Abstract

AbstractThe diazo derivative of acetonyl acetate is a useful basic skeleton for the synthesis of cyclopropyl ketones. The intermolecular cyclopropanations of diazo acetoxy acetone with olefins are accomplished by using a novel p‐nitro‐Ru(II)‐diphenyl‐Pheox catalyst to give the corresponding optically active cyclopropane derivatives in good yields (up to 95%) with excellent diastereoselectivities (up to 99:1) and enantioselectivities (up to 98% ee).magnified image
