Free-Radical Carbocyanation of Cyclopropenes: Stereocontrolled Access to All-Carbon Quaternary Stereocenters in Acyclic Systems

摘要

Free-radical carbocyanation of cyclopropenes offers straightforward access to tetrasubstituted cyclopropanes in satisfying yields with moderate diastereoselectivity. The incorporation of various functional groups on the cyclopropane ring allows a subsequent base mediated ring-opening reaction leading to functionalized acyclic systems having an all-carbon quaternary stereocenter.
