Synthesis of 1,2-divinylcyclopropanes by metal-catalyzed cyclopropanation of 1,3-dienes with cyclopropenes as vinyl carbene precursors

The synthesis of 1,2-divinylcyclopropanes by the reaction of cyclopropenes with 1,3-dienes is reported. The process relies on the ability of ZnCl2 or [Rh2(OAc)4] to generate metal–vinyl carbene intermediates from cyclopropenes, which effect cyclopropanation of 1,3-dienes. Most of the reactions proce...
