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

Ring-opening transformations of donor–acceptor cyclopropanes (DAC) with carbon-
centered nucleophiles is a simple, straight-forward approach to 1, 3-bifunctional compounds …

Nitrogen‐containing molecules are the key structural constituent of many pharmaceutical
compounds that play a pivotal role in drug development. Owing to their multifaceted …

A general, Brønsted acid catalyzed method for the room temperature, nucleophilic ring
opening of donor–acceptor cyclopropanes in fluorinated alcohol solvent, HFIP, is described …

We propose a new concept of the triple role of protic ionic liquids with nucleophilic anions: a)
a regenerable solvent, b) a Brønsted acid inducing diverse transformations via general acid …

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 …

The efficient catalytic activation of donor–acceptor aminocyclopropanes lacking the
commonly used diester acceptor is reported here in a (3+ 2) dearomative annulation with …

By merging C–C and C–F bond cleavage, we developed a regioselective ring opening/gem-
difluoroallylation of cyclopropyl ketones with α-trifluoromethylstyrenes, which proceeds …

Two-step, ring-opening 1, 3-carbothiolation of donor–acceptor (D–A) cyclopropanes
employing alkyl halides and in situ generated dithiocarbamates (from amines and CS2) has …

MgI2-catalyzed nucleophilic ring-opening reactions of donor–acceptor cyclopropanes with
indoline-2-thiones as easy-to-handle sulfur nucleophiles were investigated. A series of …
