An efficient synthetic method for 2-cyano-1,4-cycloheptadiene derivatives was developed on the basis of divinylcyclopropane rearrangement. The substrates were prepared from 2-vinylcyclopropanecarbonitrile and an α,β- epoxysilane through a Peterson olefination. The resulting 2-cyano-1,4- cycloheptadiene underwent deprotonation at the doubly allylic methylene group to afford a novel cycloheptadienyl anion, a useful intermediate for synthesizing polycyclic compounds.
