radical-initiated ring expansion rearrangement of the in situ formed vinyl cyclopropenone intermediate. The reaction, catalyzed by an earth-abundant metal complex, occurs under milder conditions, generating water and hydrogen gas as byproducts. Rigorous control experiments and detailed computational studies were conducted to unravel the underlying mechanism. The observed selectivity is explained by entropy-driven
