Nucleophilic carbenes derived from dichloromethane
Most metal catalyzed alkene cyclopropanation reactions involve the generation of an electrophilic metal carbene from a diazo precursor. By contrast, cyclopropanations of electron-deficient alkenes are often carried out using the Corey–Chaykovsky reaction…
Asymmetric transition metal catalyzed Simmons–Smith cyclopropanations
Although the Simmons–Smith reaction was first reported over fifty years ago, it remains one of the most relevant methods for cyclopropanation today. Asymmetric variants of the Simmons-Smith are rare and often limited to allylic alcohols as substrates…
