Abstract
2-Nitrocyclopropanes bearing ketones, amides, esters, and carboxylic acids in the 1 position may be accessed as single diastereoisomers in one operation from the corresponding unsaturated carbonyl compounds. The source of the nitro-methylene component is nitromethane. The reaction proceeds at room temperature under mild conditions. The products may be converted into, e.g., cyclopropyl-amino acids in a single step. Both nitrocyclopropanes and amino-cyclopropanes are unique moieties found in biologically active compounds and natural products.
