Ruthenium-Catalyzed Difunctionalization of Vinyl Cyclopropanes for Double m -C(sp 2 )-H/C-5(sp 3 )-H Functionalization.

With in-depth research on 1,2-difunctionalization, remote difunctionalization has garnered widespread attention for achieving multifunctionality. Herein, we report a strategy for achieving remote difunctionalization under mild conditions. This strategy exhibited good substrate suitability and functional group tolerance. In addition, the significance of this method is further evidenced by its successful application in scaling up and conducting additional transformations of target compounds. Mechanistic studies showed that a radical might be involved in this process.
