Summary: This study focuses on the activation of terminal alkynes with a silyl group and the synthesis of stereochemically defined allyl ethers and esters through 1,2-silyl group migration and interception reactions with external nucleophiles. The obtained products can serve as building blocks for further functionalization reactions.

Summary: A visible-light-induced [3+2] oxidative cyclization of alkynes with ketene dithioacetals in the presence of an acridine photosensitizer was reported, leading to regioselective synthesis of multisubstituted thiophenes in high yields under metal-free conditions. This reaction showed good substrate tolerance and efficiency in large-scale syntheses. The reaction mechanism and applications were detailed to illustrate the reactivity of the new 1,3-dipoles and the selectivity of the reactions.

Summary: A new ionic cyclopropanation process has been developed, resulting in the formation of 1,1,2,3-tetrasubstituted cyclopropanes as the main products. These tetrasubstituted cyclopropanes can be further utilized for synthesis, including the formation of five-membered lactones through a reaction promoted by TiCl4.

Summary: This review discusses the use of donor-acceptor cyclopropanes (DACs) for building heterocycles. The generation of heterocycles from DACs can be achieved through (3+2), (3+3), and (4+3) cycloaddition pathways, as well as nucleophilic ring-opening reactions, intramolecular transformations, and cycloisomerizations with suitable catalysts. The mild reaction conditions and the wide range of starting materials make the DAC route attractive for heterocycle synthesis. The literature covered in this review spans from 2018 to 2023.

Summary: 'Double' donor-acceptor cyclopropanes containing a p-or m-phenylene moiety react with alkenes or dienes in the presence of GaCl3, forming gallium 1,2-zwitterionic intermediates, and the structure of the final products depends on the substrate. Unlike the para-or meta-isomers, the reaction of 2,2'-(1,2-phenylene)bis(cyclopropane-1,1-dicarboxylate) does not involve alkenes and results in the formation of isomeric tricyclo[6.2.2.02,7]dodeca-2,4,6-triene-9,9,11,11-tetracarboxylate, a product of intramolecular rearrangement.

Summary: Benzobicyclo[3.3.1]nonane derivatives were synthesized through a gallium trichloride mediated reaction of donor-acceptor cyclopropanes (DACs) with 1,3-dienes, involving a cascade ionic [2 + 4]-cycloaddition/Friedel-Crafts-type cyclization process. The method shows tolerance towards different substituents on the main framework and allows for potentially useful modifications on the benzobicyclo[3.3.1]nonane derivatives.

Summary: In this study, a versatile approach for endocyclic ring opening of bicyclic vinylcyclopropanes triggered by Heck arylations was reported. The key step of this transformation involves a beta-C-elimination allowing the ring expansion of various cyclopropanated compounds. Additionally, gem-disubstituted cyclopropanated furans exhibited unexpected behavior by giving diastereoselectively asymmetrically substituted dienes. Mechanistic studies suggest a facile beta-C-elimination with a concomitant shift of Pd along the cyclopropane moiety as a competitive pathway in the Heck reaction.

Summary: The mechanism and diastereoselectivity of the cycloaddition reaction between D-A spirocyclopropane and aldehydes, catalyzed by para-toluenesulfonic acid (TsOH), have been investigated. The reaction process includes three stages, and the stereoselectivity is determined thermodynamically. Aldehydes with electron-rich substituents are more favorable for the reaction to proceed.

Summary: Stable bridged azaozonides can be selectively assembled through a catalyst-free three-component condensation, showing thermal stability and unique chemical properties. Their chemical stability allows for selective transformations, including novel rearrangement reactions, due to the specific properties of the amino group in aminoperoxides.
