The strong electron-donating character of the triazene renders the cyclopropanes highly reactive, allowing for catalyst-free ring-opening reactions with methanol and tetracyanoethylene under mild conditions. The triazene-substituted cyclopropanes could also be used as substrates in Lewis acid catalyzed (3 + 2) annulations with silyl enol ethers.text::journal::journal article::research article
