Abstract | Cited by

Herein, we describe Hg(OTf)2 as a new catalytic system for organic synthesis, which can achieve the hydration of alkynes, C–C bond forming cyclizations, heterocycle synthesis and cyclization initiated by allylic alcohols at very high catalytic turnovers under mild conditions. The first solid-supported mercuric salt, silaphenylmercuric triflate, was also developed and found to act as a powerful catalyst for most Hg(OTf)2-catalyzed reactions.
