Abstract

A gold(III)-catalyzed multicomponent coupling/cycloisomerization reaction of heteroaryl aldehydes, amines, and alkynes under solvent-free conditions or in water has been developed. This methodology provides rapid access to substituted aminoindolizines with high atom economy and high catalytic efficiency. Especially, the coupling of enantiomerically enriched amino acid derivatives produces the corresponding N-indolizine-incorporated amino acid derivatives without loss of enantiomeric purity.
