نبذة مختصرة : Coinage metals have become the metal of choice due to their excellent catalytic activity in organic transformation processes. Combining various chiral ligands and coinage metals became a productive area of research and access to heterocyclic derivatives according to an efficient and sustainable manner. This review was devoted to the various recently developed coinage metal-catalyzed domino processes of ortho-alkynylaryl and heteroaryl aldehydes and ketones leading to functionalized heterocycles. Various gold chiral complexes were presented, and methods of preparations of chromenes along with indoles were covered. Ag-chiral complexes are also prone to interesting activities such as cyclization followed by reduction and functionalization with enolizable ketones or (diazomethyl)phosphonate. Asymmetric Cu-catalyzed domino cyclization and asymmetric transfer hydrogenation reactions efficiently led to functionalized chromenes. Some remarkable examples involving copper associated with ruthenium in the context of a cyclization and asymmetric hydrogenation process were also presented.
