21 Abstract: An unexpected MgI2-promoted [2 + 4] cycloaddition reaction of in-situ generated 2-styrylmalonate
22 from donor-acceptor cyclopropanes with chalconimines to synthesize highly substituted indenopyridine
23 derivatives under the mild reaction conditions have been developed. Additionally, these derivatives were
24 utilized for the synthesis of highly substituted 9-membered lactam by oxidative C=C bond cleavage and spiro
25 [oxoindane-pyrrolidine] derivative via Meinwald type rearrangement.

42 materials has received significant attention. Most commonly, in-situ generated 2-styrylmalonate

45 been reported in the literature where cyclopropane
46 diesters were used as a source of 2-styrylmalonates. In
47 2014, Wang et al. reported AlCl3-promoted formal
48 [2 + 3]-cycloaddition of DACs with N-benzylic sulpho-
49 namides where DACs serves as a source of 2-

4 3 aa (Table 1, entry 3). Increased dosage of MgI2 up to
5 50 mol% gave almost similar yield (Table 1, entry 4,
6 5). But further increment of MgI2 up to 100 mol%,

9 efficiency of the reaction with other magnesium
10 containing Lewis acids. Magnesium halides, such as
11 chloride and bromide, Mg(OTf)2 were ineffective for
12 the reaction at 20 mol% of catalyst loading at room

14 series of indium containing Lewis acids, like InCl3,
15 InI3, In(OTf)3 were also employed, decomposition of
16 DAC 1 a and chalconimine 2 a was observed, leading
17 to a complex mixture (See SI). Relatively weak Lewis
