By integration of oxocarbenium activation and Lewis acid coordination via conformational proximity-driven, Pd(II)- or Cu(I)-catalyzed intramolecular ketone haloacylation, regio- stereoselective heterolytic ring-opening 1,5-haloacylation cyclopropyl ketones, including those with weak single alkyl donors, has been developed for the synthesis valuable α-quaternary halo-γ-butenolides. The vicinal carboxylic acceptors are no longer just spectator activators. Further, this reaction delivers a constant regioselectivity regardless electronic nature substituents, even malonate.

Tf2NH-mediated regio- and diastereoselective skeletal metamorphosis of 1-alkynyl-2,3-diaryl-2-methoxycarbonylcyclopropyl ketones readily gave 2,3,4,5-tetraaryl-2,3-dihydrofurans. Controllable reduction removal the ester group then precisely afforded four types eight possible tetrahydrofuran (THF) diastereomers with different (hetero)aryl substituents. Further, deuterium-labeling results revealed an unprecedented hydrogen transfer from formyl C-H bond in tBuOK-promoted decarbonylation under tBuOH-free conditions.

Most of the known rearrangement reactions donor–acceptor cyclopropanes (DACs) involve migration cationic carbon atom to anionic or heteroatoms in 1,3- 1,4-positions. In present work, we observed that spiro DACs based on 1,3-indanedione 1-indanone moiety undergo intramolecular 1,2-aroyl when treated with titanium(IV) chloride afford 1,4-naphthoquinones and α-naphthols readily.
