The heteronuclear platinum clusters Pt 2 CO 2 (CO) 8 (PPh 3 ) 2 and Pt(C 6 H 11 NC) 2 [Mo(CO) 3 (n 5 -C 5 H 5 )] 2 are poor catalysts for the hydrogenation of olefins and internal acetylenes, but they show a reasonable activity for the hydrogenation of terminal acetylenes. In this latter case the selectivity towards olefins is low. Whereas the PtMo 2 cluster can be recovered unaltered from the reaction mixture, the Pt 2 CO 2 cluster undergoes rather complex molecular rearrangements, which take place under the catalytic conditions. Finally the Pt 2 CO 2 cluster, under well defined conditions, may act as a catalyst for the selective hydrogenation of diphenylacetylene to cis -stilbene.

C–O, C–N and C–C bonds are the most widespread types of bonds in nature, and are the cornerstone of most organic compounds, ranging from pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals to advanced materials and polymers. Cationic gold acts as a soft and carbophilic Lewis acid and is considered one of the most powerful activators of C–C multiple bonds. Consequently, gold-catalysis plays an important role in the development of new strategies to form these bonds in more convenient ways. In this review, we highlight recent advances in the gold-catalyzed chemistry of addition of X–H (X = O, N, C) bonds to C–C multiple bonds, tandem reactions, and asymmetric additions. This review covers gold-catalyzed organic reactions published from 2008 to the present.
