Synthetic Strategies for the Construction of Cyclobutane‐Fused Heterocycles

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Cyclobutane‐fused heterocycles are important motifs commonly present in bioactive compounds, recognized for their rigid 3D structures that confer unique properties. However, synthesizing these compounds remains challenging. This review discusses current methods for their synthesis, such as photochemical, metal‐catalyzed, and Lewis acid‐mediated [2 + 2]
