Counter revolution: Most homogeneous gold‐catalyzed transformations employ gold(I) complexes with weakly coordinating anions, which, their remarkable activity notwithstanding, lack stability at higher temperatures. Shi et al. have described the synthesis of simple phosphine‐based gold(I) complexes with triazolates as counter ions. The compounds are highly thermostable and good catalysts for intermolecular hydroaminations.
