A gold-catalyzed 1,2-oxyalkynylation of N-allenamides with ethylnylbenziodoxolones (EBXs) has been achieved for the first time. The reaction, which follows a redox-neutral Au(I)/Au(III) catalytic pathway, was enabled in an attempt to exhaust the EBX reagents atom-economically by putting the nucleophilic carboxylate part of EBXs to appropriate use. This constitutes the first example for gold-catalyzed beta-alkynylation of N-allenamides to construct highly valuable 1,3-enynes. The potential of the sequence is further documented by some follow-up transformations.
