Abstract

A simple base promoted intramolecular Michael initiated ring closure reaction of γ-hydroxyenone derived diphenyl phosphinates with 1,3-indandione, enabled the synthesis of novel activated cyclopropanes with homologated carbonyl moiety in good yield. Promising levels of enantioselectivity are achieved when using cinchona derivatives as promoters.
