Abstract

Abstract Dimethyl cyclopropane-1, 1-dicarboxylate is readily subjected to reductive ring opening reaction with samarium (II) iodide in the presence of tris (dibenzoyl-methiodo) iron (III). The generated organosamarium intermediate is trapped by aliphatic ketones to afford 5, 5-disubstituted 2-methoxycarbonyl-5-pentanolides.
