Abstract

Reaction of HCO (CO)~ with the diphenylcyclopropene 1 leads to the three possible hydrogenated cyclopropanes but in addition a single hydroformylation product is formed. This aldehyde was synthesized by an unambiguous procedure; it is compound 2, formed by cis addition of HCo (CO)., to the more hindered face of the cyclopropene.
