Considerable interest has recently been focused on the nucleophilic ringopening reaction of geminally activated cyclopropanes 2 and the reactions with thiols 3 or amines 4 were utilized as a crucial step for construction of complex molecules. In this paper, we wish to report the ring-opening reactio
