摘要

The phenyliodonium ylide 3a derived from Meldrum's acid reacts with olefins in the presence of Rh (II) carboxylate catalysts to afford cyclopropanes. The reaction is stereospecific. Enantioselectivities of up to 63% have been observed for the cyclopropanation of pent-1-ene. No 1, 3-cycloadducts are formed between 3a and polarized olefins such as furan or 2, 3-dihydrofuran.
