L-Au-[TsC(CN)(2)] are new cationic gold catalysts with a carbon based counterion, which are widely applicable for gold catalyzed reactions. For reactions which need highly reactive gold catalysts, a Lewis acid co-catalyst can be added to increase the reactivity of L-Au-[TsC(CN)(2)]. L-Au-[TsC(CN)(2)] also have advantages of easy reaction steps and high functional group tolerance.
