Abstract
The development of enantioselective gold catalysis has experienced significant growth since 2012. Chiral ligands of diverse structures are applied successfully in both Au(I) and Au(III) catalysis to afford valuable synthetic structures with high levels of enantiomeric excess. BIPHEP, SEGPHOS, and phosphoramidite types of ligands see a large number of usages. New variants of acyclic diaminocarbene ligands, helicene-based ligands, and P,N-bidentate ligands, as well as the further development of the chiral counteranion strategy open new venues in asymmetric Au(I) and Au(III) catalysis. Novel chiral ligand scaffolds including remotely functionalized biaryl-2-yldi(1-adamantyl)phosphines and SadPhos have emerged to further enrich enantioselective gold catalysis. With an ever-expanding chiral ligand toolbox, further advances in enantioselective gold catalysis are forthcoming.
