Selectivity is golden : The first asymmetric redox–neutral domino reaction catalyzed by gold that results in the direct functionalization of unreactive sp 3 CH bonds has been reported. This method consists of a heterocyclization/1,5‐hydride transfer/cyclization reaction and provides synthetically valuable azepines with high enantioselectivities and in high yields (Tf=triflate; see scheme).
