摘要
The mechanism of the Au-III-catalyzed nucleophilic addition of a small alkanol to an alkyne, which yields a ketal product, has been investigated computationally by using GGA (BP86), hybrid (PBE0) and double-hybrid (B2-PLYP-D3BJ) density functional theory with the large aug-cc-pVTZ (aug-cc-pVTZ-PP) basis sets of triple- quality. The importance of hydrogen-bonding networks is highlighted in the mechanism. The nucleophilic attacks possess relatively lower activation barriers than the hydrogen migrations, and the rate-determining step is predicted to be the last hydrogen migration step.
