Abstract
We report that oxo- or aza-bridged alkylidenemalononitrile-cycloheptenes undergo a [3,3] ring rearrangement to yield cyclopenta-fused dihydro-furans or pyrroles. Described herein are the origins of the serendipitous discovery, scope studies, and representative functional group interconversion chemistry.
