摘要

A new type of alanine triazole (ATA) ligand was found to be an efficient partner for the stabilization of gold(III), thus rendering improved stability and high catalytic activities in allene synthesis and hydration reactions through the 3,3-arrangement of propargyl esters and propargyl alcohols. In addition to Au(I), ATA-gold(III) was also proven to be an effective catalyst in promoting the formation of allenes with high yields. Furthermore, alanine triazole ruthenium has exhibited excellent potential as a means to catalyze borrowing hydrogen of alcohols and amines, ketones and alcohols.
