Nicolas Marion, Ronan Gealageas, and Steven P. Nolan [(NHC)AuI]-Catalyzed Rearrangement of Allylic Acetates. Page 2654. It was incorrectly stated that “no conversion was obtained at room temperature”. The reaction can be performed at room temperature under the conditions previously described, even though the conversion remains lower (i.e., 70%). Additionally, some values reported in Table 2 are incorrect; the correct ones are shown below.

NMR conversions. b Substantial amount of oligomerization.
These inaccurate results were due to the use of silver salts of altered quality. OL800032E 10.1021/ol800032e Published on Web 01/24/2008
