The Kulinkovich reaction describes the organic synthesis of substituted cyclopropanols through reaction of esters with dialkyl­dialkoxy­titanium reagents, which are generated in situ from Grignard reagents containing a hydrogen in beta-position and titanium(IV) alkoxides such as titanium isopropoxide.Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag

In broad strokes, and in a formal retrosynthetic sense, titanacyclopropane 1 behaves like a 1,2-dianion which adds into the ester twice: after the first addition into the ester, the resultant tetrahedral intermediate 2 collapses to give β-titanio ketone 3, which undergoes a second intramolecular addition to give the titanium salt of the cyclopropanol (4). (This species then undergoes transmetalation with Grignard reagent to regenerate 1 and close the catalytic cycle and give the product in the form of the magnesium salt (5).)

Reaction mechanism

The reaction mechanism has been the subject of theoretical analysis.[1] Certain points remain nevertheless obscure. Intermediate titanium complexes of the ate type have been proposed by Kulinkovich.[2]

Ligand exchange with olefins

In 1993, the team of Kulinkovich highlighted the aptitude of the titanacyclopropanes to undergo ligand exchange with olefins.[3] This discovery was important, because it gave access to cyclopropanols more functionalized by making economic use of the Grignard of which normally at least two equivalents should have been engaged to obtain good yields. Cha and its team introduced the use of cyclic Grignard reagents, particularly adapted for these reactions.[4]

Ligand exchange with olefins

The methodology has been extended to intramolecular reactions[5]

With amides instead of esters the reaction product is an aminocyclopropane in the De Meijere variation[6][7]

In the Szymoniak variation the substrate is a nitrile and the reaction product a cyclopropane with a primary amine group.[18][19]

The reaction mechanism is akin the Kulinkovich reaction:
