Abstract
Abstract Cyclobutenes 1–3 react with diazomethane covering the complete range of facial selectivity. Non planarity of the double bond moiety and consequent energetic asymmetry of out-of-plane distortions, mainly due to π/C-X and π/C-H interactions, parallel the stereochemistry of cycloaddition.
