Abstract
Gold(I) complexes containing monodentate PIII‐ligands built upon methylated α‐cyclodextrins have been synthesized and assessed in the cycloisomerization of 1,6‐enynes, two of the reactions studied involving prochiral substrates. Their performance was compared with that of previously reported mononuclear and dinuclear α‐ and β‐cyclodextrin‐based AuI complexes. Enantiodiscrimination was found to be strongly dependent on the ability of the ligand to position metal‐coordinated substrates inside the cyclodextrin core.
