This review describes the development of enantioselective methods for the ring opening of
cyclopropanes. Both approaches based on the reaction of nonchiral cyclopropanes and …

The development of novel synthetic strategies to form new chemical entities in a
stereoselective manner is an ongoing significant objective in organic and medicinal …

The enantioselective synthesis of spirocycles has long been pursued by organic chemists.
Despite their unique 3D properties and presence in several natural products, the difficulty in …

Due to the synergistic “push–pull” effect of vicinal electron‐donating and electron‐
withdrawing groups, donor–acceptor (D‐A) cyclopropanes have been recognized as one of …

The cooperation and interplay between organic and metal catalyst systems is of utmost
importance in nature and chemical synthesis. Here innovative and selective cooperative …

The catalytic enantioselective assembly of spirocyclic molecules featuring a spiro quaternary
carbon stereocenter is currently of great interest because such privileged 3D structures are …

Cycloaddition reactions are among the most important tools for the construction of cyclic
compounds in organic synthesis, since these reactions are vital to access natural products …

Donor‐acceptor cyclopropanes not only participate in a broad range of ring openings with
nucleophiles, electrophiles, radical and red‐ox agents, but also are excellent substrates for …

Vinyl cyclopropanes are amongst the most useful building blocks in organic synthesis. Their
easy opening and capacity to generate dipoles have been exploited for the synthesis of …

Vinylcyclopropanes (VCPs) are commonly used in transition‐metal‐catalyzed
cycloadditions, and the utilization of their recently realized reactivities to construct new cyclic …
