Abstract
We

studies
on

of
carbonyl
cyclopropanes
to
give
biradical
intermediates,
leading

cleavage

Depending

extended

were
isolated
or

bicyclic

Based
these
results,
unified
reductive
ring‐opening
reaction
was
developed
by
using
diphenyl
disulfide
as
hydrogen
atom

(HAT)
reagent.
By
performing

reaction,
we
achieved
