A golden tandem reaction: The [PPh3AuCl]/AgSbF6 catalytic system promotes a tandem reaction composed of a Friedel–Crafts-type addition of electron-rich aromatic and heteroaromatic derivatives to unactivated alkenes and a carbocyclization (see scheme; Z=C(CO2Me)2, C(SO2Ph)2, O, NTs). The reaction is compatible with various functional groups on the enynes and nucleophiles, and proceeds rapidly at room temperature.
