A Pd-catalyzed 3,4-regioselective cyclopropanation of 2-substituted 1,3-dienes by decomposition of diazo esters is reported. The vinylcyclopropanes generated are isolated in practical chemical yields with high levels of regioselectivity but low diastereoselectivity. The system operates under mild reaction conditions, is scalable, and tolerates various sensitive functional groups. A series of original postcatalytic derivatizations is presented to highlight the synthetic potential of the catalytic method.

The catalytic asymmetric synthesis of highly functionalized cyclopropanes from 2-substituted allylic derivatives is reported. Using ethyl diazo acetate, the reaction, catalyzed by a chiral ruthenium complex (Ru(II)-Pheox), furnished the corresponding easily separable cis and trans cyclopropanes in moderate to high yields (32-97 %) and excellent ee (86-99 %). This approach significantly extends the portfolio of accessible enantioenriched cyclopropanes from an underexplored class of olefins.

Article Synopsis
- Cyclopropane compounds are important in organic synthesis and pharmaceuticals, leading to the development of a new reagent called CHI(Bpin) for creating cyclopropylboronates from alkenes.
- This reagent can be easily produced in large quantities from common starting materials and allows for efficient synthesis with high selectivity and compatibility with various functional groups.
- The process uses a mechanism involving radical reactions and is facilitated by a photocatalyst under visible light, enabling the modification of complex molecules at later stages.
A Widely Applicable and Versatile Method for the Ring-Opening 1,3-Carbocarbonation of Donor-Acceptor Cyclopropanes.

A 1,3-carbocarbonation of 2-substituted cyclopropane 1,1-dicarboxylates introduces various saturated or unsaturated carbon residues at the 1- and 3- position of the former three-membered ring. Under copper catalysis, ring-opening attack with a Grignard reagent proceeded smoothly; the intermediate was converted to the final product by reaction with appropriate carbon-based electrophiles under basic conditions. As nucleophiles, Grignard reagents derived from sp -, sp -, and sp-hybridized carbon residues were successfully employed, whereas various aliphatic bromides and EBX derivatives (for sp moieties) served as electrophiles.

Palladium catalyzes the cyclopropanation of 2-substituted 1,1-diborylalkenes with (trimethylsilyl)diazomethane. The relative stereoselectivity is controlled via a carbene insertion sequence generating an exclusive conformation between the R and SiMe substituents. Mixed 1,1-diborylalkenes also contributed to the formation of stereoselective B, B, Si-cyclopropanes.
