Abstract

Alkylcarbenes, in cases where they have a singlet ground state, can undergo rearrangement with migration of alkyl or hydrogen, and much work has been expended on the studies of carbene rearrangement~.l-~ The isomerizations of alkylcarbenes are so rapid that the additions to multiple bonds are precluded, and, consequently, there has been no report on the intermolecular capture of dialkyl carbenes. Moss and co-workers5-' demonstrated that the presence of a chlorine ...
