During the course of attempts to synthesize compounds potentially capable of intramolecular charge-transfer interaction, an easy and relatively simple procedure for the preparation of 3, 3-dimethoxycyclopropene (IV) was developed. The starting material for this synthesis is the commercially available 2, 3-dichloropropene (I). Reaction of I with methanol and N- bromosuccinimide, using an acid catalyst, yields l-bromo-3-chloro-2, 2-dimethoxypropane ...
