Abstract

The relatively facile preparation and better reaction profiles of non-C3-substituted silylated cyclopropenes relative to other cyclopropenes prompted us to choose them as the substrate platform for further exploration of the rearrangement of cyclopropenes to allenes. These non-C3-substituted cyclopropenes
