Abstract
The first enantioselective copper catalyzed cyclopropanation of internal olefins with diazomalonates is reported. This process provides a new method for the synthesis of chiral 1,1-cyclopropane diesters. With a chiral bi-side arm bisoxazoline-copper(I) complex, the reaction performed well over a series of substrates, giving the desired products in good yields (up to 95%) and excellent enantioselectivities (90-95% ee).
