Synthesis and photosensitized oxygenation of cyclopropylidenecyclobutenes
Sharon, Ofer,Frimer, Aryeh A.

Cyclopropylidenecyclobutenes and -cyclobutanes were conveniently prepared using the Petasis titanocene approach. The cyclobutenes were unreactive to singlet oxygen, reacting sluggishly via a photoinitiated free radical autooxidative epoxidation process, to yield the corresponding spiroketones. By contrast, cyclopropylidenecyclobutanes react rapidly with 1O 2, via an 'ene' process, initially generating a cyclopropyl hydroperoxide, which proceeds to products via Hock cleavage. The inertness of cyclopropylidenecyclobutenes to a 1O2 'ene' reaction mode may be attributed to the fact that it would require the formation of the relatively high energy cyclobutadiene moiety.
B(C6F5)3-Catalyzed Hydrosilylation of Vinylcyclopropanes

A hydrosilylation of vinylcyclopropanes (VCPs) catalyzed by the strong boron Lewis acid B(C6F5)3 is reported. For the majority of VCPs, little or no ring opening of the cyclopropyl unit is observed. Conversely, for VCPs with bulky R groups, such as ortho-substituted aryl rings or branched alkyl residues, ring opening is the exclusive reaction pathway. This finding is explained by the thwarted hydride delivery to a sterically shielded, β-silicon-stabilized cyclopropylcarbinyl cation intermediate.
Palladium-Catalyzed Carbonylative Cross-Coupling Reaction between Aryl(Heteroaryl) Iodides and Tricyclopropylbismuth: Expedient Access to Aryl Cyclopropylketones

The carbonylative cross-coupling reaction between aryl and heteroaryl iodides and tricyclopropylbismuth is reported. The reaction is catalyzed by (SIPr)Pd(allyl)Cl, a NHC-palladium(II) catalyst, operates under 1 atm of carbon monoxide and tolerates a wide range of functional groups. The use of lithium chloride was found to provide higher yields of the desired aryl cyclopropylketones. The conditions were also applied to the carbonylative cross-coupling of an iodoalkene to afford the corresponding alkenyl cyclopropylketone.
