title: Asymmetric dearomatization of 1-aminonaphthalene derivatives by gold-catalyzed intramolecular double C-C bond formation.
abstract: It has been established that a cationic gold(I)/axially chiral biaryl bisphosphine complex catalyzes asymmetric dearomatization of 1-aminonaphthalene derivatives by the intramolecular double C-C bond formation. Two different dearomatization products were obtained depending on the substituents on the benzyl groups at the alkyne termini.
