The radical ring-opening reactions of cyclopropyl ketones, mediated by samarium (II) iodide and other electron transfer agents are described. This strategy allows tandem rearrangement cyclisation reactions and the trapping of the resultant samarium (III) enolates by a variety of electrophiles, for the construction of complex bicyclic systems.
