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.

Regioselective Hydrogenolysis of Donor–Acceptor Cyclopropanes with Zn-AcOH Reductive System

TL;DR: A convenient low-cost method for regioselective ring-opening of donor-acceptor cyclopropanes with the Zn-AcOH reductive system was developed and the utility of the synthesized compounds was demonstrated by transforming them into valuable acyclic and cyclic compounds.
