Abstract

Cyclopropanols, due to their particular chemistry, can participate in various synthetic reactions with retention or cleavage of the strained three-membered ring. Direct cross-coupling ring-opening reaction of such molecules access to organic compounds, such as ketones has great importance in medicinal chemistry and material sciences. Hence, the coupling reaction/cyclization ring-opening of cyclopropanols for constructing new valuable molecules in the presence of a transition metal catalyst or under metal-free conditions is described in this context. The features of the reactions are discussed, and the mechanisms of the challenging reactions are highlighted. © 2023 Wiley-VCH GmbH.
