Abstract
A new method for highly regio- and stereoselective synthesis of polysubstituted cyclopropane compounds via the Pd(0)-catalyzed coupling-cyclization reaction of 2-(2',3'-allenyl)malonates with organic halides is described. In these reactions, the starting materials are easily available and the operation is convenient. The ratios of trans-isomer/cis-vinylic cyclopropanes are up to 98:2.
