Carbocycles from donor–acceptor cyclopropanes

TLDR
This review summarizes research directed towards the formation of carbocyclic adducts from donor-acceptor cyclopropanes and focuses on annulation and cycloaddition reactions mediated by Lewis or protic acid, bases, or thermal conditions.
Abstract
This review summarizes research directed towards the formation of carbocyclic adducts from donor–acceptor cyclopropanes. The focus of the review is on annulation and cycloaddition reactions (both inter- and intramolecularly) mediated by Lewis or protic acid, bases, or thermal conditions. Rearrangements resulting in carbocycles and those reactions mediated by transition metal catalysis have been excluded.

Gold-Catalyzed Rearrangement of Alkynyl Donor–Acceptor Cyclopropanes To Construct Highly Functionalized Alkylidenecyclopentenes

TL;DR: A gold-catalyzed 1,7-addition-cyclization-elimination cascade sequence performed on a range of alkynyl-substituted donor-acceptor-type cyclopropanes provides facile entry to highly functionalized exo-alkylidenecyclopentenes under very mild conditions.
