Cycloisomerization of N -tethered indole- and dihydropyrrole-arylpropargyl substrates into complex polycycles was investigated by using gold(I) catalysis. Enantioselectivities up to 93% ee were obtained in the asymmetric version of this process. DFT calculations rationalized the reactivity observed for the formation of such complex molecular frameworks.
