Abstract
The Kulinkovich cyclopropanation reaction provides a flexible and convenient method for the synthesis of cyclopropanols. Together with the diverse chemistry of the cyclopropanol unit, it offers access to a wide range of functionalised unsaturated and saturated compounds. The successful use in the synthesis of natural compounds is outlined in this perspective.
