title: B(C6F5)3-Catalyzed Ring Opening and Isomerization of Unactivated Cyclopropanes.
abstract: Catalytic amounts of B(C6F5)3promote the ring opening and subsequent isomerization of a series of unactivated cyclopropanes to afford terminal olefins in good yields when a hydrosilane and 2,6-dibromopyridine are employed as additives.
