Abstract:2,3-Disubstituted cyclopropane-1-carbonitriles were efficiently formed via a selective decarboxylation reaction of substituted 2-aroyl-3-aryl-1-cyano-cyclopropane-1-carboxylates in up to 92% yield. The structures of three typical compounds were confirmed by X-ray crystallography.
Multisubstituted furan derivatives were synthesized effectively using the DBU-mediated, unprecedented formal ring expansion reactions of 2-acyl-3-arylcyclopropane-1,1-dicarbonitriles.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
