Total synthesis of natural products often requires installation of double bond without adding carbon. Bamford‐Stevens and Shapiro reactions offer an option to execute such transformation. Several developments have been made in these reactions and their applications in a diverse area of chemistry. Lack of a dedicated review on these reactions in the recent time is hampering an access to collective information and a critical analysis of the new developments. This minireview highlights methodological developments and applications of Bamford‐Stevens and Shapiro reactions in organic synthesis published in the past ten years.
