Abstract
A highly regioselective C-C bond cleavage of the cyclopropane rings occurs in substituted allenylcyclopropanes in the presence of cationic rhodium(I) complexes. Thus, ring expansion of readily accessible allenylcyclopropanes can be achieved to give 3-methylenecyclopentenes, which could have applications as multifunctional synthetic building blocks. © 1998 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH, Weinheim, Fed.
