Addition of Halides to Cyclopropylidenes in Liquid SO2

Paul Walden 11th Symposium on Organic Chemistry: Abstract Book 2019
Kristaps Leškovskis, Māris Turks

Methylenecyclopropanes (MCPs) are easily accessible yet highly strained and reactive building blocks. MCP can be readily opened under transition metal or Lewis acid catalyzed conditions. We have hypothesized that a highly polar and Lewis acidic reaction medium could facilitate the ring opening of MCPs with simple nucleophiles. We have recently shown that liquid sulfur dioxide perfectly fulfils the aforementioned solvent requirements.
