Research topics from publications: Synthesis of 2-alkenylfurans via a Ag(i)-catalyzed tandem cyclization/cross-coupling reaction of enynones with iodonium ylides. Representative work: A silver(i)-catalyzed tandem cyclization/cross-coupling reaction of enynones with iodonium ylides to construct carbon-carbon double bonds has been developed. The strategy provides a novel method for the synthesis of 2-alkenylfurans. This is the first cross-coupling reaction between metal-carbene complexes and iodonium ylides
