It has often been proposed that nectarless deceptive orchid species exploit naïve pollinators in search of food before they learn to avoid their flowers, and that intraspecific floral trait polymorphism, often noted in this plant group, could prolong the time

A novel approach to generate Au-containing all-carbon 1,3-dipoles is developed via an unprecedented migration-fragmentation of ketals/acetals. These in situ generated dipoles undergo rapid [3+2] cycloaddition under mild conditions with various enones/enals, electron-rich aromatic aldehydes, and N-benzylindole, leading to flexible formation
