    Abstract:
    We have developed gold(I)-catalyzed oxidative cyclopropanation of 1,6-enynes derived from propiolamides employing diphenyl sulfoxide as an oxidant. 1,6-Enynes having a terminal alkyne and a propiolamide tether efficiently transformed into cyclopropane carboxaldehyde derivatives.

    A highly atom- and step-economy and diastereoselective copper-mediated direct intramolecular cyclopropanation method to synthesize cyclopropane-fused γ-lactones and lactams from distal olefinic acetate was disclosed.

    The synthesis of enantiomerically-enriched trans-cyclopropane amino- and hydroxy-acids can be achieved by intramolecular ring closure in moderate to good yields. The optically active cyclopropane precursors are easily prepared in a short sequence from inexpensive, commercially available olefins and tert-butyl acetate. Several leaving groups and bases were compared for the cyclopropanation step, showing that the diphenylphosphinate and tosyl leaving groups give the best results when used in combination with either LDA or NaHMDS.

    Abstract This procedure opens up a route to the syntheses of pharmaceutical and natural products as DCG‐IV (VII), an anticonvulsant agent, and dysibetaine CPa (IX), a marine natural product of pharmacological interest.

    The carbene-like reactivity of the Kukhtin–Ramirez adduct enables the first reductive intramolecular cyclopropanation, which provides easy access to highly functionalized cyclopropane-fused heterocycles.

    The first highly enantioselective intramolecular cyclopropanation of electron-deficient olefins, in the presence of Ru(II)--Pheox catalyst, is reported. The corresponding cyclopropane-fused γ-lactones were obtained in high yields (up to 99%) with excellent enantioselectivities (ee up to 99%). Moreover, this method enables efficient access to enantioenriched dicarbonyl cyclopropane derivatives, which are important intermediates for the synthesis of various bioactive compounds.
