Abstract

The reaction of 1-aryl-2,2,2-trifluorodiazoethanes with alkenes, catalyzed by the adamantylglycine-derived dirhodium complex Rh2(R-PTAD)4, generates trifluoromethyl-substituted cyclopropanes with high diastereoselectivity (>94%) and enantioselectivity (88−>98%).

Misaki Uehara, Hidehiro Suematsu, Yoichi Yasutomi, and Tsutomu KatsukiJournal of the American Chemical Society2011 133 (2), 170-171Ir(salen) complexes were found to catalyze enantioselective cyclopropenation efficiently. Cyclopropenation can be carried out using either a donor/acceptor- or an acceptor/acceptor-substituted diazo compound such as α-aryl-α-diazoacetates, α-phenyl-α-...
