New reactivity patterns : Gold(I) catalyzes the conversion of cyclopentenes ( 1 / 1′ ) into cyclohexadienes ( 2 / 3 ). This profound skeleton rearrangement comprises ring expansion and a [1,2]‐alkynyl shift, and is thought to be initiated by the cleavage of the bridging CC bond. The proposed allyl–gold cation intermediate is trapped with alcohols to provide bicyclo[3.2.1]octadiene and tricyclo[3.2.1.0 2,7 ]octane derivatives.
