Synthesis of Dihydroindolooxazines via a Redox-Neutral, Gold-Catalyzed Hydride-Transfer Process

Redox-neutral gold-mediated processes are particularly valuable for C–H bond functionalization. When these transformations proceed stepwise via intramolecular hydride transfer to an electrophilic gold(I) center, their efficiency critically depends on the nature of the hydride donor. We report herein that, in contrast...
