The oxidation of benzylidenecyclobutane gives rise to both rearranged and unrearranged products. The differences observed in the tendencies of alkylidenecyclobutanes and of cyclobutylmethanols to rearrange in the course of oxidations (or dehydrations) is ascribed in part to a steric effect.

Methylenecyclobutanes undergo an interesting rearrangement reaction in the presence of silver acetate and iodine at room temperature (20 °C) in dichloromethane to give the corresponding aryl-(1-arylcyclobutyl)methanones in good to high yields within short reaction time. A plausible reaction mechanism has been discussed on the basis of control and O18-labeling experiments.

including β-nitro alcohol, α-nitro ketone and nitro nitratosation products with yields up to 90%. Particularly, the cyclopropyl and cyclobutyl rings were conserved in the products. The applicability of this method was demonstrated by the scale-up experiment and reduction of the nitro into an amino group. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggested that the nitro radical was involved in the reaction process.
A divergent fluorination of alkylidenecyclopropanes (ACPs) and alkylidenecyclobutanes (ACBs) with selectfluor has been achieved. Four different types of products including fluorohydrins, fluoroethers, fluoroesters and fluoroketones could be prepared in moderate to excellent yields. In particular, the cyclopropanes and cyclobutanes were not destroyed during the transformations which involved a radical
