Bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes (BCBs) and [1.1.1]propellanes (tricyclo[1.1.1.01,3]pentanes, TCPs) are structurally unique compounds with different chemical properties. Strain-release driven reactions have emerged as an atom- step-economic strategy for the organic synthesis. Using this strategy, a variety of functional ring molecules been efficiently synthesized, including various cyclobutane molecules, bicyclo[2.1.1]hexanes, bicyclo[1.1.1]pentanes, others. More specifically, these strain release-driven include aspects nucleophilic addition, radical electrophilic or transition metal catalysis. This review will discuss recent developments in strain-release transformations bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes [1.1.1]propellanes.

Abstract Bicyclobutanes are among the most highly strained isolable organic compounds and their associated low activation barriers to reactivity make them intriguing building-blocks in chemistry. In recent years, numerous creative synthetic strategies exploiting heightened have been presented these discoveries often gone hand-in-hand with development of more practical routes for synthesis. Their proclivity as strain-release reagents through weak central C–C bond has harnessed a variety addition, rearrangement insertion reactions, providing rapid access rich tapestry complex molecular scaffolds. This review will provide an overview different options available bicyclobutane synthesis, main classes that can be prepared from bicyclobutanes, modes used.

The concept of strain in organic compounds is as old modern chemistry and was initially introduced to justify the synthetic setbacks along synthesis small ring systems (pars construens strain). In last decades, chemists have developed an arsenal strain-release reactions destruens strain) which can generate─with significant driving force─rigid aliphatic that act three-dimensional alternatives (hetero)arenes. Photocatalysis added additional dimension processes by leveraging energy photons create chemical complexity under mild conditions. This perspective presents latest advancements photocatalysis─with emphases on mechanisms, catalytic cycles, current limitations─the unique architectures be produced, possible future directions.

Dearomative photocycloadditions are valuable chemical transformations, serving as an efficient platform to create three-dimensional molecular complexity. However, the photolability of original addition product especially within context ortho cycloadditions often causes undesired consecutive rearrangements, rendering these cycloadducts elusive. Herein, we report ortho-selective intermolecular photocycloaddition bicyclic aza-arenes including (iso)quinolines, quinazolines, and quinoxalines by utilizing a strain-release approach. With bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes coupling partners, this dearomative [2π + 2σ] cycloaddition enables straightforward construction C(sp3)-rich bicyclo[2.1.1]hexanes directly connected N-heteroarenes. Photophysical experiments DFT calculations revealed origin selectivity indicate that, in originally proposed energy transfer or direct excitation pathways, chain reaction mechanism is operative depending on conditions.

Abstract Herein, we develop a new approach to directly access architecturally complex polycyclic indolines from readily available indoles and bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes (BCBs) through formal cycloaddition promoted by commercially Lewis acids. The reaction proceeded stepwise pathway involving nucleophilic addition of BCBs followed an intramolecular Mannich form rigid indoline‐fused structures, which resemble indole alkaloids. This tolerated wide range BCBs, thereby allowing the one‐step construction various indoline polycycles containing up four contiguous quaternary carbon centers.
