Popis: A two-step procedure for the preparation of cyclopropanecarboxaldehyde-1,1-diester from a γ,δ-epoxyester and its synthetic versatility are described herein. The epoxide ring-opening/cyclopropanation process occurs in the presence of Mg(ClO4)2 under heating, resulting in cyclopropanemethanol-1,1-diester in 65% yield. A mild TEMPO-mediated oxidation of this substrate readily generated the corresponding aldehyde in 75% yield, which was applied in the one-pot synthesis of four cyclopropylidene-γ-lactams and three δ-lactams. In addition, vinylcyclopropanes were obtained through the Wittig reaction of the aldehyde with phosphonium salts and used as precursors for tetrahydrofurans.
