Dr. Xiaodong Michael Shi University of South Florida Host: Dr. Yu Yuan Title: Curiosity Driven New Reactivity Discovery Abstract: Homogeneous gold catalysis has been developed explosively during the past decades. Despite theremarkable electrophilic activation of alkynes by cationic Au(I) catalysts, such as PPh3Au+, onechallenge is to overcome their poor stability at high temperature. However, in order to activate someless reactive …
