We report the highly efficient gold-catalyzed hydrocarboxylation of internal alkynes that operates under solvent- and silver-free conditions. This new, simple, and eco-friendly protocol allows for the synthesis of a wide variety of functionalized aryl and alkyl enol esters in high yields, with <i>Z</i>-stereospecificity and good regioselectivities and without the requirement for purification by chromatography. This process represents an expedient, operationally simple method for the synthesis of ...[more]
