Bicyclic alkenes, including Oxa- and azabicyclic alkenes can be readily activated by using transition-metal complexes with facial selectivity, because of the intrinsic angle strain on carbon-carbon double bonds of these unsymmetrical bicyclic systems. During last decades considerable progress has been done in the area of ring-opening of bicyclic strained ring by employing the concept of C-H activation. This Review comprehensively compiles the various C-H bond activation assisted reactions of oxa- and azabicyclic alkenes, viz., ring-opening reactions, hydroarylation as well as annulation reactions.

This review covers new trends towards the selective synthesis of organoboron compounds where boron reagents and cyclic substrates participate in the generation of carbanions, in the presence of stoichiometric amounts of main-group metals or catalytic amounts of transition metal complexes, via ring opening coupling transformations.

The highly electron-deficient cyanocarbons tetracyanoethene (tcne) and, to a lesser extent, tetracyanoquinodimethane (tcnq), display a fascinating chemistry with transition metal substrates. In particular, the [2 + 2]-cycloadditions of the cyanocarbons with alkynyl- or poly-ynyl–metal complexes have been extensively studied by the author’s group. These reactions proceed via polar adducts to give σ-cyclobutenyl complexes, which then undergo facile ring-opening (retro-electrocyclic) reactions to form the corresponding butadienyl derivatives. In some cases, further reactions can occur by displacement of weakly bound ligands from the metal centre. The subsequent chemistry of these derivatives has been only cursorily investigated, while related studies of organic analogues have produced molecules with interesting electronic and optical properties.
