Despite the long history and interesting properties of propellanes, these compounds still have tremendous potential to be exploited in synthetic organic chemistry. Herein we disclose an experimentally simple procedure to achieve cyclobutane-containing allenes and alkynes through a copper-catalyzed ring opening of [1.1.1]propellane and subsequent reaction with ethynes.
