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.

Inherent Reactivity of Spiro-Activated Electrophilic Cyclopropanes

TL;DR: In this article, the second-order rate constants of the ring-opening reactions of thiophenolates with geminal bisacceptor-substituted cyclopropanes in DMSO at 20 °C were monitored by photometric methods.

Synthesis of Octahydro- and Decahydroquinolines by a One-Pot Cascade Reaction of Tetrasubstituted Enecarbamate

TL;DR: A transition-metal-catalyzed cyclopropanation followed by ring opening was investigated for the synthesis of octahydroquinolines 4 and decahydrosine 5 having a quaternary carbon center at the angular position, which are core structures of the fawcettimine-type alkaloids.
