Cyclopropanes bearing donor and acceptor groups at the opposite ends of the C-C bond should react with both nucleophiles and electrophiles. Their reactivity towards nucleophiles is well explored while only few specific electrophilic reagents give desired

Bifunctional Photocatalysts: Exploiting Proximity for Enhanced Reaction Performance. [PDF]
This review covers the application of the bifunctional approach to photocatalysis as a means to attain (enhanced) enantioselectivity, and, more in general, as a strategy to enhance the catalytic performance through an effective use of short‐lived reaction intermediates.

Convenient Synthesis of Functionalized Cyclopropa[c]coumarin-1a-carboxylates
A simple method has been developed for the synthesis of cyclopropa[c]coumarins, which belong to the donor-acceptor cyclopropane family and, therefore, are promising substrates for the preparation of chromene-based fine chemicals. The method, based on the

Chiral spirocyclic compounds are important structural motifs for drug discovery. Here, the authors report a synthetic route to spirocycles based on enantioselective cycloaddition of activated spirocyclopropyl oxindoles, which act as donor-acceptor ...

Allylation of Donor−Acceptor Cyclopropanes
Direct allylation of glycal-derived donor−acceptor cyclopropanes has been achieved with TiCl4 activation followed by addition of allyltrimethylsilane. The α diastereomer is the major product, with selectivities ranging from 3:1 to 10:1 and yields around ...

Methods for the synthesis of donor-acceptor cyclopropanes
The interest in cyclopropane derivatives is caused by the facts that, first, the three-carbon ring is present in quite a few natural and biologically active ...

Cyclization of Cyclopropyl Carbonyls and the Homo-Nazarov Reaction
Ring strain confers exceptional reactivity to the cyclopropane ring. Nevertheless, activation of the cyclopropane ring is usually needed to allow ring-opening reactions under mild conditions.

4b,5,6,9-Tetrahydro-7H-dibenzo[c,e]pyrrolo[1,2-a]azepin-7-one
A simple approach to synthesize 4b,5,6,9-tetrahydro-7H-dibenzo[c,e]pyrrolo[1,2-a]azepin- 7-one has been developed, based on a three-step transformation of 2-(2-bromophenyl)cyclopropane-1,1-diester.

Saturated 1,4-diazocanes are highly important for medicinal chemistry and drug discovery, but their syntheses are often tedious. Herein, we report a copper-catalyzed (5 + 3) annulation of donor–acceptor cyclopropanes with imidazolidines, thereby ...
