This study discloses the first enantioselective variant of the gold(I)-catalyzed hydrative cyclizations of ynamides, which have been implemented by using bis-gold(I) complexes of chiral diphosphines. Starting from N -propargyl-ynamides and water in the presence of p -toluenesulfonic acid, the cyclization reactions afford N -tosyl-3,6-dihydropyridin-2(1 H )-ones in good isolated yields and with high levels of stereocontrol (20 examples, enantiomeric ratios up to 94:6).
