The transformations of cyclopropenes have attracted the attention of organic chemists for decades. As readily accessible strained carbocycles, cyclopropenes show a diverse range of reactivities. This feature article focuses on the developments of cyclopropenes from 2016 until the end of 2019, including reactions through vinylmetal carbenes, reactions through metal complex insertion, addition reactions with 1,3-dipole, radical reactions of cyclopropenes, and reactions of highly reactive in situ generated cyclopropenes. In addition, several new synthetic methods and applications of cyclopropenes are also disclosed in this paper.
几十年来，环丙烯的转化一直吸引着有机化学家的关注。作为易于获得的张力碳环，环丙烯展现出多种多样的反应活性。这篇专题文章聚焦于2016年至2019年底环丙烯的研究进展，包括通过乙烯基金属卡宾的反应、通过金属配合物插入的反应、与1,3 -偶极子的加成反应、环丙烯的自由基反应以及原位生成的高活性环丙烯的反应。此外，本文还披露了几种环丙烯的新合成方法及应用。
