title: Gold-catalyzed α-furanylations of quinoline N-oxides with alkenyldiazo carbonyl species.
abstract: Gold-catalyzed α-furanylations of 8-alkylquinoline N-oxides have been achieved using alkenyldiazo carbonyl species as nucleophiles. The reactions are applicable to a reasonable range of alkenyldiazo species and 8-alkylquinoline N-oxides. The reaction mechanism is postulated to involve an initial nucleophilic addition of diazocarbonyl species at 8-alkylquinoline N-oxides, followed by diazo decomposition.
