Abstract
The reaction of trimethylsilylketene dialkylacetals with alkyldiazoace tates in the presence of Cu(acac)(2) or Rh-2(OAc)(4) results in the fo rmation of alkoxy-3-trimethylsilylcyclopropane-1-carboxylates 3-8. The cycloaddition proceeds stereoselectively, giving exclusively one of t wo possible diastereomers. Compounds 4 and 6 are transformed by reacti on with LiAIH(4), to cyclopropylmethanols 9 and 10 in high yields. All compounds have been characterized by elemental analyses, H-1, C-13 NM R and IR spectroscopy.
