synthesis of 2,5-dihydropyridine derivatives by gold-catalyzed reactions of β-ketoesters and propargylamines.
abstract: The reaction of simple β-ketoesters and propargylamines under gold(III) catalysis leads to the formation of the elusive 2,5-dihydropyridine system. This new reaction provides the synthesis of potentially bioactive compounds in moderate to high yields.
