Abstract
The selective construction of bridged bicyclic scaffolds has garnered increasing attention because of their extensive use as saturated bioisosteres of arene in pharmaceutical industry. However, in sharp contrast to their racemic counterparts, assembling chiral bridged bicyclic structures in an enantioselective and regioselective manner remains challenging. Herein, we describe our protocol for constructing chiral 2-oxa-3-azabicyclo[3.1.1]heptanes (BCHeps) by enantioselective [4π + 2σ] cycloadditions of bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes (BCBs) and nitrones taking advantage of a chiral copper(II) complex as a Lewis acid catalyst. This method features mild conditions, good functional group tolerance, high yield (up to 99%), and excellent enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee). Density functional theory (DFT) calculation elucidates the origin of the reaction's enantioselectivity and the mechanism of BCB activation by Cu(II) complex.

Abstract
A dual InBr3-EtAlCl2 Lewis acidic system was found to be optimal for promoting the diastereoselective (3 + 2)-cycloaddition of donor-acceptor cyclopropanes with in situ-generated ketenes to form cyclopentanones. The desired products were formed in good to excellent yields (70-93% for 16 examples) and with good to excellent diastereoselectivity and enantiospecificity.

Abstract
A new method for the synthesis of 1-aryl-2,3-diaroyl cyclopropanes has been developed by iodine/DBU-mediated cyclization of 1,3,5-triaryl-1,5-diketones. The alcohols derived by the reduction of these cyclopropanes, when treated with conc. HCl, afforded a series of 1,3-dienes through cyclopropyl ring-opening and subsequent fragmentation. Overall, the synthetic sequence represents a new non-Wittig methodology for the synthesis of 1,3-dienes from 1,5-diketones.

Abstract
We disclose herein a novel photoredox and cobalt co-catalyzed ring-opening/acceptorless dehydrogenative functionalization of mono-donor cyclopropanes. This sustainable and atom-economic approach allows the rapid assembly of a wide range of allylic N,O-acyl-acetal derivatives. The starting materials are readily available and the reaction features mild conditions, broad substrate scope, and excellent functional group compatibility. The optimized conditions accommodate assorted cycloalkylamides and primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols, with applications in late-stage functionalization of pharmaceutically relevant compounds, stimulating further utility in medicinal chemistry. Moreover, selective nucleophilic substitutions with various carbon nucleophiles were achieved in a one-pot fashion, offering a reliable avenue to access some cyclic and acyclic derivatives.

Abstract
Most of the known rearrangement reactions of donor-acceptor cyclopropanes (DACs) involve the migration of cationic carbon atom to anionic carbon or heteroatoms in 1,3- or 1,4-positions. In the present work, we observed that spiro DACs based on 1,3-indanedione or 1-indanone moiety undergo intramolecular 1,2-aroyl migration when treated with titanium(IV) chloride to afford 1,4-naphthoquinones and α-naphthols readily. The reactions take place through the formation of putative 1,3-dipolar intermediates, followed by cleavage and migration of the aroyl group to the adjacent carbon to afford the ring-expansion products.

Abstract
Chiral chloro-indeno pybox has served as a new ligand for the Yb(OTf)3-catalyzed asymmetric Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction of indoles with nitroalkenes. The tunable nature of pybox ligands enables the rational design of catalysts for optimal performance in terms of both activity and stereoselectivity in a Friedel-Crafts-type reaction. Good to excellent yields and enantioselectivities were obtained for a relatively wide range of substrates, including sterically hindered compounds, under optimized reaction conditions.

Abstract
A series of benzo[d]pyrrolo[2,1-b]thiazoles was synthesized by (3 + 2) annulation of aroyl-substituted donor-acceptor cyclopropanes with benzothiazoles. The annulation, promoted by a substoichiometric amount of Sc(OTf)3, takes place through the formation of the respective dearomatized (3 + 2) adducts, followed by unexpected decarbethoxylative and dehydrogenative rearomatization to afford fully aromatized products. The unusual reactivity is attributed to the presence of an extra aroyl group in the donor-acceptor cyclopropanes.

Abstract
Ring-opening transformations of donor-acceptor (D-A) cyclopropanes enable the rapid assembly of complex molecules. However, the enantioselective formation of chiral quaternary stereocenters using substrates bearing two different acceptors remains a challenge. Herein, we describe the first palladium-catalyzed highly diastereo- and enantioselective (3+2) cycloaddition of vinyl cyclopropanes bearing two different electron-withdrawing groups, a subset of D-A cyclopropanes. The key to the success of this reaction is the remote stereoinduction through hydrogen bond from chiral ligands, which thereby addressed the aforementioned challenge. A variety of chiral five-membered heterocycles were produced in good yields and with high stereoselectivity (up to 99 % yields, 99 : 1 er and >19 : 1 dr). In-depth mechanistic investigations, including control experiments and theoretical calculations, revealed the origin of the stereoselectivity and the importance of H-bonding in stereocontrol.

Abstract
We herein report a method for divergent copper salt controlled reactions of donor-acceptor cyclopropanes and N-fluorobenzene sulfonimide (NFSI). Specifically, in the presence of CuX2 (X=Cl, Br), the cyclopropanes underwent formal umpolung 1,3-aminohalogenation bifunctionalization via a free radical mediated ring-opening process to afford 1,3-aminochlorination and 1,3-aminobromination products in moderate to good yields. In addition, by using CuI as a catalyst, we synthesized various aminoindane derivatives via 1,3-aminoarylation cyclization of D-A cyclopropanes, the reactions involved a free radical mediated ring-opening and subsequent ring expansion via C-H bond activation.

Abstract
A novel class of highly activated donor-acceptor cyclopropanes bearing only a single, vinylogous acceptor is presented. These strained moieties readily undergo cycloadditions with aldehydes, ketones, thioketones, nitriles, naphth-2-ols and various other substrates to yield the corresponding carbo- and heterocycles. Diastereocontrol can be achieved through the choice of catalyst (Brønsted or Lewis acid). The formation of tetrahydrofurans was shown to be highly enantiospecific when chiral cyclopropanes are employed. A series of mechanistic and kinetic experiments was conducted to elucidate a plausible catalytic cycle and to rationalize the stereochemical outcome.

This review aims at providing an overview of the most significant applications of fluorine-containing ligands reported in the literature starting from 2001 until mid-2021. The ligands are classified according to the nature of the donor atoms involved. This review highlights both metal-ligand interactions and the structure-reactivity relationships resulting from the presence of the fluorine atom or fluorine-containing substituents on chiral catalysts.

Abstract
The mechanism and diastereoselectivity of the cycloaddition reaction between D-A spirocyclopropane and aldehydes, catalyzed by para-toluenesulfonic acid (TsOH) in dichloromethane to produce 2,5-disubstituted tetrahydrofuran-type lignans, have been investigated by density functional theory (DFT) at the M06-2X/6-311+G(d,p)//B3LYP-D3/6-31G(d,p) level combined with the solvation SMD model. Our calculations show that the entire reaction process includes three stages: the activation of the D-A cyclopropane by Brønsted acid, TsOH, the nucleophilic attack of the aldehyde on the spirocyclopropane, and the formation of the final product, 2,5-disubstituted tetrahydrofuran. It was concluded from the conceptual density functional theory (CDFT) reactivity index analysis that aldehydes with electron-rich substituents are more nucleophilic and more favorable for the reaction to proceed. Furthermore, based on the analyses of energetics as well as the noncovalent interaction (NCI) and reduced density gradient (RDG) in the key transition states, the origin of stereoselectivity was revealed to be determined thermodynamically rather than kinetically. The present work explains the experimental phenomenon well, and provides useful theoretical information for the future design of similar reactions.

Abstract
In contrast to the extensive but non-recyclable use of tetraalkoxydiboron(4) compounds as stoichiometric reagents in diverse reactions, this article reports an atom-economical reaction using a commercial diboron(4) as the catalyst. The key to success was designing a catalytic cycle for radical [3 + 2] cycloaddition involving a pyridine cocatalyst to generate from the diboron(4) catalyst and reversibly mediate the transfer of boronyl radicals. In comparison with known [3 + 2] cycloaddition with transition metal-based catalysts, the current reaction features not only metal-free conditions, inexpensive and stable catalysts, and simple operation but also remarkably broadened substrate scope. In particular, previously unusable cyclopropyl ketones without an activating group and/or alkenes with 1,2-disubstitution and 1,1,2-trisubstitution patterns were successfully used for the first time. Consequently, challenging cyclopentane compounds with various levels of substitution (65 examples, 57 new products, up to six substituents at all five ring atoms) were readily prepared in generally high to excellent yield and diastereoselectivity. The reaction was also successfully applied in concise formal synthesis of an anti-obesity drug and building natural product-like complex bridged or spirocyclic compounds. Mechanistic experiments and computational investigation support the proposed radical relay catalysis featuring a pyridine-assisted boronyl radical catalyst. Overall, this work demonstrates the first approach to use tetraalkoxydiboron(4) compounds as catalysts and may lead to the development of new, green, and efficient transition metal-like boron-catalyzed organic reactions.

Abstract
gem-Difluorocyclopropane diester is disclosed as a new type of donor–acceptor cyclopropane, which smoothly participates in (3 + 2)-cycloadditions with various aldehydes and ketones. This work represents the first application of gem-difluorine substituents as an unconventional donor group for activating cyclopropane substrates in catalytic cycloaddition reactions. With this method, a wide variety of densely functionalized gem-difluorotetrahydrofuran skeletons, which are otherwise difficult to prepare, could be readily assembled in high yields under mild reaction conditions. Computational studies show that the cleavage of the C–C bond between the difluorine and diester moieties occurs upon a SN2-type attack of the carbonyl oxygen. A new type of donor–acceptor cyclopropane with gem-difluorine as an unconventional donor group undergoes (3 + 2)-cycloadditions with various aldehydes/ketones, affording densely functionalized gem-difluorotetrahydrofurans.![]()

Abstract
Diazomalonates have been demonstrated as effective metalloradicophiles for asymmetric radical olefin cyclopropanation via Co(II)-metalloradical catalysis (MRC). Supported by D 2-symmetric chiral amidoporphyrin ligand, Co(II)-based metalloradical system can efficiently activate unsymmetrical methyl phenyl diazomalonate (MPDM) with effective differentiation of the two ester groups for asymmetric cyclopropanation, enabling stereoselective construction of 1,1-cyclopropanediesters bearing two contiguous chiral centers, including all-carbon quaternary stereogenic center. The Co(II)-catalyzed asymmetric cyclopropanation, which operates at room temperature without slow addition of the diazo compound, is generally applicable to broad-ranging olefins and tolerates various functionalities, providing a streamlined synthesis of chiral 1,1-cyclopropanediesters in high yields with both high diastereoselectivity and enantioselectivity. Combined computational and experimental studies support the underlying stepwise radical mechanism for Co(II)-catalyzed cyclopropanation. In addition to functioning as 1,3-dipoles for forming five-membered structures, enantioenriched (E)-1,1-cyclopropanediesters serve as useful building blocks for stereoselective synthesis of different cyclopropane derivatives. In addition, the enantioenriched (E)-1,1-cyclopropanediesters can be stereoselectively converted to (Z)-diastereomers.

Abstract
We report here that polysubstituted cyclopent-2-enols can be constructed by the one-pot reaction of doubly activated cyclopropanes and α-EWG substituted acetonitriles under mild basic conditions via a domino-ring-opening-cyclization/deacylation/oxidation sequence. Moreover, the synthetic applications of these cyclopent-2-enols have been demonstrated in the late-stage derivatization into functionalized cyclopentapyrimidin-4-ones and 2-hydroxy cyclopentanones with good yields.

Abstract
We present (3+2)- and (4+2)-cycloadditions of donor-acceptor (D-A) cyclopropanes and cyclobutanes with N-sulfinylamines and a sulfur diimide, along with a one-pot, two-step strategy for the formal insertion of HNSO2 into D-A cyclopropanes. These are rare examples of cycloadditions with D-A cyclopropanes and cyclobutanes whereby the 2π component consists of two different heteroatoms, thus leading to five- and six-membered rings containing adjacent heteroatoms.

Abstract
A unified catalytic asymmetric (N+1) (N=4, 5) annulation reaction of oxindoles with bifunctional peroxides has been achieved in the presence of a chiral phase-transfer catalyst (PTC). This general strategy utilizes peroxides as unique bielectrophilic four- or five-atom synthons to participate in the C-C and the subsequent umpolung C-O bond-forming reactions with one-carbon unit nucleophiles, thus providing a distinct method to access the valuable chiral spirooxindole-tetrahydrofurans and -tetrahydropyrans with good yields and high enantioselectivities under mild conditions. DFT calculations were performed to rationalize the origin of high enantioselectivity. The gram-scale syntheses and synthetic utility of the resultant products were also demonstrated.

Abstract
The chiral oxazoline motif is present in many ligands that have been extensively applied in a series of important metal-catalyzed enantioselective reactions. This Review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the most significant applications of oxazoline-containing ligands reported in the literature starting from 2009 until the end of 2018. The ligands are classified not by the reaction to which their metal complexes have been applied but by the nature of the denticity, chirality, and donor atoms involved. As a result, the continued development of ligand architectural design from mono(oxazolines), to bis(oxazolines), to tris(oxazolines) and tetra(oxazolines) and variations thereof can be more easily monitored by the reader. In addition, the key transition states of selected asymmetric transformations will be given to illustrate the features that give rise to high levels of asymmetric induction. As a further aid to the reader, we summarize the majority of schemes with representative examples that highlight the variation in % yields and % ees for carefully selected substrates. This Review should be of particular interest to the experts in the field but also serve as a useful starting point to new researchers in this area. It is hoped that this Review will stimulate both the development/design of new ligands and their applications in novel metal-catalyzed asymmetric transformations.

Abstract
Reactions of styrylmalonates with aromatic aldehydes in the presence of Lewis and Brønsted acids and their regularities have been studied in detail. Approaches to the synthesis of various polysubstituted 5,6-dihydropyran-2-ones, indenes, aryl-containing dienes and trienes, cyclopentadienes, and polycyclic lactones have been developed with chemo-, regio-, stereo-, and diastereoselectivity control. The mechanisms of these reactions were studied in depth using multinuclear NMR experiments, monitoring the reactions in the NMR tube, and 18O isotope labeling.

Abstract
In this article, we investigated the I2-promoted cyclic dialkyl ether formation from 6-membered oxanickelacycles originally reported by Hillhouse. A detailed mechanistic investigation based on spectroscopic and crystallographic analysis revealed that a putative reductive elimination to forge C(sp3)-OC(sp3) using I2 might not be operative. We isolated a paramagnetic bimetallic NiIII intermediate featuring a unique Ni2(OR)2 (OR = alkoxide) diamond-like core complemented by a μ-iodo bridge between the two Ni centers, which remains stable at low temperatures, thus permitting its characterization by NMR, EPR, X-ray, and HRMS. At higher temperatures (>-10 °C), such bimetallic intermediate thermally decomposes to afford large amounts of elimination products together with iodoalkanols. Observation of the latter suggests that a C(sp3)-I bond reductive elimination occurs preferentially to any other challenging C-O bond reductive elimination. Formation of cyclized THF rings is then believed to occur through cyclization of an alcohol/alkoxide to the recently forged C(sp3)-I bond. The results of this article indicate that the use of F+ oxidants permits the challenging C(sp3)-OC(sp3) bond formation at a high-valent nickel center to proceed in good yields while minimizing deleterious elimination reactions. Preliminary investigations suggest the involvement of a high-valent bimetallic NiIII intermediate which rapidly extrudes the C-O bond product at remarkably low temperatures. The new set of conditions permitted the elusive synthesis of diethyl ether through reductive elimination, a remarkable feature currently beyond the scope of Ni.

Abstract
A manganese-catalyzed site- and enantiodifferentiating oxidation of C(sp3)-H bonds in saturated cyclic ethers has been described. The mild and practical method is applicable to a range of tetrahydrofurans, tetrahydropyrans, and medium-sized cyclic ethers with multiple stereocenters and diverse substituent patterns in high efficiency with extremely efficient site- and enantiodiscrimination. Late-stage application in complex biological active molecules was further demonstrated. Mechanistic studies by combined experiments and computations elucidated the reaction mechanism and origins of stereoselectivity. The ability to employ ether substrates as the limiting reagent, together with a broad substrate scope, and a high level of chiral recognition, represent a valuable demonstration of the utility of asymmetric C(sp3)-H oxidation in complex molecule synthesis.

Abstract
Toluene, p-xylene and mesitylene were cleanly converted to their corresponding monoaldehydes via mild photooxygenation utilizing transition metal and main group β-CF3-substituted corroles. Aldehyde yield increased as more electron-donating CH3 groups are present on the substrate. 4-P was most efficient (TON ∼ 1072, mesitylene) via the singlet oxygen vis the superoxide mechanism.

Abstract
Spiro[imidazol-5-one-4,1'-cyclopropanes] behave as donor-acceptor (D-A) cyclopropanes in a formal cycloaddition reaction with aldehydes. The activation of such type of cyclopropanes is achieved with an equivalent of Brønsted acid. The reaction proceeds in high yields of 51-92% and demonstrates moderate diastereoselectivity at the quaternary stereocenter, which is determined by the electron-donating nature of the aldehyde partner. The ease of separation of stereoisomers allowed the creation of a library of 44 spiroannulated tetrahydrofurans with various substitution patterns.

Abstract
Arynes and donor-acceptor (D-A) cyclopropanes are two classes of strained systems having the potential for numerous applications in organic synthesis. The last two decades have witnessed a renaissance of interest in the chemistry of these species primarily because of the mild and robust methods for their generation or activation. Commonly, arynes as easily polarizable systems result in 1,2-disubstitution, whereas D-A cyclopropanes as polarized systems lead to 1,3-bisfunctionalization thereby showing striking similarities. Transformations with 1,2- and 1,3-dipoles afford cyclic structures. With arynes, emerging four-membered rings as intermediates might react further, whereas the analogous five-membered rings obtained from D-A cyclopropanes are most often the final products. However, there are a few cases where these intermediates behave surprisingly differently. This Minireview highlights the parallels in reactivity between arynes and D-A cyclopropanes thereby shedding light on the neglected similarities of these two reactive species.
