The bicyclopropyl system activated by incorporation of donor and acceptor groups in the presence of Lewis acids was used as a synthetic equivalent of 1,6-zwitterions. Opening of both cyclopropane rings in 2'-aryl-1,1'-bicyclopropyl-2,2-dicarboxylates (D-A bicyclopropyl, ABCDs) in the presence of GaI3 + Bu4N+GaI4- results in 5-iodo-5-arylpent-2-enylmalonates as products of HI formal 1,6-addition to the bicyclopropyl system. The use of GaCl3 or GaBr3 as a Lewis acid and terminal aryl or alkyl acetylenes as 1,6-zwitterion interceptors allows the alkyl substituent to be grown to give the corresponding acyclic 7-chloro(bromo)-hepta-2,6-dienylmalonates. The reaction of ABCDs with 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione (PTAD) catalyzed by Yb(OTf)3 also results in the opening of both cyclopropane rings. The reaction products are tetrahydropyridazine derivatives - (7,9-dioxo-1,6,8-triazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-3-en-2-ylmethyl)malonates - containing one more PTAD moiety in the malonyl group.
