Abstract

Bicyclo[3.1.0]hex-1-ene is a highly strained bicyclic intermediate that generates trimethylenemethane (TMM) diradical through breaking the C–C bond of its methylene cyclopropane moiety. The reactivity of bicyclo[3.1.0]hex-1-enes and trimethylenemethane (TMM) diradicals depend on the reaction temperature and substitution patterns. This short review covers various strain-induced transformations of bicyclo[3.1.0]hex-1-enes and their formal [3+2] cycloadditions through TMM diradicals and presents synthetic applications to natural products containing triquinane and tropone structures.
