I know as of patch 4.2? that if you register/buy WoW vanilla you get burning crusade for free.
But what if i buy a burning crusade cd key, do i automatically get vanilla?

I think you should, I'm not sure thou.
Check it out on the store, or contact Blizzard about it.
No. No you dont.
why would you do it the other way around ?
BC cdkeys are useless now. They literally have no use. You would be paying for nothing.
"The Burning Crusade expansion is now part of all standard edition accounts and unfortunately any unused cd-keys for that expansion are no longer viable.
The only exception would be if you had an unused Burning Crusade Collector's Edition. That may still be added to an existing accounts to grant the account the special CE vanity pet. " - Vrakthris (Blue poster on official forums)

I found that thread and post about 20 seconds after I did a search on it. Google is your friend.

As you're asking about cd-keys and not about buying the box - are you buying from a cdkey site? If so, and they're still selling tbc keys... find a different site. If you're buying it for the box that's one thing, but if you're just buying a cd key it's useless. The cd key site that I use (legitimate before anyone asks - you can just buy keys and game cards online on some reliable sites without having to purchase the box or buy from blizzard) removed TBC keys when they bundled it in with vanilla.
