A novel and highly efficient synthetic approach to cyclopropanes was realized via 1,3-migration of acyloxy groups triggered by α-imino rhodium carbenes. Excellent chemoselectivity ensured broad compatibility of common functional groups. Merits such as readily available substrates, mild reaction conditions, and time-saving processes qualified this transformation as an attractive alternative strategy to synthesize multifunctionalized cyclopropanes. Primary investigations and discussion on the mechanism are presented.
