Chiral cis-cyclopropanes are strained rigid analogues of alkyl chains, whose study and application are limited by their difficult synthesis. A modular approach from olefin materials is enabled by the discovery of the electron donor-acceptor (EDA) interaction between 2-substituted benzothiazolines and N-hydroxyphthalimide esters. These complexes are activated by visible light without photocatalysts, and the benzothiazoline reagent plays a triple role as a photoreductant, a stereoselective hydrogen-atom donor, and a Br?nsted acid. Beyond the enantioselective synthesis of cis-cyclopropanes, these results introduce benzothiazolines as accessible and easily tunable self-sensitized photoreductants.
Reductive Ring-Opening 1,3-Difunctionalizations of Arylcyclopropanes with Sodium Metal

Sodium dispersion promotes reductive ring opening of arylcyclopropanes. The presence of a reduction-resistant electrophile, such as methoxypinacolatoborane, epoxide, oxetane, paraformaldehyde, or chlorotrimethylsilane, during the reductive ring opening event leads to the formation of 1,3-difunctionalized 1-arylalkanes by immediate trappings of the resulting two reactive carbanions. In particular, the ring-opening 1,3-diborylations of arylcyclopropanes afford 1,3-diborylalkanes with high syn selectivity.
