title: Gold-catalyzed oxidative rearrangement of homopropargylic ether via oxonium ylide.
abstract: Synthetically useful α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds were obtained from gold-catalyzed oxidative rearrangement of homopropargylic ether under mild reaction conditions. Gold carbenoid and oxonium ylide are proposed as key intermediates.
