A general protocol for visible-light-induced cyclopropanation of alkenes was developed with bromomethyl silicate as a methylene transfer reagent, offering a robust tool for accessing highly valuable cyclopropanes. In addition to α-aryl or methyl-substituted Michael acceptors and styrene derivatives, the unactivated 1,1-dialkyl ethylenes were also shown to be viable substrates. Apart from realizing the cyclopropanation of terminal alkenes, the methyl transfer reaction has been further demonstrated to be amenable to the internal olefins. The photocatalytic cyclopropanation of 1,3-bis(1-arylethenyl)benzenes was also achieved, giving polycyclopropane derivatives in excellent yields. With late-stage cyclopropanation as the key strategy, the synthetic utility of this transformation was also demonstrated by the total synthesis of LG100268.

A variety of terminal alkenes, as well as heteroaromatic compounds, are borylated by the combined use of BBr3/2,6-dichloropyridine (B3) or BBr3/2,6-lutidine (B5). α,α-Diarylalkenes prefer the former reagent combination, while other alkenes prefer the latter. Mechanistic considerations strongly suggest that the former and latter reactions proceed through electrophilic substitution reactions with BBr3 and [BBr2·B5]+BBr4-, respectively.
Scandium(III) Trifluoromethanesulfonate Catalyzed Selective Reactions of Donor–Acceptor Cyclopropanes with 1,1-Diphenylethanols: An Approach to Polysubstituted Olefins

An unexpected synthetic approach to polysubstituted olefins through the scandium(III) trifluoromethanesulfonate catalyzed ring-opening reaction of donor–acceptor cyclopropanes with 1,1-diphenylethanols was developed. The reactions, which are experimentally easy to handle, feature tolerance of various functional groups and mild reaction conditions. On the basis of experimental evidence, a plausible mechanism was also proposed.
