An original and straightforward entry to polysubstituted indenes from readily available ynamides is reported. Upon reaction with a N-heterocyclic carbene–gold complex under mild conditions, activated keteniminium ions are generated whose unique electrophilicity triggers a [1,5]-hydride shift and a subsequent cyclization. The presence of an endocyclic enamide in the densely functionalized resulting indenes was shown to be especially useful and versatile, offering a range of opportunities for their further postfunctionalization.
