Abstract
The potential of metal homoenolates as multifunctional reagents in organic synthesis has become recognized in the last decade. Ring opening of siloxycyclopropanes by Lewis acidic metals currently provides the best route to the metal homoenolates, which are either isolable as a stable complex or exist only as a transient organometallic species. This review summarizes, for the first time, the research activities of metal homoenolate chemistry. Other synthetically useful routes to metal homoenolates are also described.

Selective Carbon–Carbon Bond Cleavage of Cyclopropanols

TL;DR: This review highlights new developments in this area over the past two decades of carbon-carbon (C-C) bond cleavage of cyclopropanols and related derivatives, which have emerged as unique three-carbon synthons.

C-acylation of cyclopropanols: preparation of functionalized 1,4-diketones.

TL;DR: A convenient method for preparing attractively functionalized 1,4-diketones has been devised by palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of cyclopropanols and acyl chlorides by demonstrating the utility in an enantioselective synthesis of (+)-myrmicarin 217.

Palladium-mediated ring opening of hydroxycyclopropanes

TL;DR: In this paper, the palladium-mediated ring opening of substituted cyclopropanols has been found to take place predominantly at the less substituted C−C bond, which is the same as the case of the titanium-medication of esters.

Aerobic oxidation of organic compounds catalyzed by vanadium compounds

TL;DR: Aerobic oxidation of α-hydroxy ketones catalyzed by dichloroethoxyoxovanadium in ethanol causes a carbon-carbon bond cleavage that produces diesters or diketones as discussed by the authors.

Diastereodivergent Carbometalation/Oxidation/Selective Ring Opening: Formation of All‐Carbon Quaternary Stereogenic Centers in Acyclic Systems

TL;DR: The developed title reaction sequence allows the preparation of both enantiomers of aldehyde (VIb) starting from the same initial cyclopropene derivative [(S)-Ib] as mentioned in this paper.

Methods of Reactivity Umpolung

TL;DR: There are six principal methods of umpolung: 1 2n-oxidation, heteroatom exchange and modification, homologation and its reversal, the cyclopropane “trick”, use of acetylenes, and redox reactions; under certain circumstances none of these techniques is necessary in cases where direct umpoline is possible.

Evidence for a reversible d, π-complexation, β-cupration sequence in the conjugate addition reaction of Gilman reagents with α,β-enones.

TL;DR: In situ trapping of reaction intermediates combined with stereochemical studies of the reaction of lithium dimethylcuprate with enones provides evidence for a pathway involving d,π-cuprate-enone and copper(III) β-adducts as important intermediates in cuprate-mediated conjugate addition of carbon.
