Amide‐substituted diynes were cyclized in the presence of a cationic gold catalyst and an external nucleophile leading to 1‐indenones and 1‐iminoindenones. The electron‐donating features of the nitrogen atom enable the formation of a reactive ketene iminium ion, which can be trapped by either diphenyl sulfoxide or anthranil as nucleophiles in a subsequent oxidation step, providing substituted inden‐1‐on‐3‐carboxamides.
