Although they are highly strained, methylenecyclopropanes (MCPs) readily accessible molecules that have served as useful building blocks in organic synthesis. MCPs can undergo a variety of ring-opening reactions because the release cyclopropyl ring strain (40 kcal/mol) provide thermodynamic driving force for and π-character bonds within cyclopropane afford kinetic opportunity to initiate ring-opening. Since 1970s, chemistry has been widely explored presence transition metal catalysts, but...

Significant progress in the development of Morita–Baylis–Hillman (MBH) reaction has been made past decade. Many new variations MBH have well exploited, affording unexpected products and novel cyclized adducts some cases, known as "abnormal reactions". The formation abnormal MBHadducts depends on nature substrates employed catalytic system. This article will summarize recent advances mechanistic insights into such "abnormal" reactions, including double-MBH sila-MBH aza-MBH reactions tandem pathways.
