[reaction: see text] An efficient one-step synthesis of 2,4-diazabicyclo[4.2.0]octa-1(6),2-dien-5-ones 3 from methyl 2-chloro-2-cyclopropylideneacetate (1) and amidines 2a-c as well as N,N-dimethylguanidine (2d) is described. Similar to the benzocyclobutenes, the cyclobutene-annelated pyrimidones 3 undergo thermal ring opening and the resulting o-quinodimethane analogues readily cycloadd dienophiles to yield tetrahydroquinazolone derivatives.

The 2-spirocyclopropanated methyl 5-oxopiperazine-2-carboxylate and the 3-spirocyclopropanated 6-chloro-1,4-diazepane-2,5-dione could both be prepared at choice in 93 and 88% yield, respectively, from methyl 2-chloro-2-cyclopropylideneacetate () in a sequence of Michael addition of 3-benzyloxypropylamine, peptide coupling with N-Boc-glycine, Boc-group removal and cyclization. Transformation of the benzyloxypropyl side chain, peptide coupling with N-Boc-(S)-asparagine, deprotection and repeated cyclization led to the octahydro[2H]pyrazino[1,2-a]pyrazinetrione scaffold containing a rigidified mimic of a tripeptide with a DGR motif. The overall yield of after deprotection of (a total of 13 steps in 8 distinct operations) was 30%.

Methyl 2-chloro-2-cyclopropylideneacetate (2) and its spiropentane analogue 3 cycloadd to dihydroisoquinoline N-oxide (9), pyrroline N-oxide (12), and C-phenyl-N-methylnitrone (16) to give 5-spirocyclopropaneisoxazolidines in good yields (58-93%). The thermal behavior of the 5-spirocyclopropaneisoxazolidines is rather differentiated, depending strongly on the constitution of the nitrone and the solvent. As nitrone 9 has the tendency to undergo cycloreversion reactions, the ketoamide rearrangement products 20 and 21 from its cycloadduct derive from the thermodynamically favored 4-spirocyclopropaneisoxazolidine regioisomers formed after the cycloreversion process.
